When you're not focusing on health or busy working, what do you like to do?

I love books. Any kind of book. I'm a book *kitten*.
I also like geocaching, something that makes most people say "WTF is that?"
After geocaching, I grab another book.
Cooking, via a grill or smoker makes me very happy. Especially when I have to buy a book on different techniques.

That's all I've got. What's your happy thing?

    I'm also a surfer. Surfing makes me so happy, especially because it's something that I do often with my boyfriend. :D

    I can't believe I forgot to photography in there! I have much love for my Nikon D70s, it's been good to me over the years. I'm hoping to trade it in for a D7000 in the future.

    I would really like a nikon D700-800 or the D3X (if only I had a few Grand...lol)

    I read a lot, I'm currently reading too much as I'm averaging a novel a day and it's expensive. Sigh. Stupid speed reading that I can't control.

    I like to knit from 1930s patterns and I collect and wear almost exclusively 30s clothes. I love watching old movies (currently working my way through all I can find of Chaplin). I'm also really into cooking and this summer I plan to teach myself Chinese cookery.

    I get a lot of my books from paperbackswap.com. It's free to request books, the only cost is shipping if someone requests one of your books (about $2.50 media mail).

    i have a pet rooster i play with a lot... i take him on walks and go bug hunting with him. stimpy... he's super cute. i should get a picture of him on here.... anyways... if you need a good hobby, chickens are extreeeeeemely cheap cheap pets and they're soo funny, plus if you get a hen, you aaaalways have real organic eggs.... they are really really dumb, but they have such unique and large personalities that it's easy to overlook theyre mental shortcomings... my stimpy is like a sassy little spoiled thing... he's like a 2 year old covered in feathers.
