Oddities – Existential Shopping Crisis

Send Folks a Tiny T-Rex

I am loving all of these different services to send funny things to your friends. This one is more subtle, including a card and a tiny T-Rex figure. You put in your custom message and they ship it to your desired recipient. I feel this would benefit from being an anonymous gift to really confuseContinue reading “Send Folks a Tiny T-Rex”

Cool Artsy Sunglasses

These are the most unique sunglasses I have ever seen. I wonder how well you can actually see through them, but for the right moment, it would be worth the sacrifice. Spunglasses

Irrational Urge for Sequin Pants

I discovered these pants while browsing some clearance stuff and I’m in love. I love the fancy baroque style and sequins and not-black navy color and even the wide/bell style leg… *chef kiss*. I also realize I’m a 40-something homebody in the midst of winter and a pandemic… these do not need to take upContinue reading “Irrational Urge for Sequin Pants”

Bird Cocktail Glass

I can imagine a white cosmo with a rosemary sprig peeking out as the bird’s tail – a thanksgiving favorite. I have also struggled with a dream of putting cotton candy on a drink and this might solve that. I bet a bird could have a fluffy cotton candy tail and it would not instantlyContinue reading “Bird Cocktail Glass”

Send Your DNA to the Moon!

So it turns out you can send a sample of your DNA to the moon (or just your name or someone’s ashes).

You can send bundles of DNA from yourContinue reading “Send Your DNA to the Moon!”

Can I wear a ring that is wearing a ring and a watch?

I sure love it, I wish they had a costume version because I would totally buy it. HandsContinue reading “Can I wear a ring that is wearing a ring and a watch?”

Sweaty Hands?

I have super sweaty feet so whenever I run across a product to manage sweat I take note. This one was apparently developed for video gamers who get sweaty hands while playing. It comes in a bunch of different scents, I might give this a try for my sweaty feet! Gamer Goo

Build a Tiny TV

This looks super cute and could be a fun project. You assemble a tiny TV and remote control that can play videos you upload to the SD card. It says it assembles in 5 minutes, but I’m sure you can savor the process it for at least 10. Tiny TV

La Croix Candles

I don’t know if the La Croix thing is over now, but it was super tasty. I miss the supply of sparkling water we had at my not-at-home office. I bet there’s some still stashed there from 9 months ago. So my pro-tip for sparkling water – get a champagne flute for your WFH deskContinue reading “La Croix Candles”
