    Other than swing?

    I LOVE the outdoor. I probably spend most of my weekends in the summer on a mountain or a lake.

    Actually, I shouldn't talk. I used to do the Shim-Sham and tap routines while waiting for the bus (muscle memory yo). I think people thought it was more like a pee dance than a cool swing dance.

    Along with other stuff. Except the things I make are cool. right

    But I don't scrapbook.

    Yeah, I bookbind a little. I'm not that good at it yet. My friends and I used to have bookbinding parties last year before I'd go to The Place. Wednesdays were the best then.

    I think it's actually a lethal combination of brutal kicks and strangulating smell.

    dang...

    My kicks aren't the only thing brutal. all of you are brutal!

    In my defense, I watch where I'm kicking. Even if I kick between your legs... I'm watching... most of the time.

    Yep, it's that 5% of the time that you don't watch when you kick between the legs that gets you that bad reputation. [Emoticon not found]

    Anyway...

    For fun I like to solve complex problems by typing in a text editor.

    I also enjoy scuba diving, although I have not been in several years.

    I also enjoy fly fishing, although I haven't gone in about 7 months now.

    book binding is awesome. Traci, I am envious. I found out that USU just started offering a book binding class this semester, now that I'm graduated. I'm bummed that they didn't do it sooner. [Emoticon not found]
