My laptop received a tour through LA!

This week I'm frantically reloading the UPS package tracking page of my laptop shipment every few hours, and it looks like last night my package received a free tour through LA!

Back where it was about 24 hours ago apparently. :-( And LA is over 600 km away from here so I really wonder if they're still going to make it for delivery tomorrow... While looking at the map to see where these places are, I did notice one odd detail:

The other Californian Mountain View

Apparently there's another thing called Mountain View in California. Did the package courier get confused? :-)

Update: Apparently it arrived in San Francisco at 17:40 today even without a departure scan from Vernon. I guess I should just take this tracking page with a grain of salt. :-)

Vernon is only 50 odd miles from here ;) Want me to pick it up?

Heh, I was afraid of such generosity already. ;o) I'll give it another week if you don't mind.

Riverside->Vernon on Google Maps: "58.1 mi – about 1 hour 1 min (up to 2 hours 30 mins in traffic)" that's pretty bad-ass traffic there!
