The Story Idea Bug

It's like allergies; you think up numerous ideas and even jot some down to publish later. I, myself, have this problem and am now seven or eight stories deep, with around ten more in my documents and profile.

I prefer writing OCs; it's my Achilles' heel, and I love reading and writing them.

So essentially, what I'm asking here is: Do you all have the same problem? backed-up ideas that could litter Mount Everest but only be half-serious about a few of them?
