When updating passwords for your email program, make sure you remember new password. Because sometimes even though you think your update did not go through, as you did get some error message, it actually did and hence you need new password. To your surprise when you log back in, your old password doesn't work and what you thought was your new password does not work either. You decide to tell the program to fwd new password to your alt. email address in your account. You hope you that assigned said address. Oh you did! Yay. But wait...at said address, you told it to forward to new address. So you log into old account, momentarily of course blanking on that password, and undo the forward service. Go back to new email and ask for new password email to be sent. Go over to old email, open password email, reset, and done!
Seriously, kids, always always have a secondary email assigned to your primary account incase of moronic events as above. I would have had to wait 5 days to try to rest my password if I didnt get that new email by answering my security question. The question that I kept answering wrong in the first place in trying to set new password. Also remember your answer to security question. Evil punctuation technacalites...
Now I can stop crying on the inside and wait for sleep to come to me. 9Am class will be here all to soon.
