I reccommend a lacrosse ball for your bouncy ball. There are some baseball-sized squeezable balls sometimes called stress-relief, but you may have trouble running one down.

Instead of a power strip, see if you can find a power cube to multiply the outlet count in your room. Also avoid plugging into an outlet which has a lamp that is controlled by a wall switch at the door. Your electric device(s) that you were expecting to be charged overnight may be turned off by accidental switch movement. Murphy stalks the entire 'verse. Some even say e=mc**2 fails when you least expect it!
