CountryMouse's Refuge

I finally finished Cranford and have gotten back into the 20th century. Here is more in CM's Diary.

Today my order from Pear Tree Pens came in: Diamine Amaranth (a kind of rose colour), J.Herbin Poussierre de Lune (moon dust -- burgundy). I also got a little sampler of four inks: Diamine Orange, Diamine China Blue, Sailor Jentle Red-Brown, and J.Herbin Diabolo Menthe (a sort of turquoise--Babel Fish says "mint and lemonade").

THEN: Bunnicula was up at a little stationery store and phoned me. They have a few inks and pens. He got me a bottle of J.Herbin Bleu Nuit (blue night) and two tins of cartridges: Gris Nuage (grey cloud) and Bleu Pervenche (blue periwinkle).

He's on his way back home. He found out that the pen shop downtown is still there, so he's planning on going down there! Yay!

Bunnicula is at Appointments downtown, and he's getting me a Lamy Vista (fine nib) and a Lamy Summer Edition Glossy Black/Chrome clip (italic nib)! Also four Lamy converters, and three bottles of Diamine ink: China Blue, Orange, and Burnt Sienna.

Eeeeeep! ::bounce bounce!::

What I have been twittering about today:

• 00:57 @deirdresm Thanks for info on caffeine. I relayed info to DH. He's cutting back, but may have to have one tomorrow if he gets a headache. #
• 01:00 @MarilynM I've totally lost respect for Rev. Jackson. He helped me get through the past four years. Hard to deal with feet of clay, I guess. #
• 01:01 @raaven what else was involved beside olive oil? #
• 01:04 @dedlam Not Obama's problem. Jackson's massive slip-up. Totally lost respect for him (Jackson). #
• 13:18 A Safari and a Vista coming my way! Also more ink! Some by mail and some by DH! Woohoo! #
• 19:14 @indigonightbird Hope you guys stay safe! #
• 19:20 So tired, should've napped earlier. But now I want to stay up long enough to watch "Countdown" in 40 minutes. #
• 21:32 @KenyB yay for being safe and okay! Glad you posted. :-) #
• 22:14 So tired. Finally going to bed. 'Night all. #
