And you thought the last post was quotidian.

Oh! Oh! I forgot to tell you about the pen that I wrote my reams of correspondence with this morning. It is so entirely lovely! It's a fountain pen THAT DOES NOT LEAK and has an extra-fine nib so that I can write very small, which I totally love to do, and with this pen my handwriting is just so ridiculously tiny that you would simply not believe how tiny it is if I told you. And did I mention that this pen DOES NOT LEAK, because it meant that I wrote steadily for about two and a half hours this morning and there is not a single smudge of ink on my left hand, which is pretty unheard-of for me, even with a regular pen.

It's not a perfect pen. It feels a little top-heavy in my hand. But it is quite pretty, and by God that tiny handwriting! AND IT DOES NOT LEAK!!!!!

ahahahahahaha, I'm glad you got it! :D:D:D Your friend's comment is priceless, and I can draw a little, but only a little--and only draw. I am a draftsman at heart, you see.

And it was fun! We should do it again sometime.
