Stationary Porn

I have an unhealthy love and attraction to office supplies. Walking through Staples or OfficeMax is like walking through a porn shop for me. I love the doohickeys, the pen selection, and notebooks. This is why I love Septembers and Januarys. New semesters and new classes call for Staples shopping.

I just got supplies for my half semester classes today during lunch. I picked up a very cool expanding file folder that has a zip pocket in the back for pens. Plus, I picked up my #1 favorite notebook: Five star college ruled. The piece de resistance of my shopping trip is a pack of multi-color pens. I'm preserving the package like it's an ancient artifact but the minute I open it up, I will have to test each color pen to find the ultimate note color. I already know yellow is out of the running. A blank sheet of paper and a new pen to test is sheer bliss. I just realized the double entendre of my title... Hee! Anyone who has stationary lust, feel free to post your favorite products (I'll take any excuse to buy new pens etc).
