Tracking says it left Sylmar, CA 18 33 hours ago. I want updates!

1. My son ordered some stuff and tracked it

It went by us on the highway, two miles from our house, three times before it finally made its zig-zaggy way to our front porch!

2. All I know is that it takes 16 hours to get from Sylmar to Portland

So far, it's been 19 hours and the expected delivery date is Wednesday.

Where's my stuff?

3. Probably Toledo. They don't always take the direct route.

5. Well, it's been 33 hours since the last update, so it *could* be somewhere in the midwest by now...

6. I've had things arrive a day before the status showed it "on truck for local delivery".

4. Cool. I'm not alone.

That UPS tracker is an obsession. It can take 24 hours to get it from friggin Australia to Phoenix and then another 3 days to drive it the less than two hours to my house. It's a conspiracy.

It was worse when my son would fly back from Okinawa and I'd watch the plane tracker. You should've been there the time it disappeared from the screen. My sister (who was also tracking it from Chicago) called me immediately. We started checking the news to see if any planes had crashed. Not cool, plane tracker thingy. Not cool.
