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,
daisy, Team Vox
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! :)
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!

A good number of times, when I inform people how long I've been single (a couple years or so), they're usually surprised by this. Partly because I'm not a total schmuck/creep and also because it's a long time for anyone to not have been spoken for, at least for part of the time.
They ask me why is this so. They want to know why I don't have a girlfriend. Some offer to fix me up with people they know. Some claim that they know someone perfect for me, then think aloud, "Why didn't I think of this before? You guys would be perfect!" Obviously, these "perfect" matches fell short of such aspirations. If I am dressed particularly sharp or if I have raised my charm levels, I can also get the "How are you still single??" from people.
I don't stress over my current situation of freedom. I don't need to hug a pillow at night or go party like crazy trying to fill some sort of void in my life. How? A few of reasons:
- I'm used to it. I've grown accustom to my life and my schedule as an independent entity. My schedule, for the most part, depends on solely me. I choose where I'm going and when.
- It saves money. I don't really have to explain this one.
- [Here's the deep one for you to discover] I've thought about it and I've come to a very telling conclusion. It's telling about me and about my bachelorhood. Mainly, it boils down to this: my "type" isn't good for me. The prototype type girls that they sell you growing up as the kind to bring home to mom just don't do it for me. The ones that are dangerously good-looking and have the look in their eye like they can make you the happiest person in one moment and can fuck up your world in the bat of an eyelash, those are more my speed.
- Wait it out. - This seems to be what I'm currently doing.
- Play with fire. - Goodbye, sleep. Goodbye, money. Hello, telephone.
- Change my type. - Easier said than done. Might come with time?
I'm too caught up in my daily routine and what I want/need to do. If I worried about being single all the time, I'd probably be miserable. I've been in relationships before, obviously. I know the things I'm missing out on, but I also know the things I don't miss. And, for right now, I enjoy not missing them.
This was just to address a common question that seems to surface.
