Vonage Visual

The ship pulled in to Korea today and I had a missed call from Glenn. Vonage sends me an email with the message now and it always cracks me up. I don't know if their voice recognition software is just terrible or Glenn mumbled or maybe a combination of both, but this is the completely (seriously) sober message I just received:


"Hey babe, it's me. Just calling to say hello. I'm here, it's 515 517. Yes we are going as far as going over to me later. I was calling before I end up throwing up on Skype. I know I can't make the proms any longer. So yeah College I call you later tonight or I'll talk to my house but" 

The actual message made a lot more sense, I promise. Haha.

Vonage Forwarding!

I finally figured out how to set up my Vonage account to forward to my cell phone. Now if you call our Vonage number, it will ring for 20 seconds and if we don't answer, it goes to my Japanese cell phone! Yay! No more missed calls from friends and family.

Also, in case you didn't know already, Glenn is gone. He might be gone for a little while, it might be a really long while, we aren't sure yet what their schedule will be. He can longer check his hotmail email account or his fe.navy.mil account. Please email Glenn at Glenn.Smith@cvw5.navy.mil. He usually checks his email late at night (our time) about once a day so it might take him awhile to respond.

He always loves letters and care packages as well! :)

Go Glenn/Yay Sprint

I got an email this morning for Glenn's Sprint bill while he was in the States in August- $271.74. Guh! Usually we had a combined bill of around $100! We pulled up the bill and most of it was overages. Impressive, Glenn, you talked for 1400 minutes in less than 4 weeks. There were some discrepencies though. For example, $63 in text messages, but we have it in our plan to pay $5 for unlimited. So Glenn called to dispute some of the charges thinking we might save $60 or $70 but still have a large bill to pay.

Our final bill for August: $24.52.

I like saving $250 before breakfast. Good work baby. Glad you are home to take care of stuff like this. You are much better at it than me!

Phone Number

We have a phone number in Japan now! Well, kinda. I ordered our Vonage stuff today. It has to be shipped to a US address so it is being shipped and then I will take it with me to Japan. But in a couple of weeks, you will be able to call us at the following phone number. Remember that Japan is 15 hours ahead of central time right now (14 hours during non-daylight savings times)!

507-316-0980

We hope to hear from you so add our new number to your address books. My cell phone will be turned off when I leave for Japan. Glenn's is already deactivated for the next 3 years.
