Batteries Included for the Strobing Win.
After work today, I wandered a bit before heading home, as I was seeking two things: cute though comfortable shoes for work, sunglasses for my plush bat that I found at Ikea. I had no success with either of those goals, but I did find something awesome. The light up leash from Sharper Image that I wanted a whole lot even when it was full priced and $39.99. They had it down to half price when I popped into their store, and though I told myself at least twice that I really shouldn't, I bought it anyways.
The guy who helped me, he seemed amused at first, when I was speaking of wanting it but I really shouldn't get it. When I admitted that I wanted it for going to shows, he assumed dog show, and became perplexed when I clarified that I'm not a dog person, and I meant music shows. Conversation kind of died after that. I'm unsure if he was just left without an idea of what to say, or if he was just making a point to be polite and finish the sale in short order.
At any rate, I have my illuminated leash, now I just need someone to lead around using it. *grin*
