Now! This is what I call Tracking!

A moment by moment update on it's location.

Now ... Poughkeepsie is about 28 miles +/- from me. I'm up. I'm dressed. I'm even going to open my front door today. (OK. You've got me. The door's really gonna be open because the weather is being soooo wonderfully warm. And yes I'm almost always up and dressed by now. Still ... it all fits in nicely with being ultra prepared in case the UPS delivery route makes a sudden deviation straight to my house.)
So, you know, why couldn't UPS at least told me when the package crossed state lines? They don't have to actually rescan each box in a "truck" (aka plane). They could just do a batch update.
I still maintain that UPS can't do that because then they'd have to admit that it's not really the transportation that delays delivery ... it's really about prioritizing. Don't they think we're mature enough to chose a priority vs a methodology?
FedEx Overnight is totally based on priority. Works out pretty well in my mind.
Ok well ... I'm usually on the near tail-end of the deliveries with UPS ... so today I shall be entertaining myself with blogging and cleaning house.
I still have a few things left over from last week that I want to talk about.
Late Monday afternoon I went down to the cafe to just enjoy some time with my thoughts away from a keyboard. I got a few bloggable ideas.
Yesterday I bumped into two things. One, is the very epitome of why I hang out with moms and dads. The other is one reason why I don't miss the tech world. And it explains why I am so strict with my blog.
I'm going to do all the light-weight stuff first because I'm afraid that the last item is going to take up most of a day to compose something mostly coherent.
