Somehow the old, blue, worn down sharpie that I've had for years was a longer lasting and better marking marker than the 24 I recently bought. These pitiful things maybe worked 5 minutes before running dry.

I am deeply disappointed. I made sure to match the marker perfectly to the one I had - Stanford Sharpie Fine Point Permanent marker.

I might as well have bought Brand X Suckass Markers.

Deeply disappointed. My wall drawing has suffered. My next step will be to cut the tips off the markers so that they are flat and blunt like my the old one. Nothing worse could happen.

In the meanwhile, I got out a piece of poster board I had been hording. I glued popsickle sticks 3-high around the borders. I went into the closet and pulled out my marble collection and poured them into the frame.

My current peace maker / energy rejuvenation outlet is to try and create a mosaic picture from my marbles. That's more than my marbles have done in years. They are happy to see the light.

I was surprised the marbles did not fill the poster board. I fear this may lead to me buying more marbles. Last thing I need is more marbles. I'm quite sure I've thinned them out in previous years because I had so many.

But yes, I totally forsee myself getting more. More puries. More red.

Why'd I have to waste money on sucktastic markers?
