I am a pen magnet.<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t mean to brag, but that is an indisputable fact. Pens gravitate toward me wherever I go. They just can\u2019t seem to keep away from me. Apparently they find me really attractive.<\/p>\n

The minute they see me, they\u2019re sure I\u2019m going to do all kinds of cool things with them. Like write. Play around with them. Take them places. Show them off to my friends.\u00a0 All of which I … of course…. do.<\/p>\n

So who can blame them? But… how do they know that I\u2019m like that, before they even meet me?\u00a0Honestly, all I do is waltz into a place — any place — and they wend their way right over; try to get me to pick them up — which I inevitably do. I can\u2019t help it. They practically throw themselves at me. I swear I\u2019m not doing anything to bring this on.<\/p>\n

Just to give you an idea of how bad it is, the other day I bought some carrots and when I got home I discovered that one of them was in the shape of a pen. See? They\u2019ll even disguise themselves as vegetables just to work their way into my pockets.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m at my wits end with this. I have so many that I end up ignoring most of them. My home is turning into the Heartbreak Hotel of pens. I love that they love me, but I can\u2019t possibly love them all back! It would take up every hour of my time just to give a few minutes of attention to each one!<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll be hearing more about my pen problem, because I\u2019ve got a big one! My pens take up more room than a farm animal.<\/p>\n

Good God, what have I done? Sometimes I wonder if I have more pens than brain cells.<\/p>\n

That would explain why I\u2019m sometimes accused of thinking with my pen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
