ysobelNote to self:
Trying an app does not commit you to continuing with that app.
Really. Even if the app gives bonuses for daily activity.
The world will not end if you stop doing the crossword apps (you know, the ones that you find at best mildly annoying and at worst frustrating). Nor do you have less moral value for "giving up". And while crosswords are supposedly good for your brain, so are other things; it's less that crosswords are magic bullets, and more that using your brain is good. So is sleeping, and reading, and other things you could be doing with the extra time.
If you don't find a game actually *fun*, it's okay to stop doing it. I promise.
With love,
Me

Take that, you formless time-vampire!
