I am glad and Thank you.
My other pen is a Montblanc.
And my other blog is a tumblr!

Ah, happiness is having just enough in the tiny sample of the most expensive ink I have ever used to write a thought-filled Valentine to my wife. In a beautiful, delicate blue ink. Had to coax the last line out with a micro-drop of water into the reservoir. <sigh of contentment>.
I have to say, however, that the phrase conjures up a fairly poetic image. A fountain pen conjurer who keeps cases of vile black ink in the drawer at work … for those times when the situation calls for it. Hmmm… yep, I can think of a few former work colleagues who would have merited a reply in vile black.
Online arguments are a lot like the Rocky Horror Picture Show.
As soon as the audience begins to participate, any actual content is lost in the resulting chaos and cacophony.
At that point, all you can do is laugh and enjoy the descent into debasement.

Dangitt! I am sitting here in the lab awaiting delivery on some VIP specimens and neglected to bring a Bug Out Bag packed with emergency pen, ink, and paper. And of course all shipments coming out of the half the country are delayed. I could have gotten some more replies out....

One reply to an InCoWriMo person sent today.... not sure if I spelt the placename of somewhere I visited yesterday, wrongly... Blists Hill (I think I may have written Blitz Hill).
Received, loads of Postcrossing cards, 1 penpal letter and 1 InCoWriMo surprise.
I am catching up on correspondence today by Lake Merritt. I received one each on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. I wrote three yesterday. Who knows how long I will be here today..,
Write buzzed. Edit sober.
