Ode to Pilot Pens

I had the occasion to buy new pens the other day. {squealllllll!!!} I love pens almost as much as I love paper. There is nothing like the smooth glide of a good pen over paper. It's soothing to my crazy mind.

So, it should be no surprise that Kerry is my name & Pilot Pens are my game!! My favorite pen is a Pilot Precise V5 (or V7!) Rolling Ball Pen in Extra Fine. In black. Always. It makes note writing more fun when you have a good pen. To me it's tops, though it's not the only awesome Pilot pen. I have used loads of others in their line. Here are some good ones...

Their Bottle to Pen line is genius. Pens made from recycled water bottles! The gel pens in this line are my particular favorite (there are also ball points). It's pictured above next to my fave Precise pen. Gold...errr green??... star, Pilot!

If I can't have a Precise pen, I'll reach for the G-2. It's a gel pen - super smooth & I like the grip for your fingers. It comes in a billion (ok, probably 20) colors.

Apparently Pilot also makes a calligraphy pen that caught my eye AND! A retractable fountain pen! Hmmm...Cool!

Pardon me, I just geeked out about pens. I could play a clip here from You've Got Mail when Meg Ryan's character waxes poetic about school supplies & freshly sharpened pencils...I think I just geeked out again...

How about you? Any favorite pen? Brand? Ink color?? What do you prefer to write with??
