    For starters: Art, architecture, and creative thinking.
    Also, Monarch Butterflies. I am fascinated that 1 migration cycle takes 4 generations to complete.
    How does that work?!?! Fascinating.
    My favorite thing in the whole wide world is to be impressed or inspired by something new to me.

    Too see children learning to walk from crawling stage they fall get bruised but never give up that phase in human life always fascinates me.

    True crime and serial killers - I was going to add ''not in a weird way'' but I think that makes me sound weirder than if I didn't write anything else at all so I'll just stop here :laugh:

    ohhhh I like that stuff too. I used to freak my ex husband out reading all my true crime books.

    I've probably read "Helter Skelter" about 10 times.

    Ancient weaponry and warfare. I want my own trebuchet.

    The way the pleats in kilts sway back and forth when men walk in them. Hypnotic.

    Chocolate fountains. Because... well... they're chocolate fountains.

    Weird things:
    Serial killers
    Heavy machinery/Factories/Power tools

    Normal things:
    Language

    Yeah, I think I'm a freak. I'm particularly mesmerized by machines and tools, I have this dream of living in an old renovated factory.

    ((Lol, at all the people out there saying "serial killers", "true crime", etc. My "sociology of the correctional environment" looks lame. But being a prison guard was my military job /MOS, and I did eventually specialize in dealing with the sexual and violent offenders of the facility's population... so I hope that helps make me a little less "weird" having real life experience.))

    I think what you have done is very fascinating as well. Probably a LOT more up close and personal than I'd like!
