Is it ok to use an OS X server as your primary workstation? Will it run normal OS X apps fine along with its normal chores, or is it not a good idea... I know its not the BEST idea, but will it work fine?

Works great, but costs more if you have to buy the OS up front.
If you already have both, it doesn't really matter; Server is marginally better IMO due to some better-supported features like journaling.
