I use a hand pencil sharpener for my fabric marking pencils, because I can control the sharpness better. Also for eyeliner.
Darn your sinister attraction!

Because books.
Yes. Public school, man. I'm surprised we don't still use ditto machines.
God, I miss that smell.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
pen with multi-colored ink
The big fat 4-colored ballpoint pen with the 4 separate clicky-things on the end? I loved those. My very favorite school supply, though, was the compass.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
God, I miss that smell.
YES!!!
I love the smell of a hand crank pencil sharpener. I have my great-grandmother's hand crank pencil sharpener. ALL metal. Nary a plastic part. You can take the cover and bang the shit out of it against the garbadge can when it gets really full and cram packed and no dents or breakage.
....
I had no idea I loved my pencil sharpener this much.

Punishingly Intricate
Do people use non-electric pencil sharpeners anymore? I mean, when they're not typing on a computer, texting, etc?
I have a little one for my pencil lipstick.

Oh my gosh, yes! My favorite! So great for a fidgety kid.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Graph paper.
(But also fourthing the clicky-pen love)

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020
I had no idea I loved my pencil sharpener this much.
Awesome. I'm mounting that bad boy in the kitchen tonight.
By "mounting" I mean "affixing to a wall by screwing".
By "by screwing" I mean "using a screwdriver and screws".
You people are sick.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Yeah, ruled paper, sad as that may sound.
I know I've complained about being tired in the past, but that was all a lie. Today, I am tired. So very tired. I had to talk myself out of calling in sick to work so I could go back to sleep. I bought kolaches for the office instead.
