Yay for lefties!

Lately I've been using #2 pencils for taking notes at work. I've fallen into a habit of using the same several pieces of paper and erasing and rewriting notes and lists on them. I'm not sure why.

Outside of work I prefer black roller ball pens (or the Pilot G2 gel, .7mm) and mechanical pencils (.5mm). I used to love the clear Pentel kind with the eraser cap and the button on the side, though I don't think they make that model anymore. The ones I have now are getting much less use these days, as I've been carrying around the same container of refill lead since high school.

Lots of drawing pencils at home, with varying degrees of hardness. A bunch of nice higher-end drawing pens, too. I don't use those often enough.

I remember being required to use pens with erasable ink in middle school; being left handed, that was an ink smudge disaster, and I'd come home regularly with the entire side of my left hand covered in blue ink. It wasn't pretty.
