When you get home, what do you do to unwind immediately?

If I can't get over to my friends for gaming I generally start listening to music, lie down on my bed and flip open the Escapist.

How do you relax after going out and making money?

I switch my PC on and open a word.doc and see what my imagination can come up with on the spare of the moment (usually something I've also scribbled down at work).

But not before letting some crap burn in the oven/microwave...

Grab some food, a nice drink, and hang around the Escapist for a while.

Watching some videos naturally comes up when there's nothing special happening, not very exciting really.

I generally get home from work around 8pm. Though I'm allowed to eat dinner while I'm at work, I usually don't - so I grab something to eat when I get home.

After that, though... usually my husband and I will just play something Co-Op until time for bed. It was Diablo 3 that we were playing, up until a few weeks ago when we decided we needed a break from it. He's playing through Skyrim at the moment while I'm playing through Dead Rising 2 and Dead Rising 2: Off the Record since I picked 'em up for cheap during the Steam sale.

Kettle on, robe on, ass comfy, laptop.

Sometimes into the bath if it's been a particularly shitty day. Sans laptop though.

Well, generally, right after work, I'll go and hit a couple of buckets of balls on the driving range. Then, after biking home, I'll shower. Then, if I'm feeling tired, I'll take a nap after posting my review for the day. If I'm not tired, I might play a video game for an hour an a bit, or I might watch a movie, if I have time before the baseball game starts.

Food, beer, Netflix. Those are the normal things. I usually don't feel like going out after work. I'll stop by a friend's place and drink or chill, though.

And I give my pet alien LSD.

Sorry, I had to make this post less boring somehow.

Music. Almost as soon as I get in the door. This is for about half an hour (more for crap days), then dinner, Internet, bath, and bed.

Don't you relax a bit by crushing the souls of Escapist members as well?

Only their spirits. I leave the souls for the other moderators.

I don't get home from work until 10 in the evening so I don't tend to play games too much after coming home from work. I tend to just turn on the laptop and catch up on videos, news and the like while I wait for my dinner to cook.

Internet. I see what Facebook has been doing for the past 7 to 9 hours while sipping coffee and eventually pass the Hell out. I try making work the last thing I do during the day anyway so I can just pass out after.

Get some food, watch a few vids/read a few articles, then get my happy ass outside for my run. Then shower and sleep.

Food, shower, kill things in games. I'm currently working as a PCA, and some people are just... annoying to work for

Check facebook, watch about 15 minutes of let's plays, check out the few forums I go to and then do whatever tickles my fancy (often time a bit of writing or drawing). I happen to work night shifts so I usually get home too late to do anything else.

Oh yeah, and soft porn fits somewhere in there (if we're being honest). Judge away.

Speaking for myself from a few months ago, I would come in, plop right down on the couch and lie there for a bit, then change out of work clothes (stupid dress codes), then do some interneting for a bet, eat, and either play games or resume interneting.
