- Go to Too Many Pens!!
Hi Whacky
I have a slightly different problem as I laid out in why is there never a pen when you need one. Tip - eyeliner also works. Laylabeth and Rhiannon1 say there's a pen vortex out there. Maybe you have an ink vortex in your house?

Very fun read! I'm like you with the pen cup thing... except I use drawers. Same thing. Every time, I can't find my favorite pen and the others are often not usable.

Whacky, I can definitely relate to this....
To make it worse, I have a 4 y/o that never puts back anything from where he takes it, pens included.

I keep my pens next to my phone in a little phone caddy/pen holder which like your coffee mugs functions more as a pen and pencil graveyard than an organizational tool.

Funny post!
I have the same problem, and it made me think. Tomorrow, I am buying some of those little "Magic Slates" !!

Funny post. I guess we may have to revert back to chalk and board. :)
Congratulations on the drawstring solution. I have sent all your clicks here since this is your most recent post. Thanks for playing.

I enjoyed reading this and it seems we have the same problems with pens.

LOL Whacky...I have this same problem all the time!! Drives me crackers!!...And to top that off, I'm usually too slow getting to the phone, so the other party just assumes I've forgotten about them and hangs up before I have a chance to get back to the phone.
As for donating for your brain transplant...Sorry I can't help you out my friend...But only half my brain works, so it wouldn't be much use to ya!!....
