Would you consider me obsessed if I, say, hypothetically, wrote a script that parses the FedEx tracking page for my iMac and sent a text message to my phone every 15 minutes to see if it had gone out for delivery so I could know when to drive to work to pick it up?

No? OK, good.

(For those keeping score, it’s in Bangor but probably won’t be delivered until Monday or Tuesday.)
