I'm exhausted right now, far more than I should be. I'm assuming it's a reaction to the stressful thing happening at work right now; emotional tension and uncertainty can be just as draining as real work, but not nearly as satisfying.
I'm craving some retail therapy, but I am trying to avoid it on general grounds of good sense--I don't need any more pens and I need to save money for the Kotei season and Gencon. On the other hand, this crane pen costs less than a bottle of perfume... So far I'm being saved by my general dislike of heavy pens and the sad memory of my blingy dragon pen which writes smoothly enough but is so heavy I can only use it for short letters. (And as a 0K2 weapon, but how many times is that going to be useful?)
I had plans for major housework tonight, but instead I think I'll eat dinner, listen to my Chris Whitley CDs, and nibble at writing. Writing can be frustrating, but I find it restorative none the less.
