Best Pencil and Eraser Ever
It's happening. I walk into any store, Walmart, Target, HEB, Kroger, and there they are. School supplies. FRONT and CENTER! I remember going with my mom to buy all those school supplies on the school lists. It was really more like a field trip. Fun times picking out my backpack, lunch box, and pencil box. I never cared much about the other things on the list. I left that to Mom. It wasn't until I got in high school that pencils became pretty important to me. That's because of Algebra 1.
We knew that there would be a whole lot of erasing going on in Algebra, so we tossed the idea of the giant pink eraser (not knocking it, just needed something more subtle) and went with the best pencil and eraser combo EVER! Mistakes were going to happen. Lots of them. So, I needed a soft #2 lead and a pencil eraser that would absolutely, positively erase every single mistake I'd make WITHOUT ripping the paper. Having a little bit of the wrong answer left showing could be fatal to my passing Algebra 1. Scantrons. Seriously.
That's when I learned about The Dixon #2 Ticonderoga pencil with it's amazing eraser. That combo is a beautiful thing. It really, really is. I don't know the exact science behind it all, but I do know that the soft lead and the little pink eraser at the top work like magic. So there you go. It's magic. Every mistake I made was gone. Totally and completely gone.
The front of the package of these super great pencils says that it's "The World's BEST PENCIL". And, that's not an exaggeration. At all.
The good news is that you don't have to be a student to buy one.
If you blog, buy the pencil.
If you budget, buy the pencil.
If you write poetry, buy the pencil.
If you do crossword puzzles, buy the pencil.
If you want to look smart, buy the pencil and put it through your hair.
Just buy the pencil.
