Top of my list would be shopping since it is the one I get to do the most often. http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif
Others include:

Driving
Seeing good movies
Eating good food
Sharing good company
Writing~true short stories that will be compiled into one bone-chilling book eventually.
Drawing/sketching/painting (although I have to be sleep deprived to be good at it)
Leather, Suede & Beaded Crafts
Home Improvement of any type
Gardening
Spending time with my pets
Watching (and appreciating) sunsets, sunrises, (moonsets & moonrises during harvest months are cool too)
Sleeping
Listening to good music while I drive or work on projects out in the garage

The not so often done but much loved things I like to do are:
Hiking~ANYWHERE desolate...forests, deserts, mountains, valleys, you name it...if no one is there, I want to be! http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif
Mountain climbing~nothing too steep as I don't use safety equipment http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif
"Hitting the Beach"
Bicycling
Mountain Biking
Motorcycle Riding
Crocheting big pictures or table covers with thin string~something I have not done in years but am thinking of picking up again here soon.

I like to play the guitar (classical mostly)
I write, stories most of the time...
I also play Basketball on saturday and monday.
Other than that, I sometimes get the urge to draw something, although unfortunately I seem to suck at it most of the time (and that is an accurate observation).

Oh yeah, and I love to read a good book, preferably some kind of fantasy novel.

Hiking in the mountains, any mountains ...
Reading everything I can get my paws on

Reading
Writing stories, but I never finish anything. I just write enough to keep the stories from taking up all the space in my brain.
Photography, mainly to keep my husband company. He's much better at it.
Watching hockey. http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif
Playing with beads, mostly making jewelry (I probably have the world's largest earring collection). Lately I've been making beaded Christmas ornaments.
And playing CRPGs, of course.

Good fun though, even if I didn't realise that I had an opinion on heaps of things until just the other night.

I have noticed that a few people have similar interests... Some are for obvious reasons, such as people reading, or playing games... that is why a lot of people are here, to discuss that sort of thing, but there are other things, like a lot of people are talented writers, and I also noticed that a lot of people also play an instument (guitar! http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif).
Just a few thoughts... nothing serious

OK... *sheepish grin* This is stolen, but It describes my activities off the board so well

ahem....

I am a dynamic figure, often seen scaling walls and crushing ice. I have been known to remodel train stations on my lunch breaks, making them more efficient in the area of heat retention. I translate ethnic slurs for Cuban refugees, I write award winning operas, I manage time efficiently.

Occasionally, I tread water for three days in a row.

I woo women with my sensuous and godlike trombone playing, I can pilot bicycles up severe inclines with unflagging speed, and I cook Thirty-Minute Brownies in twenty minutes. I am an expert in stucco, a veteran in love, and an outlaw in Peru.

Using only a hoe and a large glass of water, I once single-handedly defended a small village in the Amazon Basin from a horde of ferocious army ants. I play bluegrass cello, I was scouted by the Mets, I am the subject of numerous documentaries. When I'm bored, I build large suspension bridges in my yard. I enjoy urban hang gliding. On Wednesdays, after school, I repair electrical appliances free of charge.

I am an abstract artist, a concrete analyst, and a ruthless bookie. Critics worldwide swoon over my original line of corduroy evening wear. I don't prespire. I am a private citizen, yet I receive fan mail. I have been caller number nine and have won the weekend passes. Last summer I toured New Jersey with a traveling centrifugal force demonstration. I bat 400.

My deft floral arrangements have earned me fame in international botany circles. Children trust me.

I can hurl tennis rackets at small moving objects with deadly accuracy. I once read Paradise Lost, Moby Dick, and David Copperfield in one day and still had time to refurbish an entire dining room that evening. I know the exact location of every food item in the supermarket. I have performed several covert operations with the CIA. I sleep once a week; when I do sleep, I sleep in a chair. While on vacation in Canada, I successfully negotiated with a group of terrorists who had seized a small bakery. The laws of physics do not apply to me.

I balance, I weave, I dodge, I frolic, and all my bills are paid. On weekends, to let off steam, I participate in full-contact origami. Years ago I discovered the meaning of life but forgot to write it down. I have made extraordinary four course meals using only a mouli and a toaster oven.

I breed prizewinning clams. I have won bullfights in San Juan, cliff-diving competitions in Sri Lanka, and spelling bees at the Kremlin.

I have played Hamlet, I have performed open-heart surgery, and I have spoken with Elvis.
