Yeah, me too. It's ridiculous how much time free I spend doing fish stuff. I woke up three hours early today to drive across town and back (50+ miles) just to pick up some shrimp. Then I was almost late for work because I was watching them, worried they'd get sick from the pH change. I need a less demanding hobby.

I really want to get SCUBA certified at some point. After going to the Galapagos this summer and snorkeling all over the place, I'd LOVE to go back and dive at some of these places. It would be incredible

Fish are definitely my biggest hobby, but a close second is music-mostly guitar. These are the ones I play:
G&L Legacy (Strat copy), Fender Telecaster Deluxe, Fender Squier Telecaster P-Bass, and Ovation Tangent MOB.

Besides that, I golf, I have kept and bred various reptiles (have 2 turtles at the moment), and I enjoy doing basically anything outside-hiking, camping, boating, etc.

My son.

Reading, mainly science fiction, though science biographies are becoming interesting.

Wargames, paper, board, computer, doesn't matter. I would gladly spend all day playing them.

Thanks, Teles are my favorite guitars. I wish I wasn't a broke college student because there are many others I'd like to get-Thinline semi-hollow, just a basic standard with single coils, Hot Rod, the real Fender bass version (has two of the monster bass humbuckers instead of the one on the Squier, and comes in this sweet green color). I think my next guitar purchase (probably will be a WHILE) will be a standard Tele. I LOVE mine, but it is basically a Fender Les Paul and I'd like to get something with more traditional Tele sound

Anything Aquatic. If fact, I think I need to go to Aquaholics Anonomous meetings. I love fishkeeping, swimming, boating, surfing, fishing, powertubing, and I want to get dive cert. Also, I love riding my motorcycle, and I try to play guitar. I'm not very good, yet.

My hobbies include in this order:
1. Fish Breeding- I can breed fish better that I can keep a pretty tank so i leave it at that. Right now I'm working on oddballs such as crayfish and gobies.
2. Aquatic Gardening- Basically a fancy name for plants in an aquarium
3 Competitive video gaming- Dont laugh. I was on a team about 3 months ago, that was fighting for 10 grand, and a spot on the MLG ladder. Naturally, my PS3 broke, and I was kicked off the team, but I've been trying since then to work my way back up.

And whoever said elder scrolls five, elder scrolls 5 hasnt come out yet. I assume you are talking about Elderscrolls IV=4, Oblivion. Good game, I have a level 50 theif, and a lvl 25 mage.
