Magical tracking devices

[HistoryofMadness]

Well, I gotta say, I typically use USPS for shipping various sundry items purchased on the internets. But recently I took a different approach, and, well, here it is:

I've never had so much fun reading about my package's journey (no, not in Playboy, this is a different type of post!)... I practically made up a story about the journey in my mind.

Granted the past few days have been slow. I've been under the weather, and there's fuck all on the telly during the daytime... having said that, I still feel like I got a little too much glee checking the tracking information on UPS.

Anybody else have thoughts or stories (or issues) with the compulsion to check the tracking?

BTW Nice new? avatar HOM. I just read about some trucking company that issued new phones to their truck drivers. Each had a GPA circuit. They watched on a computer screen as one driver who had finished his run parked two blocks from the factory and collected a salary while napping. The next day they confronted him and word was passed to all drivers that the track was on.

I do the same thing H! Doesn't matter if it's a pair of shoes or something good, I like seeing what's going on with it and where it is! I hate USPS tracking, you don't find anything out until after it's at your door! BTW, are you ever going to tell what is in the mystery package or do we have to guess based on how you post and how happy you are?

Well do I at least get a hint? Is it herbal or man-made? I'd have to say for you to get this excited, my guess would be some hydromorphone was delivered by the Opifairy! :D

The Opiofairy-that bitch kept me waiting for two days in the Five Points outside a bar in Denver where I had to park my vehicle next to the Drug Abuse Vehicle Only sign (really true) because she was getting tight with that tooth fairy slut. I'm tracking my dead IPOD made in China. Can't wait to download FEAR songs (I love living in the city)

Are ya telling me it's not there yet? I hate those afternoon deliveries, much nicer to have a hot little fed ex boy for breakfast:D .

So, hmm natural and your'e excited. It's gotta be something new or something really good. Or something that makes something you have even better. Thank god (or who was that other guy, whose name that I just read) that it's Friday!

or Bob, from the church of the subgenius.

i've heard they're the same guy.

oh, and yes it WAS an afternoon delivery... yep, finally... thought it was going to end up happening tomorrow (like at the airport when you're looking at the schedule and all the sudden you notice your planes schedule went from "on time" to "delayed")...

anyway, the tracking device now says "Status: Delivered" wow and it changed almost exactly when they delivered it... i know i sound like a dinosaur, but i'm also a little high now, so fuck you!

Yeah, i've a fucking terrible compulsion when waiting on a delivery. Sometimes i think its better no not kno, or have the tracking capability. Its like watching a clock. But i wish i had a delivery tracking option for my dealer!
