Starting something you couldn't finish
Finnbar says: I used to know a guy who tattooed LOVE across his left knuckles, but didn't tattoo HATE on the other knuckles because he was right-handed and realised he couldn't finish. Ever run out of skills or inspiration halfway through a job?

I started 'Ulysses' too...
...in 1985! That copy eventually fell apart some time in the 1990s. About five or six years ago, I found a good copy in a charity shop and carried on from where I'd got up to.
Read it for a couple of weeks at the rate of about half a page per night before giving up again.
One day...one day.

I read it out of a strange sense of obligation.
I can't think why. I keep meaning to re-read it to find out.
