As it’s my birthday this month, I decided to pause a moment and give thought to where I am at this point in my life, to contemplate what it is that’s missing. So, this month, I went shopping for me, me, me. All the items here are things I would like. Selfish? Yes you might say that, but then again you might prefer to say ‘Ah, it’s her birthday, let’s indulge her’. ...all gifts available from www.iwantoneofthose.com
Perfect Badge 7 euros
This one needs no description as it is clearly designed with me in mind. You can ask the editor, I fulfil this category through and through. Besides, my nearly-the-same, but not quite, Prefect Badge was cruelly taken in high school after the teachers discovered that I was a poor choice as a setter of examples. This Perfect badge is made for Perfect people - and it's remarkable how few of us there are left. So few in fact that I am questioning Darwin’s theory. This lovely red badge with gold coloured writing has a hinge pin fastening with safety lock (though perfect people never lose anything anyway). It comes in a black presentation box with the message 'For someone who's perfect' printed on the lid.
Projector Keyboard 180 euros
My first thoughts on this one are how the light would play so well on a fleshy surface and that fingers could glide the virtual, yet tingly keyboard in a somewhat fun way. But then, I got my mind back on the job and realised this is sheer genius no matter where it is projected. Wow, this century is pretty damned amazing and this gadget worthy of calling itself cutting edge. This state of the art Hi-Tech Virtual Keyboard is Bluetooth enabled, it uses infrared to project a clear and crisp keyboard onto your desktop and then transfers your keystrokes via wireless networking to your PDA, Pocket PC or smart phone - it sounds far too futuristic to be true. But it's very much for real, and it's truly breathtaking. This gadget is about half the size of a deck of cards, sits wirelessly on any flat surface and projects a red standard QWERTY-layout keyboard on any flat opaque surface - or even flesh (provided it isn’t too lumpy). Using detection technology it "watches" your fingers hit the key locations it has projected and then sends the keystrokes through to your PDA, smart phone or pocket PC via Bluetooth. The projected keyboard is highly visible even in strong light or in a darkened room where the effect is stunning. It's highly portable and an absolute must for me!
Pole Dancing 40 euros
As the years tick by, I realise there are things I have yet to experience and Pole Dancing is one of them; along with dating Brad Pitt, owning a Ferrari and having a wardrobe filled with Jimmy Choo shoes and La Perla underwear. This experience will give me the chance to stretch, shake and slide my way to a firmer body whilst having fun. Pole dancing is demanding and sexy (much like a man I once dated), it works muscles never encountered before and the results are said to be simply stunning. Hosted every six weeks at a selection of nightclubs and gyms over in the UK, the classes are guided by expert and professional dancers. On arrival at the venue an instructor talks through what needs to be taught and then it's time for a few gentle warm-up exercises before watching and learning a series of dance and pole-dancing moves that will stay with me until my ‘booty’ is too wrinkled to glide gracefully down a pole without snagging.
USB Massager 16 euros
Sometimes, this office can feel a little cramped and lonely and that’s when this would come in really handy. The USB Massager is designed to relieve all those aches and pains we get sitting in front of our computers all day. Simply plug this bobbled massage disc into your nearest USB port and press it into areas of your body that need soothing. It has a muscle softening massage speed of 3600rpm and a 1.8m cable to reach the parts other USB massagers cannot reach. According to other reviewers, ‘sitting on it is a slightly alarming treat for some, and it's particularly wonderful on your shoulders and the soles of your feet’. It's powered by the USB port on your computer and can be used on a PC, or laptop for some mobile massaging.
Zero Gravity Flight 8,200 euros
The desire to weigh less weighs heavy on every woman’s mind and I too yearn to feel fairy light. Send me on this and I will be a joy to behold, smiling, laughing and gulping bubbles of liquid for the fun of it. A tad expensive I hear you say, ‘but I’m worth it’ is the only response you’ll get. In order to train astronauts how to live in Zero Gravity, they had to come up with a way to achieve it, without having to send untrained people into space. So those clever Russian scientists created a centre dedicated to training people in the art of space travel. This unique experience will take those seeking weightlessness to the Top Secret Space Training facility outside Moscow (a little too easily really for something supposed to be top secret?). There we can experience a flight in the huge airplane, which will render us weightless for several minutes. It does this by flying in a parabolic/rollercoaster type curve and as it nears its peak, we will lift into the air and be enacting freaky hairstyles and wild body swerves in no time. This event takes place outside Moscow and is a 2 night, 3 day trip. We will have VIP customs immigration, private transfers and English-speaking private guides. As well as the all the 'space' experiences, we'll be given our own custom-made NOMEX astronaut flight suit - the price is worth it for this alone! Also included is an in-flight video and photos of all the floating about in thin air, bubble swilling and acrobatics. Best of all though, we get a certificate of the flight and a lunch and walking tour of Star City. Wow.
