Exciting news: I wrote several pages of a story for a thing yesterday by hand and that was a Mistake. I thought my hand was going to fall off by the end. But I persevered and typed it up this morning and had the best idea for keeping the notebook open while I typed its contents: I used binder clips! They held the pages open for me while I had it leaning against a bowl and voila! I am a genius. A beautiful genius.

Follow up to exciting news: I assume those were called binder clips, anyway.

So! Important news: I really enjoy the Zebra Sarasa gel pens if you want a pen rec. They come in tons of colours, my favourites are the milky and the marble (it changes ink colour as you write!) but I got a really nice teal one yesterday from the store that's an absolute pleasure.

Pleasant news: My birthday is next month and the new high score will be: 34! I feel powerful, like an oak tree that only grows more imposing with time. I'm starting to see some silver in my hair, which pleases me. I had two hair options from my parents for what it'd turn with time and I'm glad to get the silver gene.

Terrible news: All this time I thought it was sap dripping down that was encasing my vehicle in stickiness but it turned out to be aphid poop and now I have to turn a flamethrower on it to purify it.

Okay, mine is the deathtrap up the block from the grocery you like. I don't trust them ever since they sold that Scotch washi tape that turned into a hockey puck after a year.

Amazon has singles of a couple of the color changers with free shipping, so I went for that.

Jetpens' site seriously frustrates me, though their customer service is excellent and orders usually arrive in about ten minutes.

It's like trying to buy orange flavored candy. OUT OF STOCK.

Oh, and they're in Michaels pen bars, too. They've just added some more opaque gels with a metallic finish, but I don't know if I trust them to dry.

There's one called Mint Shower and I can't stop laughing.
