I might have a problem... (wayfarershaven.eu)

Currently inked list just keeps getting longer...

Context: I take a ton of notes in meetings, journal, and make lists - for now, I have them all lined up on my left. I take one from the right, use it, and when I put it down it goes on the left.

Next time I need a pen, I grab the next one, and so on. Makes it much easier to discern where things start and end.

This sounds a lot like me! Though I'm closer to 8 or 9 inked at a time. Lots of notes in meetings; I have a few stub nibs inked up that I use for headers, then rotate (less systematically) through the other pens throughout the day. The changing colors for each meeting help to provide a good visual separation between meetings in my notes. Plus, it's a nice little change of pace to "reset" between meetings by choosing a new pen.

Yes you definitely have a problem, you need more sparks and shimmery shimmers in your collection!

I probably should have reduced the size of that image before posting, sorry...
