Other than hitting F5 on CP what do you do to pass the time?
My music days are few and far between now and I've found myself clamoring for a hobby.
I started leather working and have had fun making out of the norm stuff that everyone does in belts and wallets.
Made some armor for the recent excuse to drink a lot from a horn and look at wenches.

In all seriousness I have a couple older Triumphs, and on my want list is a vintage Norton. I also have some older 70’s Japanese Motorcycles.

Probably my wife’s great Grandpas Ike Jacket. Served in the US Army, Pacific Theater.

That and the sand I brought back from Omaha and Utah beach this summer. I’ll never forget that trip.

Drinking beer.

I have a ton of quicklime at my house - just laying around. Why do I have it? No reason. Just in case of a rainy day - let me know if you need assistance.

Pretty much just riding my bikes now. Once I get this damn house out of my hair I'd like to get into brewing my own beer and building model cars again.

Here I am at Snowshoe, WV, riding in a new trail with the trail crew there:

That Snowshoe trail is wicked gnarly - your boy seems really good too.

Drinking from the skull of my enemies, and masturbating.

But not at the same time. That would just be sick.

Drawing is my favorite hobby because its the only hobby I have that nets me something every time I do it.

Lately I have been recreating ink drawings that were done by Frank Frazetta.

in my own artwork, I like to draw on a very small scale and then enlarge the drawing with a photo/scan. for example, this pic is about 220% of actual size. the largest figure in the drawing would almost fit on a quarter.

actual size

enlarged.

I claim woodworking though I haven't done it in years. Just bought a pyrography book at Woodcraft, but they didn't have any pens in stock.

I spent 7 years playing tenor sax and really miss it.

I like reading about guns and am trying to start a collection.

Hiking seems nice.

I started skateboarding out here. Haven’t skated since my early twenties (I turn 42 next month) but it didn’t take long for me to relearn how to push, balance and turn. I fell down a couple of times and got a few scratches but nothing major. I did pull my hamstring trying to push too hard. Not trying to ollie or take on any vert ramps, I just enjoy cruising on the bike paths and taking my board wherever I got. There’s a lot of smooth concrete here so there’s a lot of places to ride.

I bought a deck and setup for $100 at a local skate shop. A couple of weeks later I wanted to see if I could learn to ride one of those little 22” penny boards so I bought a knockoff at the local Chinese wal-mart for $12 and replaced the wheels and bearings for $30. The knockoff penny turned out to be a blast to ride once you figure it out. It’s fast as shit going down inclines. I feel like I’m too old to be doing this shit but most of the time when I feel like I’m losing control of the board, I just jump off.

I used to do a ton of writing, especially poetry about finding acceptance and love. Funny, once I actually started accepting myself instead of seeking acceptance from others, I noticed I didn't write as much. Now that I found love (and have a kid), my writing days are non-existent. I really don't have anything that I do just for me. I guess I need to find something.
