Solar-powered purse that can charge an iPod:
Joe Hynek, a doctoral candidate in mechanical engineering at Iowa State University has created a fabulous Power Purse that can come handy to charge devices like cellphones and ipods via a USB port in the bag. Joe merged fashion and technology to create this fabulous concept of Power Purse. The solar panels on the exterior of the bag harness the sun rays into batteries fitted inside the purse to enable charging your gadgets.
Thanks, guys.
Kristin--I just got home from the acupuncturist, in fact. He, brilliant man that he is, cleared up my morning migraine. All I have is a normal headache, and it's a fair trade and then some.
The rest of today is primarily dedicated to lying around, with nothing more stressful than deciding what to order in.
I am sitting and waiting for my cable TV and cable modem to get hooked up (the problem is outside my apartment). Meanwhile, I continue to "borrow" someone's unsecured WiFi (I'm avoiding doing anything bandwidth-intensive, so mostly just b.org).
Thanks y'all for the well wishes.

Good plan. You should order something especially nummy....
eta: Yay! I have cable TV and my own internet access!
ita, so glad to hear it. Eventually I need to track one down out here, so I'd love his info if you don't mind sharing.
Insent, Kristin.

I have lots of running around to do, but that's my own fault for not getting things done earlier in the week. I think I should've gotten up when the neighbors fighting woke me. Instead I went back to sleep and dreamed that I found a body in a bathroom trash can. It was... vivid.
And for a random factoid for the day... among the items prohibited from mailing to the UK are "horror comics and matrices."

What are matrices in this context?
I'm not sure. Unless it's the Matrix trilogy.
Hee. My sister funny. "I just called in to work sick of you bitches."
Not quite so tickled to hear that I've been pronouncing it incorrectly in my head all this time.
I was thrown by the fact that ita and the local head instructor pronounce the first word completely differently. I'm chalking it up to the latter's Southern accent.
