I felt I should mention the Fountain Pen Lady. This is a woman I know. She collects antique fountain pens. Apparently a lot of people do it. You can find sites online for fountain pen collectors. Moxt of The Fountain Pen Lady's conversation concerns foutain pens. Pens she's bought. Pens she didn't buy. Ink she's bought to use in her pens. Ink she didn't buy to use in her pens. Pens she would like to buy. Pens other people bought. Well you get the idea. It's just a bit maddening. I can't imagine being that obsessed with fountain pens, or believing that the rest of the world finds them as fascinating. But there she is.
