OMG Steam Summer Sale!

The Steam Summer Sale has thoroughly disrupted my life.  One moment, I was sitting at my computer, contentedly working my way through Dragon Age: Origins and a second play-through of Mass Effect 3, and suddenly I have almost a dozen new games to play and not nearly enough time to play them all. And it's only day 4 of the sale...

To be fair, I knew it was coming: Bishop (my husband) has been talking about the Sale for about a month now, but a) we thought it was in August, and b) I've never been through it as a gamer before, being only about 6 months into my gaming career. I'm the type that, when I get interested in something, I throw myself in wholeheartedly; I played through my first video game, Mass Effect, in roughly 3-4 days. Since then, I've been slowly accumulating a Wishlist of games I want to try, never guessing that I'd had the opportunity in only a few short months.

So now the choice comes: Do I start with Skyrim, once Dragon Age: Origins is done? Or confront the darkness that is the Bioshock trilogy? Should I continue my fantasy binge with Fable: The Lost Chapters? Or plunge into the existential mess of Borderlands 2?

I have so many new options, and all I really want to do is go hang out with Alistair and Wynne.  For now, I suppose I stay the course -- for a few more days, at least.

**update**
and now a Hitman collection went on sale, Nooooo.....
