Well heck, get on there! ;) Tumblr & Facebook are both good for it too. Wotcha play?

Haha I'm not promising to be on twitter any time soon - I am personally not a fan. I had to create one once for Uni to communicate with a teacher and I literally didn't use it once haha but that is just a personal preference. I have a love/hate relationship with tumblr where I'm either on it all day, every day OR I haven't updated for ages hahahah. I do find that is a good way to connect with people but not necessarily the easiest way to make friends on a closer level [same with FB as I don't tend to add people that I don't have friends in common with or know where they've come from].

Currently the husband and I are playing through an Adventure Time game on the 360. I don't have as much time to game as I used to but I'm waiting for my Fallout 4 pre-order to come out for PS4 and then I will probably be lost in the abyss for a few weeks for sure haha I tend to rotate through all my consoles and play something different on each every few weeks.
How about you?

I just hope that more people will ignore the fatalism of the argument that we are beyond repair. We are not beyond repair. We are never beyond repair. - AOC

Hey! You seem very social and outgoing! It is truly hard to make friends here.  My saving grace was this website called city socializer. It's basically people around the city that are looking to mingle. There's tons of married people, single people, people who've moved here, etc. I've meet 6 fabulous girlfriends on here that I hang out with weekly. There's big socials at pubs or restaurants,  etc. I went to my first one alone and was terrified but it turned out great. I've tried Meetup as well but found the age demographic was a lot older and we didn't have many common interests.

This is the second mention on here of this app! I had never heard of it before. I may need to try it out! :)

Well my butt belongs to Bioware thanks to the Mass Effect & Dragon Age games. Lately I've been playing a lot of Guildwars 2 with my brother & some UK friends. Fall Out 4 looks freaking great! I'm still catching up with the series.

I started the latest Dragon Age but didn't have time to get back into it. It's easier with our schedules at the moment to play games we can easily pick up and put down quickly and Dragon Age is not exactly that type of game hahah Bioware is great though! Been meaning to play the Mass Effect series as I, somehow, had never played before!
