Message send failure

My name is Rachel Williams.
This is not unlike saying my name is Sally Smith or Jane Jones. My name is generic. And so is my email address.


When I created my gmail account, I was disheartened to discover Rachel dot Williams was already taken. Did this Rachel Williams not know it was I who deserved our firstname-dot-lastname? I quit hyperventilating a few seconds later because Rachel dot L dot Williams was available. 

Fast forward a few years and thanks to a combination of circumstances, I've built up quite the collection of e-mails that were clearly misdirected. Lucky me. 


By all means, enjoy yourselves.
