Names

I am not very good at keeping in touch.

But, today I received the results of my FBI background check - the third one they've done on me in two years - and the front of the envelope read "Criminal History Request for Erik Ivar Hanson." Luckily, the social security number was correct so it's still usable.

I frequently take for granted the existence of people who can spell my name correctly every single time without even thinking about it.
