I love baking. I love trying out different flavour combinations - I donate my cakes to charity when there are bake sales and the like.

I play video games (especially Role-Playing Games), watch Star Trek, browse the internet, do many different scientific things(blowing stuff up, experimenting, learning, hanging out in the science lab ect), and many many other nerdy things!

Theatre productions, art galleries, book launches, community events, writing, international travel, fine dining, yachting, heart surgery, counting my millions.....no, wait! That's not me! That's what I wish I was doing every day but instead I'm doing office work and house work.....although I do have one hobby on that list!

:D :D Very funny Maud. I thought you were serious and then I saw heart surgery, and I thought "WHAT THE", heart surgery as a hobby, where does Maud do this surgery and more importantly WHO is letting her perform this surgery on them. hahaha

I plunk on my banjo and sing, listen to music, try out the different taco stands, go to the beach and get clams, I make a killer clam chowder. When my brother-in-law is in town, Ill walk to his place in the mornings and swap lies and see what kind of weird kinky stuff he gets from the internet. @ Maud, you have some interesting hobbies,except the heart surgery, I dont like the sight of blood. Do you practice on friends and relatives, or just some poor sap that happens by? :lol: :lol:

I enjoy watching movie and baseball. I like being outside and taking walks and playing outside sports. I enjoy taking naps and playing board games. Oddly enough I like to clean, I like when things are neat and tidy and organized.

I just can't sit still for two seconds. My office looks like ten schizophrenics took over, most of the time. And I multitask...play guit while I'm waiting for a file to come in, knit while I'm watching a movie, do vocal exercises while I clean, write while I listen to music...torment the Rooster (my significant n'other) all the time.
