The "What Are You Doing This Moment" Thread

When is playing with your kids anything less than, say, 6/10?

When you're deaf and blind and instead of seeing their happy faces and hearing their laughs you're enshrined in a veil of darkness and constant noise from hell and you're unsure if they are really your kids or if it's just your care-taker's trick to try to make you happy for one second. I'd rate that one somewhere around 4/10.
 
So my old friend that was living for the past year in Niagara Falls moved back to the area. I haven't seen her in about a year so yeah. I was staying at my parents for the night anyways since me and the (then and now-ex) girlfriend were fighting, so I invited her to stay for the night.

Well... suffice it to say, feelings came rushing back. I wanted to kiss her the whole time (and I know she would've been game), but didn't, because I'm still in love with the ex-gf, and I don't know where it's going.

I don't want to lead my friend on if it turns out I end up going back to my ex-gf. But damn, I wanted to kiss her really bad. Lol.
 
Formulating another themed mixtape game. I doubt I'll actually post it since we have 3 already but wanted some feedback.

Each poster makes their own mixtape (of let's say 5 songs), and submits them. Each rater then chooses 3 mixtapes to rate, based on how well they fit the theme, not just how well they like the music. The top 3 rated mixtapes are then merged into one mixtape, which is the winning playlist for the round.

Benefit of this method is that (a) we get to choose more than 1 song, and therefore describe the theme better, and (b) we can allow as many participants as we want, because it's not required to rate everything. Just rate 3 mixtapes of your choice.
 
I would give out the user mixtapes randomly. People would get butt hurt if no one rated their playlist -- plus, it could skew the ratings.
 
Yeah, that would have to be done in a way that makes sure that each mixtape gets the same number of ratings from people who randomly receive them.
 
Am I the only one who finds this post (even within context) to sound somewhat creepy?

Good of you to let us know what's really on your mind.

Fucking LOL.
 
Played the Spartacus tabletop game over the weekend... And started watching Spartacus. Both are pretty fucking awesome. The game is a good mix of money grab and character building.

Since getting the word of grad school acceptance, a refresh of the apt has been in the works. Got it rolling this week. Kid's room first, finished that today. Hoping to have our bedroom done in the next month or so. Then will turn attention to the kitchen.

Grats on getting in. I miss being a student.
