Quick update: Here's my post from Vegas a few short months ago. Sadly, all I had with me were 4 pens and two pencils for 5 days in the desert. It was clear that I had lost some faith in my ability to love pens and the need for writing material.
Bob Dylan (I know, I know) wrote that "The Times they are a Changing" and they definitely were. Here we are now for a quick 2 night business trip to Chicago and there's a huge difference. 19 Pens (not all shown) and 2 pencils are in my bag.. That includes two fountain pens and not even close to my favorite Dylan song. I think I have spared you of that until now. Girl of the North Country might top my list. 3rd and 4th verse. Hits hard.
That is a full and happy bag and worth every ounce of dragging it around the city. It's nice to have a choice in the arsenal and good to know that there are writing options as the needs comes up. I haven't given up my electronic friends though...also in my bag are two laser pointers, a stylus, laptop, iPad 2, wireless mouse, Garmin GPS and about 20 GB's of storage. If the Stationary Apocalypse ever comes, I will be prepared.
And as for the contest...I could be waaaay off, but I think your guesses might be low. If I can drag 19 pens around in my bag imagine how many I can shove into a shoe box? Still open through Friday so keep them coming. Possibly even a video reveal. Kinda like Oprah revealing her secret sister...only not as awkward.
So the lesson learned is: break out of that funk. Break the rules, go nuts. Change it up and fix things.
Good Pens.
A collection and some insight into the pens I use and love and a few of the dead ones as they pass their last drops of ink to paper from a pen junky.

What type of bag are you using to cary all that stuff in?
Timbuk2 Commute bag in Large. I bought it 5 years ago and use it everyday. Best bag I have ever owned.
You got a link? If there are other sizes, I may be interested in getting one. I need a good bag/case for my various pens/notebooks/computer/other crap in.
