She felt bad, IMHO, that she missed Lor's graduation, but not bad
enough. If you really, really feel that badly about missing something,
then do whatever you have to to NOT miss it in the first place, and Rory
CERTAINLY could have waited until another day to go see Jess. She
screwed up, but she was looking for Lor to let her off the hook easy,
and that's not cool, IMNSHO. Lor's graduation and Rory being there
meant a lot to Lor.

That's right... going out on the boat WAS her idea. I'd forgotten that.
