Now that’s my kind of mouse.


IOGEAR: Expand Your Connectivity – IOGEAR’s Germ Free Laser Mouse

I’ve talked about this before, how advertising and many products are almost aimed directly at certain types of OCD. Usually the contamination/washer types (like me). While I would probably not by this mouse unless it had some other cool features. I can actually see some practical applications for it. Medical setting etc.

Of course I get pretty excited thinking about what else they could put these nano particles in. Germ killing clothing. Oh my.

The OCD Action figure

I find this funny but others may not… I learned a long time ago that you just have to learn to laugh at yourself. Especially the OCD. After all it is pretty bizarre stuff. And damn, it sure screws our lives up but I refuse to let it take the humor out of things.

You may be familiar with  humorist David Sedaris from his public radio commentaries.  A couple of years ago I stage managed a production of the play version of his Santaland Diaries, in which he chronicle’s his adventures as a Macy’s Christmas Elf.  Very funny stuff.

He also has OCD.  In the reading linked below he takes you inside his world as a child with OCD.

Listen to Sedaris read “A Plague of Tics” from his collection “Naked.”
