Fodder
The other day I fell victim to an impulse purchase. You know the kind - those point of purchase displays that tempt you as you're standing at the checkout counter.
I know, I know. . .not a smart thing to do when you're in debt past your eyeballs. But I couldn't stop myself.
It was a Moleskine Journal. I have wanted one for eons but always talk myself out of getting one because I still have a full blank journal at home, and with the webblog don't use a journal that much any more.
But I own one now! I acted so hastily that I just grabbed one and handed it to the clerk as I was buying an insanely expensive textbook. Unfortunately, I wanted one with blank pages, but grabbed one that has gridded pages. (Is "gridded" a word?)
That aside, I love it. I realized how much more I write when I have a small journal with me constantly. Snippets here and there. Random thoughts that come from nowhere in particular.
It's my new treasure.
