Thanks all for the responses. I'm quickly learning that my AMEX probably isn't the best day to day card.

Here's hoping... I got the 80k email probably 5 days after being approved for the 60k. I completely my first purchase but still don't see any points.

Edit: Just checked and I have 60k pts. I'm going to call in and see if they can bring it up to the 80k since I was so close.
