I'm about 2/3 the way through this Sunny Log Note Journal that I've been using as a hobby log. I like the format, but I do *not* like the paper or how faint the markings on the pages are.

I'd really like to find something else similar, but made with better paper:

- Undated
- Numbered pages
- 2 days per page
- Each day has two columns, one dot grid one line grid (though dot grid alone would be good enough)
- TOC/Index pages at the front

New on the channel — the Pilot Custom Urushi in Vermilion Red. It's my grail pen, a 50th birthday gift from my wife, and the most expensive pen in my collection. Hand-lacquered, 18kt gold Number 30 nib, and an absolute showpiece.

Pilot Custom Urushi in Vermilion Red — My Grail Pen

YouTube

I was listening to The Pen Addict #712 to see if anyone mentioned the Monteverde Axis FP in response to the listener question for a pocket FP with no cap threads and is inexpensive, but I don't think anyone did. And then it seems the question has evolved, but I still wanted to post about this pen since it seems like a good answer. I really want the purple and matte olive ones, but am holding off on buying (IYKYK). CC: @penaddict

Kid2 is getting into #FountainPens
She can't believe that I *had* to use a fountain pen when I was a kid in school - and that I had a Parker those days (and didn't care about or think of as cool).
Anyways I'm so glad she's putting this (Parker 51 style) Wing Sung (the grey/blue) and some other that she got - with some nice inks, to good use.

I decided it was time to get Big Boy #writing utensils and ordered two #fountainpens along with several bottles of ink. 😜 (of course my partner also got two pens for her #Birthday.)

Today's #MorningPages were done quite early, at my bedroom writing table, by candlelight.

Today's pen: Platinum Curidas (retractable) #FountainPens

Today's ink: "Iron Lace" (black-green) from Papier Plume's New Orleans Collection #FountainPenInks

Today's weather: Dreary, overcast, dim. Still, glad to be awake.
