Is it possible to be furious and scared at the same time? I think I might be...

Um, yes, 'tis natural.
Hope all is well with Ashley, Lonnie. It could be just a bug of sorts.

I just went out and purchased new pens.

I will now commence with the Happy New Pen Dance. Join me if you wish.

Anything good come out of it?

Oh, yes! My flu vaccine...

And Lonnie! Hope Ashley gets better. That vet's office is seriously screwed up though. What part of emergency, and "struggling to breathe" merits a 3 hour wait?!!

I hadn't thought of that. Hmmmm...

No Q-Tip for me. I'm hard core! I used my finger...

Brings a whole new meaning to 'diggin for gold'

It wasn't pretty. But, she's my baby...

"Hope you or Ashely did not eat it" comes to mind :p

having pulled scary stuff from many an animal and child's plethora of orafii (?) it is just what us parents do.

I've cleaned plenty of drippers from Evan's nose, even caught a handful of hurl *gaak*, but never dug my finger up his nose. Besides, mine wouldn't fit.

Do the dance Dan.
Isn't it great how sometimes it is these small things that can make us all happier than many of the larger purchases.

There's a lot of whooping about and the tossing of old pens into the trash. Yay!!

I love it. I've needed new pens for about a month and a half. There's a place that sells the size I use, but it comes in a pack that has two other pens in sizes that I don't need. So the ones I work with get all used up and the others, well, go to the "Pen Drawer". I found another local place that sells the required pens singly!!

*looking around to see if anyone actually cares about pens....*

It's easy to find pens of the 0.7 mm or the 0.5 mm variety, but not the 0.3 mm or 0.1 mm size that I like. They even have 0.05 mm! I got one of those only because I've never used one before. Ooooo.....

That must be to draw split hairs.

Using it right now. Sweeeeet.

So you are saying that there is a pen that has a point finer than the Zebra F-301 series?? Please share...what is the brand and where did you get it?

I thought you were talking pencils...the Zebra pen I have is 0.7mm

Believe it or not, I got it at a craft store that specializes in scrap-booking. It's a "Zig" millennium series. Pigment ink, acid free, archival pen. Flows great and dries fast, which I really like.

and here I was thinking Rapidograph, oh I loved those when I was younger.

Ashley is dead...

Oh Lonnie! I'm so sorry.

What? What happened? Oh my gosh! Whoa, Lonnie! That's terrible!
