So my friends sent me this. You're supposed to say something funny like "I strap dead trees to my feet while being dragged all over a lake by a speedboat" if you like to water ski.
I thought and thought about it and I don't think I have any hobbies. I've only had five days off of my current job since mid August, including 20+days where I had to work double duty. I'm helping my wife build her company (that is exploding exponentially) and I love it. It will hopefully be able to take care of my family in the future without us both working our bodies and minds to the point of exhaustion.
I'm too busy for a hobby, but maybe later I'll have time.
In the meantime, it's to you. Badly describe your hobby if you have any.

Very good Zen / exercise.
And occasionally I find something special with yellow and maybe some ice. Pink was my favorite blast from the past this week & a personal best at over 4 rabbit favorites. Seriously.

LeftInTX
(25,343 posts)There is a guy we call Lurch who is scary and dangerous. The place if full of swindlers. One guy speaks pidgin and he runs things. No one understands him but his followers. Everyone is cheating and shouting...shut up and order...people sometimes use phrases like, "Point of order". One big fat guy gets in everyone's face. One lady slaps another in the face. Homeless people create fake addresses...they then use these fake addresses for personal gain...After the meeting, my friends and I chat...we try to make the next meeting sane...it never happens...
