Dear Diary...
I was surfing around tonight looking for clip art of old-fashioned snap-lock diaries, and happened across this on Amazon. Where were these things when I was going through pre-teen angst?

"The Password Journal combines game technology and secret-keeping, making it of interest to young girls who like neat gadgets...and privacy. In addition to functions for setting important dates, times, and other data - the Password Journal has a secret compartment inside for treasured belongings (promise rings, phone numbers, photos, etc.) Also includes a night-light that allows for transactions that can be made only under the cover of darkness (whatever they may be). Key and voice-coded access guarantees privacy after setting the password. Don't bother trying to jerry-rig it, parents; once the password is entered, the machine only opens at the command of its owner."

Now that is too freakin' cool! We have a niece that turns 9 next month so she's a bit young for it still, but it's definitely one to file back to up my cool aunt-o-meter in the future!





Hey boy take a look at me...let me dirty up your mind...



Hi Robyn: Sorry to barge into your comments, but I sent an email to blogomania and haven't heard back. did you get it?

I only do "contract work" web design for Blogomania -- I don't actually handle customer contact and support. Christine mentioned in this entry on her blog that she is having trouble with her e-mail right now -- so you might go ahead and let her know in that comment thread that you're having trouble, too. Hopefully she'll see this as well, and I'll drop her a line for you on my end, ok?

Excellent. I'll do that, and sorry to have barged in. I thought you two did this all together. Thanks!

You could get your niece that and then later use it as a transitional tool into blogging :)

Toooooo cool! My little brother cut the lock off my diary when I was little and I'm still traumatized.

I bought the password journal for my cousin about two Christmas's ago. She loved it! And from what I hear, she still uses it. I think she was 10 or 11.

Wish they had this when I was young! My mother would hunt around for my diary when I was a kid, so I had to be creative. Bad Mom! Very Bad Mom! LOL!

That is super cool! I wonder if my oldest boy would like that, or is that too girlie?

I don't think anything with electronics and secret passwords would be too girly. I'd leave off the "I love Todd" note though just in case... ;-)

Shelby has one! She got it when she was 7, so I don't see why you couldn't get it for your niece.
