I have a lot of hobbies, anything to keep me
from getting brain rot =)

What I like best in the whole world is drawing. I have a compulsive need to doodle, sketch, paint, and otherwise illustrate. If only I could get paid a living wage to do that sort of stuff ...
Eating Is also one of my favorite activities. I especially like Italian food, but I'm also big on sushi, junk food, nuts, and anything with garlic. I've had garlic ice cream ^_^
I like taking photographs. I have a nice camera and I live in a good place for this kind of activity. I would like to take more road trips away from San Francisco to broaden my photographic horizons.
Music takes up a good portion of my day. I spend a lot of time listening to the stuff, and a lot of time playing to. I'm ok on the guitar now, I can play most melodies I hear note by note, and if you give me chords to play I can do that too ... I'm still leaning to pick songs apart chord by chord, and to write my own stuff. I've pretty much mastered my harmonica =)
When I have money I like to go out to clubs, either to listen to music or to hang out.
Writing is also one of my favorite things to do. I'm working on several projects right now. Most notably my San Francisco stories (which I'll post on the Web soon) and a book for kids I'm also illustrating.
I like reading, but I don't have as much time as I would like to do this. Once I retire (in about 80 years) I'm sure I'll catch up on all those books I promised myself I would read.
In general I like doing stuff. Here's a list of random stuff I've done in the past few weeks: coding, walking, talking, breathing, swimming, hiking, fighting, working, arguing, laughing, shopping, museum touring, investing, theater going, partying, and more I'm sure but you get the picture.
