My journal cat is at it again.

Midori Traveler's Notebooks: passport and standard sizes, with personalized charms.

Papyrus Leather flat-tie journal, with Namiki Falcon

Whelp. I did it. Got the regular size. Who would think any person wound need so many notebooks? But apparently I needed these like fire, lol. Decorating them with charms and extra bookmarks was lots of fun!!

Using the second notebook for random notes and mini-journaling! (I have a larger book for journaling as well.)

Using the first notebook for working on my fiction away from home!

Guess what I got in the mail yesterday! Wasn't sure what the hype was when I first saw them, but I've experimented with a lot of paper in the past year, and when I saw a new vid on these I knew I wanted one! Love it! Comes with one blank book and I bought extra bands and books so I have three attached. There's show through, but it's not too distracting, and there's no bleed through even with a juicy pen. Discreet, secretly fancy, and the passport design makes me feel like Indiana Jones. XD

Received my first bottle of Noodler's ink today! It's Noodler's Navy, one of the Ink Drop colors. This should be interesting... I like the value, the bottle is 3oz, which is bigger than the Diamine. I may have to try this famous x-feather one day, too, just to see what the hubbub is about...

TWSBI Vac700, fine nib vs broad.

... you start picking out fountain pen brands in movies.  I had no idea Lex Luthor had a Pelikan M800 in "Superman Returns".  Until now.

Avast, me hearties! Feast yer eyes on these eyes on these beauties. They be the pens o' the day! International Talk Like a Pirate Day, that is. These fine scribblers have stood me well, and the newest instrument makes use of a fine kind of gadgetry. The Vac700 sucks up ink with a quickness! Using the special jug (the vac 20) lets the scribbler fill up to the brim, and it's mighty fun t'use. I recommend it to sailors and land lubbers alike!
