I moved from Zulu, Indiana to Seattle, Washington one year ago this month. Zulu’s area code is 260. Seattle’s is 206. There is no worse area code to have in Seattle than a Zulu area code.

It’s 260, not 206. No. 260. No you wrote it down incorrectly on the form. Right. Switch the 0 and the 6. Yes, I’m sure that’s very confusing.

So yesterday I made the relieving switch to a Seattle area code. Switching telephone numbers is a complete pain, and there’s no good way to get your phone number to the people who need it. It’s always fun to send out a text message to all your contacts giving your new mobile number and you get a reply back that says “Who is this?” Loving feeling all over.

So if you and I talk on the telephone, please replace my old number with this new number:

206 399 0645

Most of you won’t care about this, so please forgive the public service announcement.
