I have waited all day for UPS to deliver a package.
Now it is almost 5 and I have done nothing; they're still not here. I've been tracking the package so I know it is on the truck. I don't think they deliver on Saturdays and I am working all next week without any chance to be home to intercept it. Most of the time they will not leave it either. And they won't leave it at the apartment office either, although the postal service will. I'd much rather use them than UPS for that reason alone.

I had planned to take the kayak out for the first time in months; it's actually fairly calm for a change. But no, I wasted the whole day waiting. I could been out and back already. (But if I had done that it would have come for sure). And I need to go to the gym. I hate going after 6 or so. I could have done that too by now. Sigh.

1. If you call them with a tracking # they can re-direct the package
Unless the shipper has specific instructions for them not to do that.

3. I might have to do that.
Maybe use my office or something. At least someone is always there to get it.

4. Well the page says it's out for delivery.
So I am assuming that means it's on the truck somewhere.

6. UPS around here just leaves it on the porch.
They don't even ring the bell.
