Closing TD Bank accounts
(Because I just found out I’ve been charged a $12.00 maintenance fee every month.)
A customer service rep answered the phone, and for 30 seconds I could not tell that she was not an automated voice.

WatchElizabeth Gilbert on nurturing creativity
Yet another TED talk. This is for anyone who has done anything creative in their lives, ever. This woman is funnier in person than she is in her book, of which I only read two chapters.

Tomorrow morning I am getting up at 5:15 to go work on a hot air balloon crew. This is something I’ve wanted to be involved in since I was about 7 years old.
