so this is what my saturdays look like these days

Sherlock the laptop now has an arrival date of 9/15 and let me say thank God. I found my old laptop cooler that is broken and am currently using that since I can't get Adam the laptop below 85C without it and have a running burn on my inner calf at this point. I also ordered a new laptop cooler since the XPS 16 apparently runs hot on its own,

A Woman's Touch at www.a-womans-touch.com

I may be biased because it was my local store for a long time, and allows you to actually touch the vibes they sell if you're at a brick-and-mortar outlet, which I LOVE and totally revolutionized the way I buy toys. But their online descriptions really rock too, and their lube comparison chart is awesome.

I second the Blowfish rec, and I've been greatly amused of late by their Twitter.

Ahahahaha, I think I love this post. :D

c.) the wooden roller coaster at Six Flags Fiesta, San Antonio.

Now that would be kind of appealing for people who really like bumpy roller coasters!!

P.S.: I imagine the technology is definitely possible for making laptops with cooling not involving fans and vents, but the issue is probably cost. Sadness. D: One day, it'll be cheaper!!

Oh, I bet it would, but considering how much I pay out for laptop coolers and replacemtn parts? I mean, seriously. To get decent cooling, I'd totally pay extra. You'd think at least high end laptops would implement something else.

True true, and I agree!! I think my last laptop's death was caused by overheating. :(

Adam peaked at 94C yesterday and the cooler plug has to be twisted to work. I ordered a zalman cooler from amazon because apparently the xps naturally runs hot anyway, which with a quad isn't a total surprise or anything. But still.

I just wish I could have waited until the usb 3.0 standarizes. *sighs*

Seconding A Woman's Touch, it is my local adult toy store and they rock. Sex positive and women friendly store, ftw!

Plus, sometimes they have large, friendly dogs in the store :)

Thank you for the post! I used to live near (and rely on) the above-recced Good For Her.

Now that I'm moving (to a new country, no less) I'll bookmark this entry and refer back while I try to find another great local store.
