Okay, I have to admit I feel a little disconnected from my faithful blog-readers now that I've moved to Blogspot. I haven't figured out how to look at my page views yet, and MySpace was very good about telling me exactly how many people (It never told me who they were; don't fret if you don't want me to know you're reading me...) had viewed my blog. I'm assuming you're all still reading it. At least I know Mia and Trees are. Maybe I'll just have to write something scandalous to solocit mass amounts of comments. Don't get me wrong, I'd write something whether anyone read it or not. But I think maybe it's Rock Star Syndrome that makes me enjoy an audience.

I've been writing lately. Not as much as I had previously. I hibernated this winter and spent time with good friends. The past few weeks, however, I remembered an old favorite trick to get me to write: new ink pens.

I know I'm not alone here. There is something extremely satisfying about opening a new pack of pens and dating the first entry in a leather-bound journal.

Last week, I went to Staples and bought a pack of Uni-Ball Vision Needle (fine point) black pens. They have been good to me. Other favorites of mine include the classic Pilot Precise V7 Needle Rollerball and a recent discovery, the Sharpie Pen (no bleed-through!).

Sometimes I write the most inane things, but it always feels like I'm writing the Great American Novel when I've got a new pen.

Playing tonight at the Monkey Wrench. Maybe I'll write out some new lyrics with my new pens and sing you some new songs.

Whenever I have free time at work, I break out my notepad and my pen, and start writing my book as well.  I wish you the best with your future works.  Have fun at the Monkey Wrench.

Something scandalous, eh?  I suppose you could blog about that thing you did which inspired the song "I Did Something Bad".

I hate missing your shows, but at least I have your blog to enjoy! Those are great pens, but given your love of office supplies and the fact that you use such good journals, you ought to check out Levenger.com (if you aren't already familiar with them). Between the writing tools, and all the emphasis on the joys of reading, I think you'd really like the company. Look at the Circa paper as well as some pens. Just a thought to further your wonderful writing. I hope you had a fun night!
