danceswithgaryThis whole personal challenge thing would work so much better if I wasn't so easily distracted...ooh, look shiny!
*runs off to read new flist post*
Where was I? Oh, yeah. My total inability to stay focused. Um wait here, I'll be right back.
*makes a new CLex icon*
So, anyway. I knew it was unrealistic, but I still thought I'd do a little better than I have so far.
In fact, 5950 words in 2 days is not even close to my personal best. In order to make this happen, I'd need to write...
*whips out Excel spreadsheet*
...1450 words per hour over the next 40 hours to make it work, that's...
*punches in another formula*
...23 words a minute or 1 word every two seconds.
That proves it - mathematical and physical impossibility.
Why didn't I do that two days ago? *rolls eyes at lazy stats geek self*
Anyone got a time machine or personal stasis chamber they're not using and I can borrow?
Yeah, I didn't think so. Selfish gits.
