I have many interests(work included).
For starters, I love playing pool, swimming, out-doors type stuff like camping & hiking, although I don't generally seem get a lot of time to do any of these as often as I like or as much as I used to.
I like family outings, site-seeing, taking the kids to the park or to the beach (even though I haven't had the chance to do much of that lately, either).
I love watching movies when I have the time to and fooling around with crap online.
As far as non-playtime is concerned, I can lose myself in carpentry/handyman projects big time. I'm no stranger to hard work and I get a lot of satisfaction out of accomplishing a good days work.
I love yard work and I have a weak spot for landscaping. I like minor remodeling & handyman jobs projects. Currently, I'm working on a couple sheds out back and a work shop to work outta' (slowly but surely).
If ya' haven't guess yet, I'm kind of a jack-of-all trades, master of some, 'cause I do enjoy a variety of jobs that really occupy my imagination...things that interest me enough to let my mind get lost in.
I also like cooking, yard-sales, & Flea Markets!!!!!, and county/state fairs!!! Come to think of it, it's been ages since I've even been to a fair. =P
My non-interests, though, are house cleaning and laundry, but hell, once I get started cleaning, I seem to have difficulty stopping until I know I've finished the job. LOL. How sad is that????
But, yeah, laundry and house cleaning I consider to be a necessary evil that must be done for sanity's sake and because no one likes wearing a pair of undies two days in a row id they can help it. lol. Gawd, at least I hope no one does, lol.
Basically anything that suits the mood and can be sung along with on impulse or whenever the hell I fel like it, lol.
The following list is mostly compiled of action/adventure flicks (my favorites, of course), but I occasionally watch a few of romantic movies (they have to have a kick-ass ending though) and comedies (since I love to laugh my a$$ off):
Ghost Rider
Bourne Identity - Bourne Supremacy - Bourne Ultimatum
Fire Down Below
The Italian Job
Glimmer Man
Spiderman Trilogy
SHOOTER (most recent favorite)
X-MEN TRILOGY
PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN TRILOGY (CAN'T WAIT TO SEE #4)
WHILE YOU WERE SLEEPING
TOPGUN
THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW
BLADE TRILOGY
STARWARS (all 6)
DEVIL'S ADVOCATE
LORD OF THE RINGS TRILOGY
DANCES WITH WOLVES
WITNESS
SPARTICUS
How can I name them all???
Let's just say anything with a good plot and stirs the imagination is a winner.
If it was a hit in the box office, then I more than likely liked it and wouldn't mind seeing it again. ..
..
Dog: The Bounty Hunter
CSI (both)
Law & Order: Criminal Intent
24
Medium
Monk
Discovery Channel
COPS
Generally, I watch whatever catches my attention at the time I guess.
I've been hooked on John Bellaire mystery novels ever since elementary school, but in general, I've never really been one to just sit and read for entertainment purposes, but I do tend to read more for furthering knowledge or self help books, I guess.
My grandfather was by far the most powerful and the most loving influence in my life and my greatest friend of all time. I will miss him deeply. With his passing, so too has a piece of me gone with him.
