It's that time again...

I'm very excited because I'm setting up a new e-mail address with AOL now that they (finally) offer free accounts like everyone else. I have several e-mail addresses with various providers, but AOL has always been my favorite and the best for blocking spam, in my opinion. I've been using my current and primary e-mail address for nine years! I figure it's about time I get a new one. It also contains the year "2003" in it, which was my high school graduation year. That definitely dates it! (LOL) My question is, what should my new e-mail address be? Here are some ideas... The e-mail address must contain 3 to 16 characters (letters or numbers) and has to start with a letter. I prefer not to have any numbers in it at all if I can help it. I really like the ocean and everything that has to do with it...seashells, sunsets, tropical paradise, summer breeze, sand, etc. My favorite color is green. I also like emerald green, so if you'd like to incorporate the word "emerald" in the address, that'd be a definite plus! My ideal address should contain one or two words (without spaces). My previous e-mail address contained a space, but AOL automatically ended up omitting the space after a while. I don't want to even bother with that or an underscore. The more simple the address is, the better. If I can type it without my fingers falling off from the length, I'd love it! I like books and reading in my spare time. I also like technology such as computers and the Internet. I know I'm a nerd, but that stuff interests me. Something else I've been interested in incorporating in my new e-mail address is foreign words. I've found they have an intriguing effect on all of my friends and those I e-mail frequently because if part (or all) of my e-mail address is in another language or contains a word with an unknown meaning, people ask me about it, and I have the pleasure of telling them about that. I love that. (As a side note, my last e-mail address contained the word "Matanza," which is a Spanish word, I believe. People were constantly asking me what it meant. The definition I first got when I looked it up was "a place where animals are slaughtered." Sounds morbid, I know, but I thought it was cool because no one knew what it meant and had to ask me! I want an e-mail address like that, but not necessarily in English. Catch my drift?) If you need to know any of my other interests or more ideas to create a new e-mail address for me, just ask! Whoever comes up with the best address for me (and even better if I end up using it!) gets my best response for this discussion. Thanks in advance for your help. I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with!
