Nice strategy to double up on pens Dave. Pretend to lose it, get replacement and ensure wife finds the original for you.....

Sounds like you’ve got a gifter pen!

They are slightly different nibs, but maybe so. My wife asked me to ink up the new one so she could try it. So might be spoken for.

My first purchase of an "expensive" pen (something that was actually more than $12), and my first bottle of ink.

 

[NurseDave]

More than $12??? Are you insane boy?!? Heck, don't you have a junk drawer of perfectly functional ballpoints that you don't need to worry will leak in your pocket?

(nice pen)

My kids have been fascinated by my fountain pens, so I bought them each a Pilot Varsity. I told them that if they take care of that one, I will consider buying them one they can refill with an ink of their choice. I am going to put them in their stockings.

Got a writing box, vanishing point and some ink today.

Carbon Fiber Zenzoi fine nib. Very smooth writing and much slimmer than my other pens. Might be a good candidate for an EDC pen.

I’ve really been enjoying the Metro I got from the pass box. So easy to maintain and comfortable.

Just don't lick the paper after you write.

Well that's embarrassing!

Wife is bathing the kids so I go sit in my chair and grab my pen load it up, and grab my journal. Flip the last entry. It was dated January 1st, 2019. Filled in 3 pages catching up lol! Perhaps I can do better in 2020.

Pretty cheap for 1 page annual journals.

Don't feel too bad. I haven't written in mine for weeks.

Looking back I averaged twice a week. I'd like to get back to that

OK, I now know how people can obtain so many different inks. I was using my go to inks today and decided I need a change. Off now to research a good brown, red, and blue.
