I've been using my new Pilot Prera #FountainPen I bought in Seoul and like it a lot so far, as I figure out how to fill the barrel.
With the piston/plunger design, at first I could only fill the barrel up 30% with ink, as the rest seemed to be air. I made a little bit of a mess as I tried different ways to get just the air out. Now I can fill it up about 75% with ink, which is progress!

I know the animated cells are a turn off for some, but I am rewatching the first two seasons of the #kdrama #YumisCells in preparation for the new 3rd season.
Ahn Bo-Hyun is still my favorite. The outfit he wears on their blind date? Cute!

Usually the hall around the arena is bustling, full of positive, excited energy. Today it is quiet, subdued, and about as exciting as the airport terminal near the end of the day.

This weekend, I cleaned my fountain pen for the first time. I finally used up all of the tiny 3ml ink bottles I purchased with it.
This morning meant New Ink Day!
Spouse got me a 5 pack of 30ml Wearingeul ink and I opened one up today: Architecture Infinite Cube.
https://www.wearingeul.com/ink/?idx=218
And now my hands look like murder. 😅
It is a dark enough red that it could read as blood. And, of course, I got it all over my hands while refilling my pen.

For more sharp-shooting, there is the #cdrama #HelloTheSharpShooter
Another #kdrama movie would be #Dream about a soccer/futbol team for homeless men, starring Park Seo-jun, who is good at being a leader of underdogs, like in #ItaewonClass and #Hwarang
#StudyGroup is a violent but full of heart underdog kdrama
The movie #Boston1947 stars Yim Siwan as an Olympic runner
#TwentyFiveTwentyOne is about Olympic fencing (loved it!)
Movie #MyAnnoyingBrother : blind Paralympic Judo

Have you seen the #kdrama #LikeFlowersInSand about the Korean sport ssireum? I loved it.
There is a #jdrama about Sumo wrestling called #SumoDoSumoDont that's on Disney, I believe, that is also a good underdog series.
And not sports, but a good underdog movie is #SpaceSweepers on Netflix.

I am slowly working my way through that first batch of sample inks (3ml jars) I bought with my first fountain pen and I'm really enjoying writing with this one. It is smooth, doesn't seem to clog up the nib or dry too fast, and is a pretty yet subtle hue.

have you found a good replacement for Google Maps? I use it for directions and also to look up restaurants and hotels

2025-08-27 18:12:00 UTC

Ok, I have thoughtfully added one (1) fountain pen to my collection, so I now have only two (2) at this time.
In my defense, this one is beautiful rainbow anodized metal on the outside :sparkles_pride:
It is so pretty and tiny. You screw the cap onto the back of the body of the pen in order for it to be long enough to fit in your hand.

Huh. I never thought about customizing my own fountain pen!
I love the precision with how they applied the stickers evenly spaced. And the matching ink! 😍
I have a sheet of teeny tiny cat face stickers. I wonder if I'd enjoy them on the pen or if I would ADHD pick at the stickers instead...

I think my #kpop song of the year would have to be "Work" by ATEEZ.
So many great albums and songs this past year, by many different artists that i know and love more than ATEEZ, but that song just came out of nowhere, is catchy, great music video, and captured fans who never noticed kpop before.

These two posts LOOK like they have the same link, but I added "www" ahead of "youtube.com" and THAT one shows a preview now!

This handsomest prancing boy is SIX years old today. 😍
He loves apples and chasing chipmunks and hunting bunnies and walkies. He can be a grumpy old man dog who doesn't like to share. He won't eat if he doesn't want to and he prefers to poop in other people's yards. He knows when people call him handsome.
His breed is a Jindo mix and he actually flew from South Korea to Chicago when he was 4 months old as a rescue. He had meningitis as a puppy, so his balance isn't quite right.
I love him.
