The glories of fountain pens:

Working on the monthly budget and trying to get it to do what I want. Painful. And it's given me a crick in the neck; going to relax a couple on minutes and then rustle up some dinner for myself.

You don't find the necessity to dip the nib distracting? I did, but then I wasn't used to it. I also tended to produce blots, and several smudges. More practice would help, obviously.

I don't use dip pens; that *would* be distracting! The pens I use have cartridges or 'converters' in them that contain a supply of ink fed to the nib internally.
