going to a job interview

adrian_turtleI have a job interview tomorrow afternoon. I'm very pleased about this. It's in Newton, and I could get there by T in less than 90 minutes, with only a few blocks of walking. In the past, I've driven to job interviews. I thought it was like wearing a suit--even though it's uncomfortable, and might not be necessary for the daily performance of the job itself, it was worth doing once to show one was approaching the interview with proper seriousness. But perhaps I read too much into it.
Since the acute unpleasantness of Tuesday's steroid injection, my shoulder has been about 30% less painful. I'm not sure if this means I can use it for driving and similar exertions, or if I have a choice between reduced pain and increased exertion. The doctor advised me to wait a week before starting physical therapy. It would probably be sensible not to drive. But I feel more capable of it than I did last week, so I dither about it. There is never a shortage of things to dither about before a job interview. (Should I alert my references before the interview, or wait until I get a positive response? Should I wear the shirt with the cufflinks?)
