[...] so much sweeter. I can’t live without white legal pads, and my black pens (y’all know how I feel about my pens!) to make my endless lists on. Money may be tight, but I am never without a plethora of pens and a [...]

i have pens i would make out with.

just sayin’.

RSVPs and Zebras are my absolute fave. I have gotten my boss and my bff both addicted to the Zebra pens. they are amazing and they never run out of ink. it’s just bliss. i wish they came in more colors.

for colored pens i really enjoy the “gelly roll” pens. amazing. the pink is my favorite. : )

also, i think i might color coordinate my day planner next year. : )

Personally, I support capital punishment for pen thievery. It’s only fair.

Amy! I died when I read this post because you and I are so very clearly the EXACT SAME PERSON. Perhaps the teacher in us demands this love of pens, I don’t know, but I have an unhealthy obsession with them as well. Our family calendar is filled out completely in multi-colored sharpie and Tim fills my Christmas stocking every year with my favorite pens. I’ll admit – I’ve even caught myself wishing the boys were older and involved in school and other activities just so that I can color-code the calendar by person. It’s a sickness, really. But it’s one that we share

HA! Seeing the multitude of comments in response to your pen blog, apparently you aren’t the only one with a pen obsession.

At the office I work at, I used to be the receptionist, and therefore, in charge of ordering all office supplies. Even though I always made sure there were plenty of pens in the supply cabinet, nearly everyone in the office would always slip me their own personal “request”. People are picky-pen persons!!

Now that I’m not the receptionist anymore, I do the same thing. Long live Pentel EnerGel Pens!

Dude I have a marker box that John is afraid to touch. Also he is not allowed to touch my cup of Sharpies.
PENS ARE IMPORTANT.

I am obsessed with BOLD ink in colors. Super hard to find, unless you use a felt tip pen…of course I adore sharpie’s extra fine (because they actually are like a bold regular pen) but I am not a fan of the new sharpie pens, because they are wimpy. Plus, I prefer to make everyone around me high while at work! They are easier to deal with! Right now, I am obsessed with Maxum Gel pens by Staedtler. Also a huge fan of their Triplus pens (similar to Sharpie pens, but better color selection)
WOW…I am so glad others love pens too!
And the best moment is when I get to throw one away!!!

I’ll sit and cry with you over the loss of your pens. Believe me, I’ve been there before and had the whole color coded day planner to go with it.

What’s worse is when you run out of ink and go back to buy them again…and they no longer stock/make them.

Yep. Story of my crazy life.

I cannot recommend the Sharpie pens enough. They are perfect. I know you just spent $10 on pens, but trust me on this one. They’re going to change your life.
