USB Geek

On one the tweets I received from Pikko, there was a bento box USB flash drive. Now, I don't know why but I am so facinated by all things that will plug into a USB port. Or should I say, I'm so amazed at what they will create to plug into a USB port. Above is one of the cooler ones that I found. The USB connector actually will retract into the unit. I just love that you can wear it as jewelry and no one will know that it's a thumb drive. it's called a red cube USB drive.
I love the little sushi thumb drives. how fun is that to plug sushi into your computer. A bit bulky to carry around with you, but what a conversation starter. :)

the USB Circus Cannon is just FUN. I don't know why I love USB cannons, they are just too fun! I think it's all those years in the engineering office where we wished we could have had something like that to throw stuff over cubicle walls. This is cool, controlled by your computer, it rotates 360°, and will tilt 45°. It even has sound effects. Too darn cool.


And this cracks me up. I want a little bitty fridge to put next to my computer. And that is what I would have in it, one can of coke. LOL It says it takes 5 minutes to bring the fridge down to 47° F. How fun is that? If the kitchen wasn't next to my computer, I would SO have this on my desk.





So if you have the soda cooler, you really need this Beverage cooler and warmer. Keep your soda cool in a glass, or your coffee/tea hot in a mug. I have always wanted a beverage warmer, cause sometimes I forget that I have tea, and it gets cold. This is a great idea!!
Check out the USB Geek website for other cool items. I could spend hours there!! LOL

I'm exhausted!

I just spent the last 3 days shopping with my sister and niece. And boy, am I tired! Who would have thought shopping all those hours for 3 days straight would make my body sore?? LOL

They wore me out! I felt like such a guy. By the time we got to Macy's at the end of the day, I was SO ready to find a chair and just sit. And that's just what I did. And I swear, they shopped for another hour! LOL I'm glad that they had a ton of fun. :)

I did find a really cool Mark Ecko bag on sale, which I LOVE. My sister wasn't too thrilled with it cause it had a skull on it. LOL I love his stuff cause it looks like a huge tattoo. :)

But I think I can not go to a mall for another couple of weeks.

Shopping, shopping, shopping


My older sister and my niece are in town, so we have spent the last two days shopping and more shopping...their favorite sport.

Kiana has always wanted to go to Steve and Barry's. If you don't know what a Steve and Barry's store is, it's a casual clothing store which has clothes by Sarah Jessica Parker, Amanda Bynes, and Venus Williams. They have a lot of great clothes for really great prices! They feel that you shouldn't have to pay high prices for fashion items.

The clothes are all under $29.99. I've found a lot of great finds there over the year. Last year they had an outfit by one of the people from Project Runway featured there.

Kiana loved the store, she's in the photo above with her hands full of clothes to try on. :)

We also found another store today called Plato's Closet. They are a unique recycling store...ok a thrift store. But they stock high end clothes for really great prices. The clothes I looked at were all very clean and in great condition. And they were named brands like baby phat, abercrombie, roxie, and a lot of other really great brands. I found a couple of belts that I'm going to use for my jeans purses. Many items were from $5-$30. I think a few jackets were a bit more. But my sister found a really great jacket for $10!

My sister and niece are power shoppers. I bow to them, the shopping goddesses! LOL

Modcloth.com


While on Icanhascheezburger, I found a cool site: www.modcloth.com
There are a lot of fun things on the site, one is this really cute space rubber duckie. I love all the fun rubber ducks that are coming out, and the space one is very cute. Looks like a NASA duck!


This panda pan is way too cute. Love the panda's face! they should make a cover that has panda ears! Wouldn't that be awesome??
And I love stuff by tokidoki! They're just so cute! don't know why I'd want them, but they're really cute. Love their little faces. :)

Check out their site, there's some really fun clothing items, tote bags, lots of retro looking things.

Perpetual Kid


I was on the I Can Has Cheezeburger site, and saw the widget for a site called perpetual kid with a unique looking cat towel holder. You will have to check that out for yourself cause OMG, it is too funny.

What a perfect name for a site, Perpetual Kid. that is totally me! So of course I had to click on it and check it out. And there I found these really fun items!!

Gnome be gone gnome bearers! ROFL! how cool is that! I mean gnomes are totally done to death, so this is a really great, unique lawn ornament! I love how they are carrying the offending gnomes away. It's made out of metal, just like the ones Al makes. :)
A really fun category on the site is called USB gadgets. Now I'm thinking, what, just a bunch of thumb drives like the star wars ones?? NOT! there are some way cool gadgets that are run through your USB ports. there are Lamps, beverage warmers and coolers, and of course thumb drives. But the one that really caught my eye was this missile launcher. It shoots nerf missiles, and can be guided through your computer to shoot at objects. Yep, No WAY! LOL
So, if you love fun and unusual things check the site out. :)
