I love my little Acer Aspire One but I also like lots and lots and lots of screens (I still want my Triple-Screens) but the multi screen laptop apparently is coming.  GScreen’s Dual-Screen Spacebook they expect to weigh at least 12 pounds and is built around the 15.4 inch screen and its twin, identically sized screen slides out from behind the first using a uniquely designed sliding mechanism.  I guess IBM already has one but it’s just a 10″ addition, which you would think would make any girl happy…but NOT ME!

Not very pretty is it?

The Echo Touch gloves are a great idea (especially when it’s freezing), you can stay warm and the little pads on the fingertips let you use your iPhone or iPod.  Pretty neat.

Echo Touch – Echo Design » Shop Designer Scarves, Home Décor, Women’s Apparel and Home Goods by Echo.  Keep your hands warm while you keep in touch! Use the Echo Touch glove with Apple iPod & iPhone mobile digital devices and other touch sensitive accessories.

Wrote this over a month ago and found it in my drafts and I’m happy to report that I’ve been extremely (no you don’t understand me), extremely good since December 6th.  No alcohol, vitamins, eating just about nothing and I feel great!

So I am desperately trying to get rid of that “I need” pattern that I have definitely developed over the last couple of years.   The best thing to do is just feed my other habit of “googling” my problems and researching (ok..5 mins of googling) to find “options” to try.

Carbohydrate Craving Syndrome – says that a Chromium Suppliment would be good and it seems that 5-HTP (5-Hydroxytryptophan) would be good for me.

I’m drinking more tea.  One of my wonderful clients just sent me a Starbuck’s gift certificate – I haven’t been drinking coffee regularly for a while (too expensive and my roommate makes it at 5:30am…too early for me to be a part of that coffee drink wise and budget wise)

But I bought the Starbucks Via and love it.

I spend so much time just sitting at my computer that a little office like this might be kinda nice.  Maybe just a little bigger with a couch.

Some very cool stuff at dornob.

So after 40 years of always saying I’m going to get my shopping done early…this year it’s happening and of course I’m doing it online.  It’s actually been a lot nicer to waste time surfing online figuring out what to get and being able to take advantage of free shipping, or regular shipping because I’m doing it early enough and really get things that make sense.

My son (gee…good thing he’s too busy and I’m too boring for him to read any of this) is a perfect candidate for Restaurant.com because he likes to take his girlfriend to nice restaurants but is a starving student so it’s hard.  Restaurant gift certificates that I save up to 70% are perfect…besides they are both two young to drink so even with appetizers, entree, and dessert it’s not too bad.

My roommate (she’s too busy skyping her boyfriend to read this) would love either a gift cert to have her babies (Patches and Sam) photo converted to a painting or …actually I could do a Restaurant.com as well because she goes out to restaurants everyday for lunch.
