    My dogs and going to new places or trying new things. Just moved to the east coast a little over a year ago so seeing things we didn’t have on west coast. Swamps, beaches, trails, historic buildings, etc.
    Fantastic adventure! I’ve almost always lived in the west coast. Except now being in OK.

    I visited the Okefenokee Swamp today and got to see alligators and black bears in the wild. It was incredibly beautiful. Seeing a 9 foot alligator guarding her nest of eggs with no barrier between you and her is definitely a thing to experience.

    Reading, travel. I don’t have much of an attention span lately though. I did manage a couple road trips this summer, despite the crappy budget. I like to watch Friends and documentaries.

    I love to sing. I take lessons and perform when I can. Plus do some exams and local competitions. In a couple of am dram groups as well.

    Reading and hiking! Oh yeah and smoking the green! Not that that's a hobby but still. Lol. :);)

    LA weather is the best. I garden too. I have raised beds and fruit trees.
    I do miss it! But now I have a big house and 4 dogs. I never had that in LA.

    Yeah it is so expensive here.
    It was worth it though.

    I think so. I could not live somewhere with bad weather.

    As someone who moved from SoCal to MN, it isn't that bad. Get used to it, and find things to do in the winter. My winter hobbies are shooting archery leagues indoors and downhill skiing. I do ice fishing occasionally as well.

    But I can't tolerate anything less than 70. I curl up in a ball and hibernate. Lol

    That's cuddling in the winter time comes into play. ;)

    Baroque architecture, racquetball and pigeon coops. I'm all over the place, man.


    Pigeon coops is an unusual one. Reminds me of an old movie called Batteries Not Included.

    That is one of my favorite movies of all time. 😍😍😍😍😍😍
    i know right!!?

    Omg it’s sooooo good! Now I’m gonna watch it on Netflix.

    I haven't seen that in a long time...

    I have a small farm I supplement my groceries with. It's just an overgrown hobby. :-)


    I seriously consider that for the dogs to run around on.

    My basset mix loves it. His heart is in hunting rabbits but keeps the hen house and barn free of rats.

    I'm starting to really like sining and I love drama. I am working on a few short films actually. Well, as the director.

    I love cooking and baking.
    I will bake a batch of cookies for no reason other than to decorate them.

    Photography, growing tiny plants, graphic and interior design, making stuff with a CNC router (that's more or less beginner-stage right now but I would love to expand it into furniture and decor-making), napping and zoning out with Netflix.

    Apparently Star Wars is quite the popular series:) I loved the first 3 when I was a kid and never could get back into it.

    I love to cook from scratch, preferably Italian food. I love hair (hence my user name.. I am not a psychopath). I’m really intrigued by true crime, I read about, watch docs about it.. it’s fascinating to me. Make up. Crafting (mostly painting things as well as canvas).

    Now you say you aren't a psychopath, but you say you love true crime...... I'm not sure I can believe you.

    INTRIGUED was the word I used, not LOVE. I think you may be the psychopath :D

    So you wouldn’t actually kill someone but be friends with a serial killer. Right? Or am I waaaaay off?

    Yeah so, I kill for fun.

    Oh your way off. I’d totally be friends with a serial killer. The mindset is fascinating!

    That is really cool! I’ve considered doing a podcast. Just not sure I could be consistent enough.

    Thanks! Neither was I when I started but if you have an idea, just get a few episodes recorded. Once you start seeing those listens pile up, the motivation to keep publishing comes with it.

    Baking, cake decorating, knitting, sewing, crochet, dogs, cats, children, cross stitch, craft of many kinds. Basically whatever catches my creative imagination or I feel I could do an equal or better job than what I see somewhere (challenge accepted).

    I completely understand....

    I like to get lost in my own house and chill out in the master closet. I don't count it as exercise cus I don't sweat and just sit on the floor.
