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.
Everyone had an absolute blast, he hiked all around Natural Bridge as the autumn colors were really starting to show their glory. Then at the cabin there was organic mountain pizza from Miguels (hilarious commercial), campfires, smores, beer, taboo, cards, singing, dancing and unlimited jokes about bears (because our cabin had 34 bear statues hidden throughout). We laughed non-stop and had a great weekend. I'm so lucky to be part of this great group of people, although I'm not an AIAS member they still include me, the perks of being the presidents wife :)

Laugh as much as you'd like but I want to learn to hoop again! A local belly dancing studio is having a hooping workshop next week and it gave me the idea. I'm tight on money so I can't afford the class but I may just have to take it up on my own time, maybe even make a hoop myself with a trip to the hardware store. How much fun would it be to spin in my yard like a kid again, put on my headphones and hoop until I'm out of breath and giddy. And after watching videos like this, the grown up part of me thinks it will be a great ab workout too. It makes me smile just thinking about it.
Did you ever run away from home?
I was always running away as a child. I had a "Going To Grandma's" kids suitcase packed with travel essentials like kandy kakes, apple juice boxes, a flashlight, a bag of quarters (to call home), a babysitters club book, one of my Breyer horses, and a picture of my mom. It was all cleverly hidden under the bottom bunk bed and whenever I came home to a visibly drunk stepfather, I'd grab my bag and got walking. I can't even count the number of times I've left, mostly I'd get scared a few streets away from the house and I'd be home before anyone ever noticed. After a while I became the girl who cried "run away", my parents just ignored the fact that I left until I ran away when we were staying the summer in Virginia. I had no idea where I was and I got truly lost. Mom found me less than a mile from the house and she was a frantic mess, I felt so horrible for what I had done to her. I was nine years old and that was the last time I ran away.

This isn't a question, it's a free way to get survey data! Le sigh.
Their service is always fantastic:
A few months ago I was in the drive through and they asked me to pull forward because my food was taking a little too long to prepare, I waited maybe 3 minutes in the parking lot when my food came and they gave me a free slice of cheesecake as a thank you for waiting!
Last night Jon made a quick stop at Fazoli's on his way home and ordered two slices of pizza and two bread sticks, the total came to $4. When he got to the drive-in window and paid for his pizza the staff asked him if he wanted free food. The man in the car ahead of him ordered a bunch of dinner items but said it was too expensive and he left. The staff said they didn't want to just throw it away. So Jon came home with 2 chicken fettuccine dinners, 1 chicken penne pasta dinner, 2 strawberry fruit smoothies, an extra large soda, 2 pieces of pepperoni pizza and 2 breadsitcks... all for $4!
So if your ever in the mood for a quick Italian meal... it comes highly recommended :)
The Amazon Conduit will be working again on October 15, 2009. Thank you to everyone for your patience.
Have a great weekend,
