we'd make quite the spectacle... probably the most apt description would be "unforgettable".

There. Now you will feel free to use the notebook to write nearly anything.

i also suffer from notebook insecurity when confronted with a notebook with a reputation. so far i've overcome my intimidation by not buying classy notebooks, or by hijacking non-notebook items which can nonetheless serve this purpose. if you're still worried about desecrating the Moleskin Sanctity, go buy yourself a 2007 agenda (it should cost you about a penny, obviously) ; i've got a whole stock of ones from the 20th century which are hardbound and a nice size, and they even have a full-color atlas in the back. (i love maps.) you can write anything you want on a page that says "september 24, 1998" on the top. trust me. you can even write anything you want on a page that says "january 1, 1998".
taylor, i will remember your solution for the next time i'm confronted with a *really* nice notebook i'm afraid to write in with anything other than a fountain pen.
