” That’s why I love to use pencils”…Especially since that time, I had re-written my new phone book with an easy flowing pen. Felt nice,glided easily on the paper. Loved the feel. Till that time; I was in some emergency situation outside in the rain…Needless to say,what followed just broke me down. I dropped my precious new phonebook in the puddles beneath my feet. Not so bad? It’ll dry, I thought! It’ll be a little crumply, but hey,that’s life. Due to the emergency, I needed to make some more calls.
You all ever used them soft gliding kinda ink pens, that when wet, just makes a big smudge ot it all….? Oh yes! I’m talkin bout em days when all that can go wrong will go wrong! That day was one of them!!! To think all my phone numbers collected over the yrs. Since my memory is some-what flawed for names. All I had were first name associated with the faces. I had thrown out the old copy of these phone #’s & adresses with postal codes,birthdays, anniversaries…etc…
Since that day I swore I’d never take one of them pens in my hands ever again! huhhhh… My new phone-book was just a big smeary smudge of blue ink!
There ain’t no tool to fix that…! Now I keep 3 copies of my contact info…It’s no big deal to take 2 hrs to re-write, but when u need to use phone books, think of asking them #’s to every one when you see them..etc…Oh all that hassle…Blaaaahhh…I’ll try to erase this last painfull paragraph from my memory. Imagine some-one who writes a term school paper with this kinda pen & gets it soaked….that’s when one wishes either to die, or break everything! shoot not to say sht…lol
