I must have more!

whiski_sourMy dad once told me that meth addicts are never without a lighter. He once did a bust on a house and there were baskets of lighters everywhere and random lighters strewn throughout the house.
I have discovered I am the same way, only with ink pens. I'm never far from one. I had two cups full of them. Today, I cleaned them out. A majority of them still work, so I kept them. Some may have still worked, but I had to get rid of them and one of the cups though. It's amazing what happens to a homemade candy apple sucker after a few years.
So now I have a cup bursting with pens on my computer desk, five pens on the table next to my phone in my room, three pens on the nightstand next to my bed, and one that I take with me to and from work because some bastard keeps stealing the cheap ones we buy to leave there.
And I'll probably buy more before the month is out.
Do you suppose there's a twelve step program for this?
Also currently gracing my computer desk is a recent acquisition that is NOT of the pen persuasion.
It's a dancing hamster dressed as a martial artist that sings "Kung-Fu Fighting". It is just overflowing with cute.
The cats, however, are not amused.
