Locked out of Twitter

Just a heads up to those who are on Twitter and are trying to contact me: I've been locked out of my account and am unable to get back on (long story short, I don't have texting enabled on my phone so they can't send me the code to unlock my account.)

If you are trying to reach me, here is my email address: bethovermyer@gmail.com

Yep. Banner day.

~Beth
