i'm a bit concerned

my friend iza (who is polish and i know from maine) just called and said that she and her friend will take a bus from d.c. to princeton tomorrow. good, i told her when she should expect me to pick her up and we hang up. while we were talking on the phone i was trying to go to the website of greyhound to see where the station was in princeton. but i guess iza had to get off the phone or didn't like talking on it (who can blame her?!) so we hung up before i got to the site. well, when i finally do get to the site, i find that there is no station in princeton. i try to call the company but the operator is extremely unhelpful and downright unpleasant. so i try to call iza back but the call can't go through. i think she used a pay phone that doesn't take incoming calls. so, i sent her a frantic email. i don't know if she'll get it. i don't know what she'll do when she goes to the bus station. i don't know where i'm supposed to pick her up. i don't have any way to contact her. i'm quite a bit concerned. i know it will all work out but i just want to know how right now. plus, i would rather not drive my car a great distance (like to philly or newark where there are greyhound terminals) because it has started making horrible noises which cause a great bit of concern in me. and to top it all off, i work tomorrow from 12:30 to 8:30 in a store that is notorious for not getting cell phone reception. ay Dios mio!!
