    Congratulations and now you will need to find a new pen to celebrate the occassion.



    1. Recovered a $2 notebook with printed marble paper and it looks pretty good. Laser printers are one of the best things about being at work.
    2. This afternoon's team meeting was in Melbourne which means we don't have to go.
    3. An hour before going home time.

    Exactly what I thought! And one for my son (the Dad) as well.

    1. Loooong time friend buried her mother today but I managed to make her laugh like the old witch she is, despite her grief.
    2. I spent the day looking at Tower Bridge whilst I worked.
    3. A birthday gift for a friend arrived in time. It is pen shaped, it is fabulous, it's had a really good clean and some tlc to the nib. I can't say more than that because he'll read this and then he'll guess what it is and giving it to him on Friday will be less of a treat.

    Me very pleased. A good day all round.

    1) The roses are bursting into bloom.
    2) The crickets are chirping outside my window.
    3) A colleague in a meeting thought my pen was "awesome."

    1. Awoke to vivid pink, sunrise painted clouds floating peacefully past my window and quit working in the pasture as the sunset painted the western sky a lovely orange.
    2. Found in my mailbox a package from Philip Wang at TWSBI containing a new barrel for my sadly cracked Diamond 540. You cannot beat TWSBI's customer service.
    3. The chunk of dark chocolate, Bourbon and a book impatiently wishing I'd hit the off switch on this computer.

    1. The dusting of last night's snow has receded into the inevitability of May.
    2. My kitchen sponge is soaking in bleach - so much for moldy dishes.
    3. I managed to get my ex-wife's car out of the impound lot so she doesn't have to pay another $200 in fines before she gets back in town.
