Hey! I hope you are feeling better today...I am, thanks...I just have some times when I REALLY miss Mom and want to talk to her soooo badly, but can't.
What kind of pen did you get?
One of these:

It's a space pen...supposedly writes in about any kind of situation: freezing cold, extreme heat, underwater, etc...without smearing or dripping. I mostly just wanted it because it's purty, though, and is really small (about half this size) when you take the cap off the end (where it is in the picture) and put it on.
Steve has a pen like that! When he went to work for the city, he just got a job at the absolute entry level. He had a degree in agriculture and got a job weeding the roses in one of the Tulsa parks! Naturally, it didn't take him long to move out of that job, and within about 8 months he got a new position and it was a huge leap in pay and responiblity. The guys that he pulled weeds with all got together and got him this pen!
Apparently Jerry Seinfeld has one and Steve just loves Seinfeld and it was a great gift to get him.
