Lately my main hobby has been writing and directing a feature-length film with my roommate. "That's not a hobby!" you say. "That's a nightmare!" True. But it's been a lot of fun, especially since we decided to do it all on our own, so we have full control over how it gets done. Other hobbies: singing, playing flute and saxophone, dancing (especially in Ebony II), baking things without the proper ingredients, wandering around and observing.

Listening to music, reading, hanging out with friends, playing tag (seriously), playing the violin, watching movies, going on runs and dog walks, and having nice snacks.

I absolutely love sports and exercise, so I'm outside quite a bit. When it's warm out, I play a lot of Frisbee and football. In the winter, I really enjoy cross-country skiing. I am also a die-hard Twins fan, so I spend a lot of time watching their games in the spring. I am also interested in art, specifically ceramics, and I enjoy reading about new artists and viewing their work.

I enjoy almost anything puzzling or literary. By puzzles, I mean math puzzles, plastic brainteaser puzzles, puzzle-based computer games, newspaper puzzle columns, etc. By literature, I mean good books or poems or other writings of any genre. Anything that fits into both categories is fantastic. This means that I especially like wordplay puzzles and computer games which have text instead of graphics (interactive fiction). I also am a fan of The Office, Firefly, most baked goods, European-style board games, winter scarves, the webcomics Copper, Indexed, and xkcd, Les Miserables (the novel and the musical), M. C. Escher, and any useful device that can be created out of common office supplies. This is only a small sampling of my interests. If you do not see anything here that seems interesting to you, I'm sure that you and I have a common interest somewhere, but it's just not listed here.

Playing baseball, or any kind of sports. Going on runs, watching movies, reading Japanese literature.

Running, writing, murder mysteries, board games, movies, cards, conversing.

Last summer I learned how to keep bees; I'd like to get better at that. I also like to grow a vegetable garden each summer.

I enjoy folk dancing, hiking on the weekends and reading up on psychology, design and philosophy.
