Why are verification codes not being sent to me?

Why aren't these darn verification codes coming through?! Ugh, I'm about to lose it. Seriously, I've tried everything. I mean everything. I cleared my cache – twice! Used a different browser, a different phone, even my ancient laptop from college (remember those dial-up days? Good times, except not now). And yes, I've checked my spam folder, like, a hundred times. It's like they're playing hide-and-seek, and they're winning. Is my email provider, that blasted Gmail, secretly sabotaging me? They do have a habit of being a little… overzealous with their spam filters. Remember that time I almost missed my aunt Mildred's birthday because her "Happy Birthday!" email got flagged? That was fun. Not.

This is beyond frustrating. I just want to access my account! It's not even a super-important account, just my silly little crafting blog, but still! It’s the principle of the thing. I'm strongly considering contacting support – I might even write them a poem about my troubles. A haiku, maybe? Okay, maybe not. But seriously, this is ridiculous. Anyone else have this problem? Because if I'm not alone, at least I won't feel quite so crazy.
