Several things that have made my life easier this week:
Google 411 - It’s like 411, but free. That alone is enough to love it. The downside is that it’s automated, so there is some amount of trial and error. Still, save this number in your cell phone, you’ll thank me - 1-800-GOOG-411 (1-800-466-4411).

I ran across a very cool ‘pay it forward’ project on the Ugly Green Chair, a friend-of-a-friend’s blog, a few weeks back. I’m a fan of anything that is remotely crafty and doesn’t give me strict deadlines, so I signed up!
