yum going to sleep in the background?

I have a weird thing happening with yum since yesterday, or possibly
since the last update, which iirc included yum-updatesd.
When I do a "yum update", after I confirm that I want the updates to be
installed, yum goes to sleep in the background and does not perform the
updates.

I've never had this happen before, on any server, ever.
What's going on here? How do I get it to just do the update and be done with?
