 Posted: 12/23/03 - 15:41 Post subject: My stocking surprise.
Similar to the pastel pen incident of a few years back.
I get home from work, I'm greeted with a kiss and a "Check your stocking."
What's in it you wonder? A truckload of Hershy kisses  AND
an ink pen. 
What in tarnation is my husbands facination with giving me writing implements for christmas? Guys? Anyone?

ooooh, I love, love, love pens of all kinds for any gift!!
The neater, the better! ok, so I'M the freak here
I love it when BC surprises me with new pens and the like. Office supply stores are almost an aphrodisiac to me. 
Next time your hubby calls me for advice, what should I tell him you like?
I'm sorry to have given you such lousy advice the first time, Mr Akern....

I've heard of razors in apples, but in a Christmas stocking? That's downright cruel!!!

Drug Rep pens are the best--we used to get some when my dad worked for the hospital.
