it's always the simple things
I mostly use a black BIC M10 clic pen when I write on my journal. I've tried out different kinds over the past ten years and this is the one that feels good to me. it is cheap, fast writing, retractable (so there are no caps to lose) and I like the connection and texture of the pen on paper. it is my tool, my old companion, my voice.
a few days ago Will played with my pen while I was reading on my bed, and broke it. Sean immediately asked me to give it to him, went into the entry hall, rummaged through the junk drawer and sat at the kitchen table for a while. he came back in my room beaming at me with a face of suppressed satisfaction at something.
he had fixed it with a piece of tape.
