Who Knew Your Email Could Be Full

I have had one email dress that I have used for thirty years. And it’s not an AOL one. I diligently delete emails daily that are unimportant. I thought I was doing the right thing.

Turns out I was not. Deleting them on my phone did not really delete them.

I got a DM from a woman I don’t know today saying she had been trying to email me, but was getting messages that my email was full! I had never heard of this. I knew voice Mail can be full as I am always texting my friend to delete her voice mails because I can’t leave her one.

So I got on my head of IT this morning and sure enough I had used some crazy amount of storage, supposed to be a lifetimes amount of storage. So the IT head cleaned up a few things so now I am only 94% full. More cleaning to be done, but only on my computer, not my other devices where I do all my actual work.

I so appreciate the communication from this stranger, who really wanted to get into Mah Jongg class and was not stopped by my poor IT management.

If you need to get in touch with me you can use danalange@me.com as another email. You can text me at 919-452-4243. You can DM Me through Facebook or instagram.

I am sorry if it is hard to find me. I also get a lot of questions about where I will be teaching classes. Most of my classes are private, some at private clubs and some at private homes or at organizations that hire me for classes. That means that I can’t add random people to these classes.

I will be having a Beyond Beginner Class in Durham that I control. It is May 21-23 from 9am- Noon. If you are interested in that contact me. There is a Beginner class at Home for Entertaining in Cary June 11-13 6pm-9. Home for Entertaining will have a sign up for that class on their website I think starting Sunday.

I will be at the Dunes Club, and the off site location for the Coral Bay club in June and July. If you are members of those clubs watch their newsletters. I am sorry I can’t help non-members get in those classes. Only members can possibly bring guests. It all depends on the Club’s rules.

I will be back at CCC September 17-19, for both Beginners and Beyond Beginners.

To the woman who wrote me disappointed that she went to a club in another state thinking she was coming to see me, I hope you learned the game just the same. Learning the rules is the easy part. If you really want to get to be a great player come take Beyond Beginner classes where you learn how to think about the game strategically. Those are my favorite classes to teach and by far the most fun classes to take.

Thank goodness Mah Jongg in real life is an analog operation as I clearly don’t have the IT chops to manage it digitally. Wishing you all empty e-mail accounts and all the jokers.
