    Reading, watching something now and then, and dealing with medical issues that flair up. Not much else to do around where I'm at honestly.

    I work 40 hours a week and game 2 hours a day. When I'm not doing that; I'm at the bar drinking, hanging with friends, working out, hiking, camping, hunting, fishing, building websites, posting on my personal blog, selling shit on ebay, metal detecting, kayaking, swimming, cooking, BBQin, partying, or doing whatever I'm into at the time :)

    When I do have some time left over which is pretty rare, I like to try to go out and have some fun with friends. These days though it is mostly limited to work friends, and after a while going out gets pretty boring and old and it kind of seems to run its course. I do like relaxing with some tea and a movie or some television though too.

    Hmmmmm, when I'm not gaming, probably watching tv, reading, or doing crafty stuff.

    Currently reading The Lunar Chronicles.....Winter since that came out in November and totally forgot about it till I recently went to the bookstore and saw it.

    Waiting for all the shows that are on Winter Break to come back but I didn't find new shows like The Shannara Chronicles and The Magicians and I'm so excited Legends of Tomorrow comes out soon!

    I like to read, spend time with my kids, watch videos online and do research. I sometimes like to watch movies as well.

    I read a lot! Or just waste time on the internet, to be honest. I study a lot, and am out the house most of the day, so I don't have that much free time to begin with.

    Well, I love running. It's my exercise and at the same time hobby. I run when I'm stressed or have problems. It keeps me fit and keeps me sane as well, lol.

    Then, I also love writing in my blog. It is my outlet and helps me be creative. I find that writing is one of the few things that can calm my nerves as well.

    I like gardening, woodworking and electronics. I also play guitar. And that's how I spend most of my time when I'm not gaming or taking care of adult life.

    Well other than everyday necessities, I either workout, reddit, skype with friends/ co-op games with skype to chat and chill, or just listen to music and unwind. I also work so there isn't much time!

    Working, watching YouTube videos, scrolling social media, and reading. Sometimes if the mood strikes me, I'll try making something, but I've been too tired lately.

    I like playing and learning musical instruments because I've always been musically inclined. These days I play way less though because there's too much other stuff I can distract myself with. Sometimes I want to be more productive but I just end up watching youtube videos but I guess that's okay as long as I'm having fun.

    I usually chat with friends online, listen to music or just sleep.

    During my free time I also do some reading or painting. I love books. And sometimes if the inspiration hit me, I paint. I don abstract and realistic paintings.

    I usually go for a cup of coffee and just relax for a while after a couple of hours playing. Actually free time for me is playing so besides playing relaxing is the second choice.
