What women want

I need some domestic goddess goodies and I've seen enough husband-buys-wife-appliance-for-anniversary-gift movie scenes to realize I'll be doing everyone around here a big favor if I just buy this kind of thing for myself. So, I went in search of the perfect vacuum. Now, to me, 'perfect' means not only functional, but funky. It sounds simple enough but is much harder to come by in terms of a vacuum cleaner than one might imagine.

I really do detest housework, and while I realize that to many it will seem a useless formula, experiments in my own home have proven ten times out of ten that if I like the look of my vacuum cleaner and it truly does get all of darling Mooshy's dog hair off the couch without destroying the fabric in the process, I'll be all the more inclined to actually use it on a regular basis. So, when I saw these urban-stylish orange, black, and gunmetal grey Dyson vacuum cleaners I logged on to their website and voila! the joy of cleaning in style was immediately on it's way straight to my doorstep. Lovely. Now if only Dyson would go about making an equally stylish and magical clothes iron I might actually get some laundry done as well. And while they're at it, I'd love to see a pink model.

No. Really.
