Seriously Part 5
I don't know if this really is the 5th "Seriously" post but I'm sure I am close. I tried thinking of a more original title but "seriously" just fits the bill the best. So Neil and I have been waiting for a very exciting package to come via UPS for the last 5 days. The shipping estimate said it would arrive in 3-5 days. We hoped it would come in 3 but no such luck. We have checked the status of this very exciting package every day for the last 5 days watching the progress. This morning it said it left the North Logan UPS office at 5:00 AM. So I was thrilled it was finally coming. But then at 11:03 AM the tracking page was updated saying it needed a correct address and was working on finding the information. LAME. So at first I thought "Stupid me, I must have typed in our address wrong." But I checked and I didn't. Because this package was so anxiously being awaited, a call to UPS was made immediately. Now, here comes the "seriously" part. UPS said the driver couldn't find our house. Interesting. Why did they say they had the "incorrect" address when they are really just lost? Seriously? It gets better, Neil had to give them directions to our house. Seriously? Is it not their job to find houses and deliver things? Seriously? We even live in Utah where we have the grid system where it is super easy to locate addresses. Come on now, UPS. Then they went on to say that the driver may not have time to go back and deliver our package, so it may not be delivered until tomorrow. Seriously? How could the driver not have TIME when he doesn't even bother to find addresses? Luckily, they will let us pick up our package tonight from them if the driver can't make it back. So just to be spiteful, I think I might call their office and ask for directions and pretend like I don't know a thing about numbers and the grid system. So there.

Seriously is right!? How annoying! I'm glad they'll at least let you pick it up and won't be holding it hostage for the night!?!
Actually, when Dad first got his Garmin for Christmas, he thought it would be fun to use for the first time when we drove to your house. I thought it was REALLY SERIOUSLY FUN because the lady in the Garmin didn't have your subdivision in you memory so she just kept muttering, "recalculating...recalculating...recalculating..." while the little blue car on the map drove off into the cow pasture.
I BET you that the UPS guy has a Garmin and doesn't know anything about numbers and grids.
I'm curious why this package was so important :)
So what was in the package? :)
