(Un)Fortunately, you won’t find any Apple Watch links here! I’m the type to wait and see. Definitely not what you’d call an early adopter. Although, I did have a Samsung Uproar pretty early on. Does that give me loads of cred or what? Oh, you don’t know what the Uproar is?
Stationery-related
Currently for Sale | USPS Stamps
Loads of new stamps were issued recently by USPS. Hopefully, my local post offices have the ones I want: Gift of Friendship, jointly issued by U.S. Post Office and Japan Post, and From Me To You, an interesting issuance that comes with extra stickers.

Pencils and Other Things
A wonderful blog on pencils that I came across recently. I can spend hours and hours going through Sola’s posts and just absorb. So much to learn!

I bought an Ohto Sharp Pencil in 2.0mm for fun last year because it looked like a yellow #2 pencil. I had no idea there was a whole category called lead holders for even thicker leads.

Nintendo Explains Where Tingle Came From

Ceiling Cat Iz Papercraft Now — Tubby Paws
You know you needed this in your life.
I’m getting excited about the Pen Addict Podcast: Live at 2015 Atlanta Pen Show later this week. How about you? I won’t be anywhere near there, sadly. I’ll just be here on the West Coast, chillin’ and experiencing it vicariously through others’ tweets and reports. It’s going to be awesome. Just stay out of trouble, guys (and gals)!
