All I can say is: how can you have a copy of FTL: Faster Than Light that you've never played. That game's awesome. I have a Steam backlog, too, but it's nowhere near as long as yours. I have a book "waiting list": I wouldn't call it a backlog, because the rate at which books are added to it fluctuates and books rarely "jump the queue", so there's nothing on there that I'll never get to: it's just a matter of time. When I'm under pressure and doing too much, I get a backlog of emails, especially in my personal account. I try to process to Inbox Zero, but I can only manage it on a good day. On a bad day, it's far too easy to slip into the habit of using by inbox as a to-do list, which in turn only generates more stress - I've got to get better at that. I've got a slight backlog of board games: I think I've only got two board games (and, separately, two expansions) that I own but have never played, but I'd probably have more if my partner hadn't had me agree to a moratorium on more board games purchases until we'd at least played everything that I already owned. Oh, and I've got a little backlog on paperwork relating to my dad's estate: it's taken far too long (he died almost a year ago) to get things underway, owing to some legal complications, but now that we're finally moving I've got a heap of paperwork I need to do that I simply haven't found time for. I've learned a lot about being an executor this last year, and my god there's a lot of stuff that you (potentially) have to do!
|All I can say is: how can you have a copy of FTL: Faster Than Light that you've never played. That game's awesome. I've had people express shock that I'm not playing Dark Souls and Mirror's Edge as well. No shock at any of the books I'm not reading though. I'm working through Dead Space here and there, and have swiftly learned the first rule of that game: Shoot corpses.
