Oh, now that is too much. So, now not only are you a leprechaun, but you are addicting old folks to videogames? Have you no decency, sir?

Decency and leprechaun you said it all right there :lol:

I get so addicted to games that I thought Skyrim would have taken over me, so I let it sit. I've been playing Diablo 3 here and there.

I spent a lot of hours playing Kingdom Rush on iOS. 99 cents and easily spent 15 hours on it. Great little game.

I've put about 40 hours into the game so far and have only reached level 23...

I honestly felt like I needed to take a break from playing it.

Made 50 last night ... finished the main quest and who knows how much of the side quests. Still having fun but maybe tapered off a little bit? A couple quests are stuck for me ... I was hoping the recent 1.4 patch would resolve it but no dice.

I'll just stick to trying to find a sane woman under the age of 40, thank you. It seems like a task that will be less all consuming.

They ALL have a little crazy in them, it's determining how much crazy you can take :!:

Yeah, but the ones around here? The single ones are single for a reason. I can't find a single sane one that isn't taken.

I got pretty lucky, I had my friend introduce me to her. I'm over 1 year in and she seems normal with some minor quirks. Prior to that, I had to meet girls through other friends, friends of friends, coworker's friends.

My problem is I'm stuck in grad school, so everyone is pretty much stressed out or, sorry to say, the 5-6 years difference-I'm a little older than typical grad students-makes a world of difference.

School is the best place to meet them! If all your female classmates are taken, hang out with them and they'll figure out your a good guy. Chances are, she will know someone that is single and will introduce you to her friend.

Nope. Unfortunately, the women I know have this opinion that if a man has children, he's not worth getting to know. Sort of a "one strike and you are doomed to single hood". Whatever. I don't want a GIRL. I am looking for a WOMAN, and if she can't accept that I have kids...*SQUEE* her.

<-- 52 nearing 53 ... Levels are coming slow now that I have ripped through a lot of the easier ones for XP. (some of the smithing/enchanting skills, spell casting, etc.)

Still have lots of quests to complete to hit 100% on the achievements.

Watched some game trailers of SKYRIM and the game does look pretty cool. I don't play these games, so what does "levels" mean? Are there multiple levels in the game? Doesn't seem right since there are rooms, dungeons, etc.

Familiar with D&D, at all? It's a way of tracking/denoting the achievments and increased experience/power(s) of your character(s) within a game.
