my dad/sister/stepmom are meeting my middle-little sister in reno tomorrow! i think they're staying until thursday.
my dad/sister/stepmom live just south of lake tahoe and my other sister sally is going to school in susanville (middle-of-nowhere, CA) so reno is a logical meeting point, despite the fact that neither party lives in nevada. silly geometric geography, putting parts of nevada right in the middle of california!
as for grad school apps, i can tell you that i didn't panic once (until i was actually accepted w/no funding and then got funding for a school in connecticut and then got into UCSF from the wait-list and had to make a decision the night before i had to notify schools). panic, stress, and worry won't do anything to enhance your application. then again...i'm kind of lazy and didn't put that much into the process. but that's all the more reason for *you* to relax. your recommenders will figure it out, you've done most of the work already...
just mail it all in and forget about it. easier said than done, i know. but that's where the drinking comes in!
