That's usually the case with most good shops. Hardly any will ever be available for a random walk-up. I always call at least a day in advance.. Most of the time it's a 2 day wait.

Well.... The party's over. I just had to add a quart to my car. It's been about 2500 miles or so, so I guess it's back to the ole' 3500 interval. I have had this car since 54k miles and it's about to turn over 70k - no idea why it decided to start being normal just now!

Probably because you said something about it.
