Tracking My Obsession: The Reality Show of Package Delivery
You know you have a slight obsession with delivery tracking when your spouse walks in and says, “Do you even remember what life was like before the tracking app?” And you respond with, “Nope! But I do know that my package is approximately 3.5 miles away and moving at 2.1 miles per hour!”
Every time a delivery is on its way, it’s like I’ve been chosen as the star of my very own reality show. I log in, refresh the page, and suddenly I’m the world’s leading authority on package locations. I even find myself creating a mental timeline for when I should anticipate those sweet sounds of the doorbell. My spouse just shakes their head, saying, “What’s next? A delivery tracker trophy for you?”
It’s a bit amusing how my fixation with tracking has become part of our daily routine. My spouse likes to talk about real-time information as if it’s the next great invention, while I eagerly cling to every little update like it’s an episode cliffhanger. I guess you could say I’m living on the edge—of my front porch.
This joke highlights the comedic situation of becoming overly invested in something trivial, in this case, package delivery tracking. It captures the playful annoyance that often arises in relationships when one partner obsesses over minor details, juxtaposing the excitement of modern technology with the hilarity of everyday life and interactions.
