Blind Me With Science

I'm sure I'm not the only one that goes through the day thinking, "If I could only invent _____, my life would be so much easier." Unfortunately, I can't invent. I can hardly put together Luke's toys, let alone make something that's never been made before. What I need is a scientist who has nothing better to do than be at my beck and call to invent totally useless but totally awesome items.

My first invention (okay, my scientist's first invention) would be temperature controlled bed sheets. I like my sheets to be warm when I first climb into bed, but then when I wake up later on, I want cool sheets. I'm one of those people who annoys their spouse by shifting around trying to find the cool spots on the sheets. I flip pillows, too. Imagine if I could just press a button, and BAM, COOL SHEETS. My life would be MUCH better. In fact, I'd never leave my bed.

Because I'm a nice person and love all of you very much, I would absolutely let you use my scientist for one invention. What would it be, and how would it make your life better? Oh, and no fair saying something all selfless like, a cure for cancer. We ALL want that, but my scientist is limited in that he (not that I think all scientists are men, it's just that I'm choosing to have a smoking hot male scientist at my beck and call--he also gives massages) can't cure diseases, he just makes things.

I've always wanted a chip/device that reads your thoughts and transcribes them in to a word document. I realize such a device would be DISASTROUS in the wrong hands, but I always have these great thoughts of things to write about, but then once I start to write I FORGET. This device would eliminate the issue!!! And you could have the option of turning it off.

Plus, it would be cool if it recorded your unconscious thoughts while sleeping. ;)

I want one of every invention above. I'd also like to invent something that would make me a morning person. I soo want to be one, it'll never happen.

Two words: Electric Blanket

You can put it on high 10 minutes before going to bed, and it warms it right up. You can then turn it off all together or just turn it down.

It is INCREDIBLE.

(and no, it won't light on fire either)

I think that I would like a robotic housekeeper. Like Rosie on the jetsons. Where is my Rosie?

Sometimes I wish I could stop time. I have this wish in the morning when the alarm goes off. I wish I could stop time for a couple of hours so I could sleep longer and then get up and go to work once I feel rested.
