34 New Things: Leave A Note At The Lake Harriet Elf House
Each year I make a list of new things I want to try. Some are easy, some are difficult, some are so ridiculously mundane. You can read about previous adventures here.

How To Work With An Imaginary Mentor (Yes, Really)
Do you have a mentor? A kind, capable, incredibly smart human who's a bit further along and can guide you in the direction you want to go? Despite my best efforts, I don't have a mentor. I mean, I know tons to incredible humans but I haven't quite met anyone IRL who can guide both my personal and professional lives. Also: I think them mentors I want are either a) too busy b) fictional. As crazy...
