other hobbies besides gaming

[Gaiseric]

Hiking(my car sucks so I can't go far)
Shooting(I don't have the money to go)
Reading(I have no new books)

...Basically with my hobbies I'm limited to a place about 10-15 minutes away to hike, taking my guns apart, and rereading everything. I hope my new job venture pans out so I can do these things again.

edit: How the hell did I forget exercising? At least that's something I can do that doesn't cost anything but time and pain

 

[Brutal Peanut]

1.) I read quite a bit. I like to do so on my back patio on a nice day with my dogs. Enjoy the garden.
2.) I write short stories to amuse myself. (None of which are finished.lol)
3.) I draw and paint, even though I am not very good at it. But as they say, practice makes perfect. Or as far as I'm concerned, a bit less blobby.
4.) I have a veggie garden that I grow every year.
5.) Go on day-trips to museums and galleries. Depending on the time of year, swimming at the lake, walks on the beach, or some hiking maybe. Usually accompanied by my Husband.
6.) I also collect Geek stuff, that appeals to my gaming interests. Plushies, statuettes, figurines, posters, etc.

I like simple and relaxing activities. ^_^

[AnAngryMoose]

I am confused and frightened by this concept....

I think we all are. Hang in there, we'll be through this dilemma soon!

Besides gaming I generally just hang out with a couple friends (IRL), piss about on the internet, cook and play the banjo. Mostly gaming though, but the OP has apparently outlawed that for this thread...
