GoingPostal01

Exciting news!!!  I have a new email address!  :)  Why is this exciting?!  I'm dropping the Meyer.  I'm eliminating one of the last reminders of my um, failed, marriage.   It's going to be awesome because I don’t have to type or spell that name anymore on a regular basis!  And now this account can become the "junk" email account.  My friend Miss P has a similar set up, where all her "real people emails" come into one account and all the store, promotional, facebook, groupon, stuff comes into a completely separate account.  Smart idea, right?! You mean, I can actually FIND something in my email account?!?!  I won't miss emails from breathing people in all the crapola.  GET OUT OF HERE!  Imagine that.  Not that I don't love being notified of a good sale or when my favorite band is coming to play!  Cause I'm on it. (Hello just got word that my all time favorite band EVER EVER EVER since like 10th grade is coming to Seattle from my friends at JamBase!)

I just need to figure out how I'm going to move a few key things over.... um, like this blogy-blog...and maybe some bills.... so THEY don't get lost in spam land. 

So, just a little background on the new email name. 

• Going Postal - well, obviously this is my new(er) handle.  My friend StacieJ gave me the nickname "Postal" um, 13 or so years ago, because my last name is Post..... Annnnnnnnd I may tend to get a little "fired up" at times!  Ever hear the saying "Going Postal"?! Well, I don't shoot people (I'm afraid to pick up a gun), but I do get angry and tend to FREAK OUT and OVEREACT and which requires sometimes having to apologize.  It's cool.  My close friends and family have come to expect this. 
• 01 - that was my "Pager Code".  Remember those?!  Seriously, back in the early 90's when everyone had pagers.... you would page a person and then put in your "code" so they knew it was you and call you back.  This was especially helpful when you were calling from a number that was not usual.  Cause just like cell phones, people would not waste a quarter to call back a number they didn't know! "Oh, hey, yeah, JP is paging me, let me call her back".... get your quarter out and hit up the closest pay phone.  You were SOL if you didn't have quarters!  And good luck finding a payphone these days. Sometimes dictates how fast you got a return call.  "My boyfriend best be calling back ASAP!"  Why 01? Because I'm number 1 of course! :)  P.S.  My mom still has a pager.... she works in a hospital and they don't like paging over the intercom.... and every time I call her, I put in 01 so she knows it's me.  Tee Hee Hee.  

So, I'm pretty pumped about this!  It's a step towards healing.  Moving on, not being constantly reminded.  I didn't want to take his name anways!  That is a whole other rant.... we're going to keep this one positive.  Keep on moving on.......
