#37 - spring new products show

this weekend i went to the spring new products show all by myself! aren't you proud of me? ha, nah, it was fun, but i realized something... i'm a loner. i went there, hardly talked to anyone, then went to ala moana, didn't interact much with anyone either, and had a grand ole time doing so. haha. but let's start out at the expo...

okay, so it was not quite the huge thing that i thought it might be... here i was picturing fancy new gadgets and inventions and mostly what i saw was t-shirts, cookingware, and jam. not that there's anything wrong with jam... but i was looking for cool new toys and things that maybe i could buy to put in my new home (in december). but, i did see a couple of cool things:

1. waterless car wash - this stuff really works pretty darn good... i bought a set for my sister's b-day 2. reliable landscaping co. - for future yard planning purposes

3. spiderman - yeah, guy dressed as spidey... in spandex... signing autographs for kids... they didn't have a table or chair for him (i guess spiderman can't sit behind a table to sign autographs) so he stood up and then had to squat down to sign pictures on a tiny little kiddie table

4. pop noggins - a new party rental thing where they set up a green screen with a tv monitor with headless dancing bodies, then they superimpose your head on the bodies and you boogie down to usher and jt

5. hot models - haha, there were a couple of model agency booths and they made their girls stand up on chairs and pose, it was lamely funny... but also kinda hot

6. bioelectric therapy - so there's the contraption that kinda looks like a tesla tube right, the kind that makes static electricity and you put your hand on the metal ball and all your hair goes right up, and it sounds like a thousand angry bees trapped in a tin can and you're supposed to put it in your living room, turn it on every night and let the electromagnetic waves soothe your karma into a balanced state of living.... right.

anyway, here are some of the other things that i bought!

1. a couple of shirts = $15 each on sale2. some photos to put up in my new home... to go along with the others in my collection.3. okonomiyaki for lunch at the ala moana food court, but......way not as good as kristen & lisa's yummy ones.
