I ordered something online yesterday and I opted for the 2-day shipping (via UPS). I try not to make any purchases online so I’m not very familiar with the process. Apparently, the company that I bought the item from gave me a tracking number for my package. Now I’ve been at the UPS site all day furiously clicking on the refresh button on my browser to check my package’s status.
I ordered it on the 7th and it’s scheduled to be delivered on the 9th. Here is the package progress in choronological order (in EST).

I still don’t see how it’s going to get from Philadelphia to my house in the next 24 hours. I’ll believe it when it happens.

That was fast. I’ll assume that the 4:03 PM is PST instead of EST because you can’t fly across the country in 3 hours. I’m tempted to ditch class tomorrow to wait for my package but since I’m a good boy, I won’t do such a thing.
