200 words... Whatever!

I recently set a miniscule goal for myself to write 200 words a day. A goal I figure is pretty easily attainable in my busy schedule.  But, when you have to be to work around 6:30am and tonight I didn't finish until 9pm, this tiny goal caused me to whine to my fiancé Robert.
"It's only 200 words!" I complained on my way through the kitchen as we were on our way to bed. "I should be able to crank out 200 words easy." Robert being the "special" man that he is simply replied, "Honey all you have to do is write your name 199 times."
This got me thinking. I know Robert.  I know him well. My love for him is as deep as his need to be a smart alec. I immediately went to where is he trying to "get me" with this one? I just knew there had to be a catch somewhere.
I started the calculations. By my count, writing "your name" 199 times would equal 398 words. I of course had to inform him of my excellent math skills. That's when he told me "Well of course if you write your full name 199 times it would be more than 200."
Hold it! Now he switched it up! It's gotta be a new trick! "Your full name" 199 times would equal 597 words! Ha! I had him! I once more had to inform him of my wonderful math skills.
He just smiled. He actually just smiled and explained that I was over complicating it. Just my name. Just Kathy. 199 times.
The look on my face must of been really good. He just smiled bigger as he watched me try to figure out how Kathy 199 times equaled 200 words. That's when he knew he had me. I was forced to give up.
"OK, my name 199 times is not 200." I said.
"Of course it is dear" he calmly replied. "You already put your name at the top of the paper."
UGH! I should have seen that coming! I guess also well that ends well. He did get me to write 200 words. I am not going to count them, but it's gotta be close. AND after the little exchange cranking out the 200 words wasn't so hard.
Thanks Robert!
