I usually carry two pens on me and every corner of the house has jars of pens nearby particularity the living room.  I actually get anxious when I am too far from a pen.  I only buy Bic pens:  they are cheap and usually work.  When one starts to falter, I simply throw it away.  I do not use expensive pens.  I simply would lose them.

Two wives have made fun of me for I never want to be too far from a pen.  I have actually had fights with one about going out and buying another package of Bic pens when I had to look a little too long for a pen–maybe ten seconds instead of five.

The other is a little more tolerant about that and kind of laughs at me.  Maybe, that is why we are still married.  I get nervous when I am out and I only have one pen on me.  What if it runs out of ink or stops working?  Obviously I write.
