What does it mean that when MVP and Mr. Fix-it went to Costco last week they brought this home with them for me?
Not the laptop, I already had that; the Belkin Cush Top. It "Provides increased padded comfort when you use your laptop on your couch, bed, or floor." It also keeps the motor of the laptop cool.
Do they never want to see me again? Are they hoping I just forsake all family interaction and take permanently to my bed where the gripping surface of the Belkin Cush Top allows me to use my laptop from almost any angle? (I'd say it's balance at about 33 degrees right now).
And what was with the snarky comment from MVP about how he was worried I might get a burn on my leg from the heat of the laptop?
Oh well, mine is not to question why, it's just to blog in Belkin comfort! Thanks Guys!
How thoughtful!! How wonderful! Thank goodness I don't belong to Costco or I would "get me one" and never, ever work another billable hour....sigh.

My daughter and I saw these while out shopping last week and she informed me that she and daddy looked at them for me for Mother's Day. Guess they didn't care so much about my legs burning!

They're so thoughtful! I don't think they were suggesting anything. (Of course, I don't KNOW them!)

I think they're trying to tell you they love you :-)
Posted by: Janet | June 10, 2008 at 10:34 AM
It means they love you. But you knew that. Thanks for sharing. It made me feel all warm inside. Like your Pre-Belkin laptop-heated legs.

Enablers!

Cute. they are thinking about you of course.
Nice guys.
Posted by: Suzanne | June 10, 2008 at 11:23 AM
Maybe they've simply resigned themselves to your "fate". :-)

I've never seen these but should probably have one. My MacBook gets red hot on occasions and my sons have nearly set fire to their beds with their laptops before now.

I think they're trying to tell you that you have hot legs! *grin*

What nice and thoughtful men you have in your house...either that...or...you know, Fathers' Day is coming up...me thinks the dad in your house might possibly be wanting something BIG!!?! just a thought.....
:-D
Posted by: debbie | June 10, 2008 at 12:04 PM
HA - That's great!
You know, I'm not sure my family would recognize me without the lap top attached.
Posted by: LifeAsIKnowIt | June 10, 2008 at 12:40 PM
Confirmation that they love you .... a lot!
Posted by: HRH | June 10, 2008 at 02:10 PM
No, see they WANT to see you more. They figure if you are comfy, you'll be on the computer in their presence!
Posted by: CC | June 10, 2008 at 02:23 PM
I will have one of these before the weekend. Who knew there was a cure for the hot lap?
Posted by: Mrs. G. | June 10, 2008 at 02:32 PM
They just want you comfy. You know that old saying; If mama aint happy.....
Posted by: Fannie | June 10, 2008 at 03:22 PM
The boys are looking out for your comfort and safety,
Posted by: david | June 10, 2008 at 03:46 PM
Dang. Nice gift. Do they also occasionally arrive home with a pound of dark chocolate and say, "We saw it and thought you would like it?" That would be way too excellent.
Posted by: standing still | June 10, 2008 at 03:52 PM
Wow. That's love.
(I actually thought my comforter might catch fire from the heat of my laptop once.)
Posted by: Just Jamie | June 10, 2008 at 05:06 PM
.....ahhhhhh, they know what makes you happy!
Does it come in pink?

Sometimes hot laps are good, right? I mean that in a sexy way.
Posted by: San Diego Momma | June 10, 2008 at 06:01 PM
That's a great gift. And it wasn't even for a holiday? Nice.
Posted by: Jennifer H | June 10, 2008 at 07:30 PM
I guess that I'm just too old fashioned,I'll just stick to my PC.That's my story and I'm sticking to it,
Posted by: Mike Golch | June 10, 2008 at 07:31 PM
for no reason at all? you are way too lucky.
Posted by: myra | June 10, 2008 at 09:14 PM
Oh I SO need one of those. Typing in 97 degree heat certainly requires this sort of relief.
Posted by: MereCat | June 10, 2008 at 09:41 PM
Ooooh! It means they love you!
Posted by: apathy lounge | June 10, 2008 at 09:59 PM
Man, I've never seen one of those. That's cool.
Posted by: the mama bird diaries | June 10, 2008 at 10:59 PM
Mr Fix-It is aware that father's day is approaching, no?
Posted by: phd in yogurtry;n | June 11, 2008 at 12:23 AM
Mmmmmmmmmm. I want to blog at your house!
Posted by: Nora Bee | June 11, 2008 at 12:49 AM
I love it!! I've never seen these before...and my hubby is a computer geek! I should be in the know LOL
Lucky lady to have such caring men :)
Posted by: Val | June 11, 2008 at 02:14 AM
I agree with Cheri...ENABLERS
Posted by: Tricia | June 11, 2008 at 10:37 AM
ooooh - I want one! I always worry I"m radiating my... knees, ya know?
Posted by: Madmad | June 11, 2008 at 07:36 PM
OOh! Costco? I am going tomorrow, I so need one of those.
Posted by: Kristen | June 11, 2008 at 11:38 PM
I'm jealous and I don't even have a lap top yet! That COSTCO is the best!!
Posted by: JCK | June 11, 2008 at 11:56 PM
This is really cool, but hubby and I don't understand how it works. If it has a solid surface against the laptop bottom, how does it stay cool? I always put mine on a couch pillow and hubby freaks out at the wear and tear on the motor from the heat...let me know if you love it and if it works!
