Go forth and fill your libraries with media.
Seriously, thanks to everyone for being so amazing and patient. You are the reason I love Vox.
I was just told that the Amazon Conduit will be fixed by tomorrow. I will post here as soon as I get word that it's back up and running.
I know this has been frustrating and I am sorry there wasn't more I could do to make it less so. I really appreciate your patience though.
Cheers,
Bad news. As many of you have probably noticed, the Amazon Conduit was not fixed in the last week's release. Unfortunately, there was an undetected bug that is preventing the conduit from working.
We are working on this bug fix and hope to have the Conduit back up and running this week.
I will keep you posted.
Thank you for being so patient.

The Amazon Conduit will be working again on October 15, 2009. Thank you to everyone for your patience.
Have a great weekend,

Being pregnant is actually pretty hilarious. I know, most people don't look at it as humorous but with all the nonsense happening with my body, I don't see how it is anything but hilarious. Here are my top three:
1.) You can start getting nosebleeds. I found this out while innocently watching TV. I thought I had a sniffle and sort of swiped my nose only to be greeted with a bloody hand. I went into the bathroom and I had blood dripping on the floor. I've never had a bloody nose before so I had to ask my husband how to stop it. I had read that your shouldn't tilt your head back anymore.
2.) Sometimes your boobs feel like they are on fire. I know people tell you that your boobs hurt and that they grow, nobody says, "Hey, those things are going to feel like you massaged them with Icy-Hot. But they do! Oh, they very much do.
3.) Apparently, pregnancy makes you grow peach fuzz on your face.
Don't say I never shared valuable information with you.
In my last Team Vox post, I let you know that we're aware that the Amazon conduit is broken and that we're working to fix it. Many of you want to know when it's going to be fixed and I'm so sorry I haven't gotten back to you about that sooner.
Unfortunately, I don't have an exact date to give you, but rest assured, the Amazon conduit will be fixed in the coming weeks.
In the meantime, I'm about to finish my latest book and I could use a few suggestions as to what to read next, so... if you don't mind, let me know in the comments what's on your nightstand and/or what book you think I absolutely must read next.
Thanks! :)
On Saturday morning at 7:30 I was going to take my car to get an oil change because I am a very responsible grown up type person. Usually when I take the car to get an oil change, I drop it off early on Saturday morning and walk back to my house to wait for it to get finished. The car place is only about 6 blocks away.
This Saturday when I was leaving I woke Jay up to tell him where I was going. He insisted that I needed "an escort" because he had watched some show about a woman that was abducted in broad daylight. But he didn't want to just ride up there and walk home. OH NO. That would have been too easy. He wanted to meet me at the garage on his bike and ride home while I walked. You must understand that my husband doesn't ride a bike in athletic wear or anything. He'll ride a bike in jeans and steel toe boots if that's what suits him. He also doesn't just casually pedal, he pedals like he's trying to get away from zombies...balls out like a madman. You should also understand he was hung over and ultra ornery.
So I said, "Sure."
I went up dropped my car off and began walking home. And what do I see off in the distance? A crazy person hauling ass on a mountain bike in cargo shorts, an undershirt, crocs and let's not forget, the winter hat. It was pretty chilly out.
This is my man.
On August 14th the husband and I celebrated our 5 year wedding anniversary. He sent me flowers at work, the same flowers I had in my wedding bouquet. I've never had flowers delivered at work.
In celebration of our wedding, here is my favorite picture of us at the reception.
You know that song "Boogie Shoes?" That is totally one of our songs.
Some of you may have noticed that right now you cannot add books from Amazon to your Vox library. Giving people a glimpse into what's on your night stand is important to many of you, so I just wanted to reassure you that we are doing our best to get this bug fixed. I'll keep you posted.
So sorry for the inconvenience.
Hope you have a great weekend!
