What do you write with your pens? (lemmy.sdf.org)

So we all love pens for the pieces of art they are, but they're also tools. So, what do you write with your pens? Do you journal, do you take notes? Do you use fountain pens for everything or just certain activities?

Personally, I write a lot of snail mail letters to friends, and I also use mine to take notes. I've never done a journal before, but I'm thinking it may be useful in helping me unpack some things. Plus, Midori makes some very nice looking 3 and 5 year journals.

Mostly use them for work now. I don't really like taking notes in my computer during meetings, as it's quite easy to get distracted. Using a pen is a great way to actually focus on what I'm doing.

I don't use Midori journals, but I'm currently using one of their regular notebooks, and it's pretty good!
