This is a new world of shipping. There isn't anything that I need so badly that I can't wait for it.
Amazon used to have free 2 day shipping, and was even starting free next day shipping. Now it is free whenever it gets there shipping. There isn't anything perishable in there, but it took a little getting used to.
Ordered some bookends. According to Amazon, they will get here in 10 days. I don't mind because I don't need the bookends that bad.
It is interesting to look at the tracking sometimes, and my packages will just decide to stay somewhere for a while before moving on.
It is kind of interesting that the shipping services like UPS and FedEx are the worst about this. When my packages have been sent USPS, they zip right through. The Post Office has the best and fastest service, and FedEx has the worst long distance shipping.
I get a subscription box from AllTrue, and I read the screaming about people's boxes being stuck for a week in a FedEx warehouse in Kansas. It was just some bowls, a bag, a table runner, and some moisturizers, but hysterical people NEED IT NOW!
I've kind of liked the slowdown of society. I find it a little calming.
