While I was watching some true crime show on E!, they aired one of those commercials where they ask a question and people go into a booth and answer the question for the cameras:

Announcer: "We asked you ... who was the hottest superhero, Christian Bale, Hugh Jackman, or Robert Downey Jr.?"
Drunk Girl (with friends): "CHRISTIAN BAAAAAALE? WHAT HAPPENED TO JOHNNY DEPP?!"

Uh ... we haven't crammed him into rubber, leather and spandex yet?

Although, hey, I have a new goal in life!

1.5 = Number of chapters of The Grand Prize Winner I got edited today.

2.5 = Number of chapters I could have edited if I hadn't taken time out of my busy schedule to hit 1 million points playing Typer Shark.

2000 = Numbers of words I added during the editing process, give or take. Woohoo!

1 = Number of chapters I deleted from Dead Men In Dark Suits today.

4 = Number of chapters I suspect I'll also have to throw out but don't want to just yet because finishing this sucker is already intimidating enough as is.

10 = Approximate number of times I whined, "But I don't waaaaaannaaaaa edit," today like an overgrown toddler.

9 = Number of books in the Books of Boggs series that I have yet to finish and could be working on but just being reminded of their existence when I've got so many other books on my plate makes me wibble.

45000 = Number of words I need to write on Heroine Addiction to crack 100k.

300 = About how many I've written in the past two weeks.

10000 = The number of words at which I cannot see myself simply abandoning a project.

10536 = The number of words I have for The Hollow Girl, which seems to have convinced my brain that while I may not have written another chapter lately, or since last year at about this time, I will eventually finish. Theoretically. *headdesk*

67000 = The approximate difference in number of words completed between The Hollow Girl (my simple straight-forward first-person past-tense anti-Twilight) and Moonlight Hall (my multiple-POV present-tense monsters-and-things-go-to-college crackstravaganza that's been sitting in an abandoned file for years)

0 = The number of WIPs I'm working on that are something other than urban fantasy. (Not counting the Regency fantasy which I really can't do anything with without a writer's guide on the period.)

5 = Number of times in my current WIPs I've physically based a character on Jared, Jensen or JDM.

Incredibly = How pathetic that is.
