not at all patient

I ordered a pen from Shanghai in December (I picked it out, sadness shopping while C was out of town, and still wanted it after he was home for a few days so I pulled the trigger). Last update is that it went on a plane supposedly leaving China, on December 27. I knew when I ordered it that it might not show up until February, but aaaargh I want it now. it has snowflakes on the nib and is double-sided - gimmicky, yes but a two color pen would be very practical for the kind of note taking I do most days. I would like to have a stub nib or a flex nib next, but I had also just promised myself a Year of the Tiger pen which will come out after the lunar new year holidays in February - same manufacturer so I hope I get the first pen and like it before then, here's the Pen of the Year Ox from last year.
