my beating heart
When I read Dav's post on a stuffed heart with a computer-controlled heartbeat, I knew I had to get one. One of us suffers nightmares and the other insomnia, so anything that seems soothing in a computer-gee-whiz-how-cool way seemed like the perfect little gift.
At first, it seemed a little too big - I did order the larger size, too. In retrospect, it's kind of perfect in size. I've handed it to friends who come over in sour moods, a friend who has just got done with three days of international travel and the indignities thereof, to myself when I'm in need of a little push to get into a good meditative state. I just sent one to a friend in the hospital too.*
You can keep up with them on their TypePad blog, which has some great photos of people hugging the heart in the middle of conferences - they look like little islands of happy.
*worth mentioning - their customer service is fantastic.
