Wooooaaahhh Daddy….

For the day when your achin’ back just can’t take anymore, but your kids just can’t get enough…

The Daddle.

If mom wears it is it the Momdle?

What about the Grandpadle?
(Nevermind, that sounds like something that would happen if Grandpa’s Depends fail.)

Fine. I bought a Snuggie.

For Dogs.

IMG_5545IMG_5544

That’s right, I admit it, since becoming a dog owner I’ve actually broken down and purchased some of the things I found totally ridiculous before becoming a dog owner.

I will allow five minutes of public mocking – starting now.

There now, do you feel better?

Even with this public admission I promise now to never, ever purchase some of the other things featured – such as Freeze Poop Spray, Poop Tent, or Dog Powered Scooter.

Or this…

(puppy Tweets – the electronic collar that translates your dog’s bark into English phrases…and then tweets them.)

Because I have a hard enough time maintaining my own blog, let alone one for Summer.

Found here:http://puppytweet.com/ and around the necks of poor defenseless puppies everywhere.  Or nowhere.  Or just in Japan.

What the….????

I like my nails as much as the next girl…

of course if the next girl is THIS girl, maybe like like my nails MORE than she does, because I’m not sure this is completely sanitary or kind, or productive, or…sane???

Just sayin’.

Diamonds? Cubic Zircon? No…

It’s Grandma.

Or Fido.

Or Uncle Ste-vah.

Whatever you wish.

image

You see – you can send them the ashes of your recently (or not so recently) deceased loved one, and they will create a piece of Gemstone jewelry for you to wear.

Everyday.

So Grandma can always be close to your heart…

Or Fido can rest comfortably around your neck.

In gemstone form, of course.

Think – diamonds…with floating imperfections. (Although of course I would never call your Uncle Ste-vah an “imperfection”)

found at http://www.mycrystalcompanion.com and submitted by http://www.mycrystalcompanion.com, and I quote “we do have a certain sense of humor about our product and that is what has prompted us to contact you”

Thank you for contacting me…really – thank you.

The Concept is Right – But The Execution is Lacking…

I love the dollar store.

There are so many awesome finds there for so many things.  Stocking stuffers – for one – can be found a plenty at the dollar store.

Why do they have such great deals?  

Usually it’s because some manufacturer has misprinted a label, a store has ordered too many of a product, and other times it’s simply because a product did not sell – no matter what they did to promote it.  A lot of times, things end up at the dollar store because they have some not too obvious design flaws that only stand out when you stare at it for an extended period of time…

image

Do you see it yet?  It’s like Trouble only with Race Cars right?

image

Um yea – that’ll spread Holiday Cheer alright…

 

*shudder* excuse me while I go wash the “ick” off…

Retro is all the rage, but…

Just as I think we should really leave most 80’s fashions in the 80’s…I’m pretty sure the clunky phone handset can stay there too.

I don’t know about you, but when I’m looking for a headset for my phone, I’m looking for something a little more hands free and barely noticeable.  (I have so much fun having conversations with people on the phone and people in the store wonder if I am talking to them or not…really, try it – it’s great fun for a Friday night…in related news, I have no life.)

image

Anywho – if you want this thing – I suppose for the novelty of it all – you can get it here

Just try not to use it while driving.  I’m pretty sure that would get you pulled over.  Not because you were on the phone mind you, mostly because you might be suspected of being under the influence.  Just Sayin’.

Time to Trim the Tree…

When trimming your tree this year – please, don’t forget the ornaments that have somehow journeyed here from the island of misfit toys…

image
Yes, that’s a pickle.  Because no tree is complete without a pickle.

image 
Because there might just be one child in your house who isn’t yet afraid of clowns…yet.

image
Kids…did you ever wonder how Santa could “see you when you’re sleeping and know when you’re awake….” 

And don’t even get me started on the whole selection of “Pornaments” offered by Spencer’s Gifts.  Yea, I totally am NOT going there…

And finally – just to prove that our UPS guys have an amazing sense of humor – because you know they’d have to in a season of a million packages…

image
Ahhh…the beauty, the splendor – the – smell of cardboard.

Merry Christmas Shoppers!

Special thanks to Bronners, Spencers Gifts, and UPS for these, um … fabulous additions to the holiday decor.  No, really.  Thank you.  Without you guys – I’d really have nothing to do.
