Are you able to pick games back up?

I sometimes do, but most of the time I end up starting over. FFXII is an excellent example of this... I played about 5 different playthroughs of that game, mainly because I got stuck, quit playing, and then didn't want to jump in when I didn't remember any of the details and mechanics of the game.

Yep.

I have a tendency to play "whatever I feel like" at the moment. So that means I'm always "in progress" for several games. The really big open world games kinda depend on this mindset. If I play too much of any one game, I get bored of it and go on a several weeks hiatus, then come back and finish it when I feel like it.

Some particular examples:
Skyrim
Red Dead Redemption
Dragon Age: Origins
Assassin's Creed
