I watch anime with the fiance. She picks the majority of them but occasionally I pick one as well. I also play video games but I haven't been as into it lately. Slowly going through Elder Scrolls Online with the fiance though.

As for solitary hobbies I like to make and listen to music. I usually don't care about the genre I just care about whether it sounds good. I mostly stick to digital production when it comes to creating music. I may eventually post some on hubski whenever I feel like I have something worth sharing. I play the acoustic guitar as well but that's more like therapy for me. I like that I can sit there and play some riff I've known for a while and let my mind wander while I loop through the patterns or when I'm frustrated I can smash the sound out of it with noise and force. I find solace in music.

I can absolutely relate to the music bit!

I've been waiting to restring my guitar for the last couple of days because I don't want to get it over with in 5 minutes. I want to sit down, remove the old strings, nut, and saddle, clean and polish the whole thing, and put on the new strings.

It's therapeutic, and when you're done you get that crisp, sustained sound. Yeah, you have to tune it every 2 minutes, but still... it's such lovely sound.
