I have the most awesome news!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

I've been tracking the shipping progress of my new Lenovo laptop.....

Just today I saw it originate in Hong Kong...

Then it went to Anchorage!

And just a bit ago, it arrived in Ontario, CA!

I should have it in the next few days!

Celebrate with me!

3. Ontario isn't that far away Peg!

Quick, get in your car, and go pick it up!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

4. ROFLMAO!

Oh, yeah!

Let's see......it's midnight!

And it's dark!

And I need to go to bed pretty soon!

Nahhh.......I'll let UPS deliver it...

You crack me up!

:rofl: :rofl:

[Broken_Hero]

5. I imagine, you are about two hours away from

Ontario...or further/closer? I've only been there a couple of times...

[CaliforniaPeggy]

6. You know, I'm not really sure......

It probably is about 50 miles.....

And that can take anywhere from 45 minutes to several hours to traverse, depending on traffic!

Anyhoo, the delivery is free, so they're going to deliver it!

UPS knows where I am better than I know where they are!

7. why would they go from Alaska to Canada before going to California?

:silly:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

8. My dear hfojvt!

They didn't go to Canada, silly!

This Ontario is in CALIFORNIA!

And as to why they flew into Alaska, who knows?

I sure as heck don't........ :shrug:

Thanks for coming by this morning, sweetie! :hi:

[hfojvt]

9. but Ontario is 412,582 square miles

it could not possibly be put into California much less Orange County. Not without a TARDIS anyway. The TARDIS, in case you didn't know, is bigger inside than it is outside - because it transforms space.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

14. My dear hfojvt!

You are on a roll, indeed!

This Ontario is a CITY, not a state!

And besides, now my laptop is here in the city of Gardena....

I will have my new toy today! :bounce: :bounce:

12. What airline? Tokyo to ANC is standard route.

Tokyo to LA or SFO often fuel limited due to headwinds.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

15. My dear trof!

I believe that UPS has its own fleet of planes.......

And my tracking sheet doesn't show them stopping in Tokyo........

Although maybe they wouldn't show those stops...

I hear you about headwinds.....maybe that's why they took a more circular route, to avoid those?

Anyway, it's coming!

[CaliforniaPeggy]

18. My dear AZDemDist6!

Oh, I'm sorry about yours being in the shop........

You'll have to come up with some much better reasons for a shiny new one!
