lostfan Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 Me: electronics (computers, home audio, etc. and really all this s*** these days can be linked together if you can spring the green for it), landscaping/gardening/lawn beautification, reading nonfiction, building music libraries, building digital TV show/movie libraries over my media player, video games. I think I'm going to be one of those people who takes a cruise every 1-2 years and reviews them online. Also starting to get into stocks and investing, just a little.

knightni Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 I don't have hobbies, per se. I do collect stuff sometimes. You name it, I have a small amount of it somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooftop Shots Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 Used to have an airbrush business, but got tired of the business end of it. Got to the point where I hated it painting anymore. After a 7 year break, I recently started doing it again for ministry work within our local church. (murals. paintings, etc)It became enjoyable again. No longer doing what I felt "Forced" to do because of customers demands, but now doing it for reasons that I "want" to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shipps Posted September 20, 2010 Share Posted September 20, 2010 Jeez...to be honest I tried to think of one but really couldn't. I will have to ask my old lady what she will allow my hobby to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThunderBolt Posted September 20, 2010 Share Posted September 20, 2010 I like to read threads about what other peoples interest are. It's a terribly limited hobby to try to follow up on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiSox_Sonix Posted September 20, 2010 Share Posted September 20, 2010 I collect ancient/medieval coins and antigues. My favorite pieces are a Queen Elizabeth coin, a viking dagger and an ancient egyptian amulet of Anubis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuskyCaucasian Posted September 20, 2010 Share Posted September 20, 2010 I have two daughters 2 years old and younger. I'm not allowed to have a hobby right now. If I DID have time for hobbies, it would be pretty much anything electronics/computers and video games. Unfortunately, my dad wasnt much of a "handy man", so I never really learned much about cars, house maintenance, or gardening/backyard care.

Milkman delivers Posted September 20, 2010 Share Posted September 20, 2010 I'd have to say my main hobby is doing crossword puzzles. Collecting music (and listening to it, obviously) is another big one. I download just about any song I've ever heard, even if I don't like it. I listen to music all the time...not sure how I could even live without music. I also enjoy doing smaller maintenance work around my house and my parents' house.

Soxy Posted September 20, 2010 Share Posted September 20, 2010 I quilt and read--right now I am working on re-reading all of Jane Austen and then I'll start the British Victorian authors. I will read just about anything though--I have a weak spot for historical non-fiction and the "tartan noir" genre. I also spend a lot of time hiking. I also love travel, but am usually too broke. This summer I am hoping to Wales, England and Scotland, though. . . Of course now that school has started back up all hobbies are pushed to the back burner.

BigEdWalsh Posted September 20, 2010 Share Posted September 20, 2010 I used to collect records (from the 50's-70's) but ended selling lots of them on eBay which was kinda cool because I had always wanted to own a record store and that was like having a record store. It was kind of neat knowing that my records were ending all over the world. Also used to collect sports cards now I just mostly have White Sox cards. I used to be pretty active playing basketball and softball but at 60 those days are gone. Having moved to Washington in July I spend a lot of time now roaming beaches on Puget Sound. Love to hike with my daughter and sometimes even the ex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
