Change your contact notification_period to none. A basic assumption is that if you tell nagios that you're a notification contact for a service, you want to get notified about it when there's a problem ;) Exceptions to that are few and far between for the majority of users so there isn't an option in the GUI to disable notification on a per-contact basis.
