I like cooking (currently on a big BBQ kick right now) and I try to do some creative writing occasionally (I'd like to do it more often than i manage right now though).

Edit: photography too, but that is very infrequent recently.

Does playing Magic The Gathering count

Photography and editing, pretty much daily. Mess around with music every now and then, but nothing persistent.

I like dressing up as Amy Schumer and driving around Aldi's parking lot screaming all the things you can't say on social media

Well, DJing of course... I like retro game development, but haven't done in a bit.
Also do the occasional grilling/cooking and drawing, though I'm not that great at either.
Photography is something I'm interested in getting into more, I usually just do it when I'm on trips and such, but don't have a lot of technical knowledge. Work was going to start offering free photography classes for their employees but that got cancelled...

I guess since writing is technically my job now, making web apps (and browser extensions (http://www.thebore.com/forum/index.php?topic=45694.0) ;)) is my non-work creative outlet.

Still polishing up this one:

phenomenal

People's creativity just blows my mind. This is so awesome.


I used to do a lot of community theater and I am on their board but right now we are closed and may or may not come back. I miss it a lot.

I used to write music but it's been years. I got into photography as well, but I am an amateur and I'm ok with that.

And y'all know I refurbish pinball games. Restoring an Elvira and the Party Monsters right now.

Sometimes I like to dress up as Bea Arthur and run around Safeways screaming look at my beaver
