Well... I've seen that kind of arrangement more or less work out, once or twice. Can be pretty rough, but it can also be doable. Do have to be pretty clear and consistent about lines and whatnot.

Maybe make sure certain physical things are setup right, if possible. Ways either of you can get in/out of the house without disturbing the other, places allocated for friends/etc. to come where there won't be reason for conflict over it, stuff like that. Basically ways to facilitate being housemates instead of in a relationship, methods to be able to live concurrent lives without needing much input from the other actor(s) involved.

Somewhat ideally there's some kind of third party that can arbitrate if it really comes down to it -- landlords and such can occasionally roughly resemble that -- but it often just kinda' isn't. It'll be tough, particularly starting out, but if y'can hammer out and make routine the right things it can be at least not terribly unhealthy for the folks involved.

Went to play Unreal Tournament for once and the install seems to have made the mouselook be screwy so I can't aim at all or really move my aim really. (Not sure how to explain it? Basically doesn't move through the mouse, looks straight forward only etc) Asked for help in a server and the community seems to have turned to shit 'cause as soon as I asked some guy voted to kick me off the server, lol, wat? Used to be a lot better. Still haven't figured out how to make it work!

The folks there were total arseholes though, it was lame. I'd be fine playing against bots but I still can't fix this thingo. :l

I finished Metal Gear Solid as a series.

Don't be sad, now you can properly launch in to endless theoretical and philosophical discussion about Metal Gear!

Honestly, I could write a full-sized commentary and critique on MGS2 alone.

I'm just... So, so tired. I think that's the issue. I am very tired.

MGS is a series about cycles, snakes, guns, patriots, and a pinch of sneaking. It was a wild ride.

Burnt the milk to a crisp.

I mean, he does live in India, it was probably the ambient heat. ;P

(likely he was heating it for the child or to make something that uses a milk base instead of water)

It was fresh, unpasteurized milk. Gotta boil it for a bit to kill off any bacteria in there. Also changes the consistency of it by clotting all the cream out of it.

Though even pasteurized store bought milk tends to get the same treatment out of habit. (and because it makes sure it's still fresh enough. If it's not fresh, it'll curdle when you boil it)

You can burn dairy-based-sauces and soups. It's terrible.

... also occasionally wonderful. I'm pretty sure it's terrible for you, but some of those get real good when you lightly singe bits of it.

I am interested. Do tell.

Even for a Monday, this day was garbage. I'd say "the week can only improve from here!", but experience tells me that's a faint hope at best and a jinx at worst.

At least there's a Friday to go with it.

You know, usually.

Did you just imply the apocalypse, or the complete restructuring of our measurements of time within this week?
