Part of the reason this is structured and has a goal is because I wouldn't be able to get off my duff and do it, otherwise. Executive dysfunction is a beast, especially with close to four years of inertia behind it. (That's how long it's been since I've written anything that wasn't desperately begging for financial help on this journal, honestly.)

Of course, that also ties into my criteria - being disabled, I have a little more free time than the average adult my age. It's why I haven't gone mad yet. I want to make use of that time in a way that isn't panicking about the household, so...

And yeah, I'll grant that about SBCGAP. Thinking about it, their plot coupons always did come in threes, which incidentally wasn't as obvious a problem in the Sam and Max games. The only reason I had all five is because all five came together; you can't buy them individually on Steam, and together they form a squishy mass. were on sale one Steamsmas. If it helps, they did progressively get better about not making it an explicit, numbered checklist the way Homestar Ruiner did, though... even if all of the games were very specific about Clearing These Three Goals To Progress Past This Plot Issue.

EDIT: Finally, this isn't a contest, hon. It's like they say; time you enjoy wasting isn't wasted time at all. As long as you're getting something out of continuing to write, by all means, keep writing.
