And now, not so deep thoughts - Page 30

Decisions are hard. Even after they're made, they're still hard. If it weren't for the conventions of "my mind is made up" I'd never decide anything at all.

Who knew that the aquisition of a quality writing implement would be the catalyst for me to become organized at work?

Ah, but is said writing implement swanky? If you need to add swankage to your pens or mechanical pencils, €uroMeinke and NA can help with that.

Have I mentioned how much I love my beautiful Boston-aquired pen?

If I was rich, I'd totally buy you that expensive orange one you liked. But I ain't. Can I interest you in a black Pilot G-2 O7 gel pen?

The €uroMeinkester has a cool silver retro Tomorrowland looking pen. Love it.

I have discovered my FAVORITE cheap pen.

Bic Ultra Round Stic Grip. Thick, dark lines, just like I like 'em. The shade of blue is perfect.

I'd like a nice pricey heavy pen but my current job scenario would mean me losing it quickly. Perhaps after I'm settled at the new library.

It is pretty swanky. The swank factor is diminished a tad by the company logo on it, but it least it's a tastefully done logo.

And, if you've got a quality pen, might I recommend www.freerefill.com. 5 quality ink refills for shipping only ($5). Damn good deal if you've got a pen that's worth keeping around for a while.

I DREAM about that pen, but there is not way in HELL I can justify it. At least, not at the moment. But, man, is it a thing if beauty.

Chris is loving his new pens. I bought him a pen box a few years back to keep all of his cool pens. I think it is almost filled. If we end up back in Boston, I'm going to be visiting my pen again.

It's funny the things we end up collecting. I bought another watch yesterday too.

Pens
Watches
CDs
Books
1960's and 70's Disneyland stuff
Cats

I have a couple of those. My favorite is the G2 07 gel pen, black. Love those. I'm hoarding a whole boxful of them in my desk.

My favorite pen one that has a koa wood body that Ralphie bought me in Hawai'i. I don't use it, of course, because it's special.
