What, did you think I'd make you guys do something I wouldn't?
Observations:
Teal ink
retractable
fine point
moderately expensive
smooth writing
stunningly attractive barrel (what with the teal grip and all!)
ink's almost gone
Inferences:
I prefer things that are aesthetically pleasing, and I'm willing to pay a little extra for them. Sure, I could write with a ball point pen--and I will in a fix--but given my druthers, I prefer the smooth luxury of a Pilot G-2. That's probably because I write a lot, and I know that one of the important keys to keep a writer at her craft is to love her tools. I also have those expensive Moleskine journals, though I don't like them as much as the Pilot fine points. I can write on just about anything, but I prefer my words be written in smooth ink, preferably in some wild color. Because I'm not boring and I don't think my writing should be either.
Or perhaps my pen communicates that I'm a child of the 90s, back when all kids in elementary school regardless of gender reveled in brightly colored anything.
