While planning a trip to Indianapolis to visit a friend next weekend, he sent an email saying that I should arrive late afternoon, about 1:00.

I am rather curious as to when 1:00 became late afternoon? Just as The weekend has taken up Friday for some people, so has late afternoon snatched up early afternoon it appears.

I would have been somewhat confused also, but perhaps your friend misspoke. Of course I am not sure since I don't know your friend nor did I hear the actual conversation. One o'clock is definitely not late afternoon to me. His/her implied meaning with one o'clock is completely contradictory with late afternoon in my opinion. Now I would be confused on whether showing up around one would be acceptable or if would be unacceptable because it is not late afternoon. Good luck.
