Breathe. Take one step at a time. Don't sweat the small stuff. You're not getting older, you are only moving through time. Be calm and positive.

The crappy iPod photo doesn't do the rainbow cap on my new Parker 61 justice, of course.

My first levenger pen - it is the one from FPGeeks: http://fpgeeks.com/2013/12/win-this-levenger-prize-package-a-true-writer-silver-anniversary-fountain-pen-and-6-bottled-inks/

Made the nib a little wetter already.... But I am starting to like the pen. Feels good in the hand.

Nice, I have same pen.... somewhere... To me this pen feels like a modernized version of the Esterbrook J.... size, shape, feel...

If you think everything is going well... you obviously have no idea what is really going on!

Austrian humor simply escapes me.

Not everybody shares the same humor, but this is ok.

Mine is for sure not representative for Austria, as well as yours is most likely not for Americans. ;)

 

Maybe it was not really funny for everyone, but for me joking about cosmetic surgeries as well as prudery is always worth to do it.

 

Did you know that only in 2012 in the US more than 330.000 breast "augmentations" were made? (Not talking about reconstructive measures)

 

For me incredible that so many women chasing a more than questionable beauty ideal projected by media and marketing.

 

Performed by Dr. Frankensteins, sorry meant cosmetic surgeons which often renders wavering persons to artificial Barbie like creatures.

 

IMO every woman has it's own special very personal beauty as nature made them, which for sure don't need such measures.

Pterodactylus, that's a corker. Beautiful colours.

Don't you just LOVE how Leipziger Schwarz plays with water . . . ?!!

Stunning pen, nib and penmanship!

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

Create a Ghostly Avatar and I'll send you a letter. Check out some Ink comparisons: The Great PPS Comparison 

Don't know where to start?  Look at the Inky Topics O'day.  Then, see inks sorted by color: Blue Purple Brown Red Green Dark Green Orange Black Pinks Yellows Blue-Blacks Grey/Gray UVInks Turquoise/Teal MURKY

Trying out a few new pens tonight...

fpn_1391921072__purchased.jpg

WEAREVER PACEMAKER, SHEAFFER CADET, SHEAFFER CRAFTSMAN, MYSTERY PEN

 

and of course they needed a little work..

fpn_1391921243__sacked.jpg

 

reassembled and ready to go...

fpn_1391921300__nibshot.jpg

 

The wearever pacemaker has a clear feed that is pretty cool, shows the inked color... didn't somebody else just market this as a new idea? fpn_1391921434__wearever_nib.jpg

 

Excuse the poor penmanship, it has definately been a long week today!

fpn_1391921504__note.jpg

 

Yes, the four pens and a new OS bottle of super quink all for ~$17... the quink has a price tag of 39cents on it, I broke the seal and suspect it will be a quick run through that ink as I really like the vintage blue blacks..

If you think everything is going well... you obviously have no idea what is really going on!
