"... Is that a real email address?"

A note regarding my blog title: Rainey.me is my vanity domain.

Rainey is the short-form of Lorraine that I use in my family. (Mostly because I have a twin named Laureen who goes by Laurie.)

.me is the country code top-level domain for Montenegro.

I registered the vanity domain name rainey.me in 2008. I use it primarily as a custom email domain, and merely redirect the URL rainey.me to whichever web presence I favor at the moment. (At the moment, that URL redirects to a personal landing page.)

 It amuses me when I sign up for something as me@rainey.me and get the response, " ... Is that a real email address?"
