Golf, fishing, Martini & Cabernet consuming (not at the same time),
Bowling is good too..especially when they turn out the lights and the disco ball comes on.

Housewifey things are not hobbies because they are not fun nor entertaining. Raising kids I think would fall into this catagory though...for the most part.

I've never done any fly fishing, I like just going out to a lake throwing out a line and relaxing, catch whatever bites.

i already can outshoot most folks.

i'm thinking that locksmithing would be a cool job for me, as i am pretty well tired of this office garbage. and it'd be a bit easier to setup shop in another town rather than having to do the resume/dress-up/interview BS.

as for the ex, i ain't doin NOTHIN to that SOB. and that's my story.
