- chocolate:
Mmmmmm, chhhhocollllate. In the last few years, chocolate has become my favorite candy; almost the only candy I care about at all. My favorite isn't even really chocolate though, it's Lindor White Chocolate Truffles. Best. candy. ever. - dogs:
I've had dogs as long as I can remember. Not too long after marrying Allie, we got Spanky, a mixed (part chow, part golden retriever we think) breed that lived with us for 16 years. I miss him. Now we have two golden retrievers named Jake and Buddy. I love dogs! Cats? Ummm, no! - friends:
Duh. Who isn't interested in friends? I don't have enough friends. Maybe I'm anti-social, but I prefer to believe it is because I have a busy family life and don't get out much. Also, I'm a guy that isn't sports oriented and I don't drink. These factors greatly reduce my friend pool by default. I'm okay with that. - journaling:
It started on a whim, because my sister was into it, and it was intriguing. I'm a boring journaler as far as most people would be concerned, but I'm not doing this for them, or you. I just want you to read it! ;-) And comment! But if you don't, I'm going to keep it up because I don't like paper journaling, but I want to keep a record of my life and what's happening; if not from day-to-day, at least over the years. - livejournal:
Again, got it from my sister. She gave me a code, back when a code was required to start an LJ. I soon upgraded to a paid account, and when they offered permanent accounts for 24 hours awhile back, I beg/borrowed/stole to get one. I plan to be here from now on, however long that is, so it was economical in the long term for me to do that. - mp3s:
What can I say about this that you don't already know? What did we do without mp3s? I own quite a few CDs, but I like a lot more music that I wouldn't buy the whole CD to get. That's where the Internet and mp3s have helped me out. I have about 3K tunes on my hard drive that I've either stripped from my CDs or acquired from iTunes or somewhere else (wink, wink). Love the tunes. Love mp3s. - pens:
All my life I've always been particular about the kind of pencils and pens I use. Nothing fancy, mind you. I'm not a fountain pen freak or anything. I like 'em cheap but functional, and they have to have the right feel when I write on paper with them. Currently, I use the Pilot G-2 gel ink pens with an extra fine point for the most part. The ink is much darker (black) than regular (non-gel) ink. Oh, and I love the new Sharpie retractables for more permanent needs. - sculpture:
I like sculpture. Not the kind art critics praise, but the kind I like. That is, whatever I see that appeals to me. It is an interest of mine because I think I would also enjoy doing sculpture. That kind of hands on creation appeals to me. I will eventually try it. - tools:
Okay, this is what I like instead of sports. I like woodworking tools (which I have a fair selection of), metal-working tools (which I don't have very many of... yet), hand tools, power tools... I just love tools. I would have been a very innovative cave man, I think. - writing:
I enjoy good writing. Again, not what the critics say is good, but what appeals to me when I read it. I also like to write and occasionally I think I do it well. Sometimes when I read something I wrote, often years before, I am surprised that I wrote it. I think, "Wow, I'm surprised I can write that well!" You aren't likely to agree, especially since most of what you read here from me is fairly mundane. See the first two sentences, where I state I like reading what appeals to me. No apologies. Ultimately, I would like to find a writing niche and an audience. It's a dream.
