Oh I play various games, but that is modulo my chronic pain.  Some days
my back hurts to much to sit at the computer and play or go out and I
end up watching a movie or series on the dvd player.

Currently doing dailies in Star Trek Online and sporadically playing
Tina Tina's Wonderlands and Torchlight 3.

Still not really back up to snuff after the hospital stay.
