poupon Member Posted October 19, 2009 06:53 PM Hide Post Doc - do you mind asking what you do in your spare time? ________________________________________________ I think this is a good question and deserves its own post.
Personally I read a lot, especially medical journals. I do what I can around the house and yard but I am not really able to do too much due to disabilities.
I enjoy going to my office as there is always something to do there including teaching the medical assistants and students who we precept.
So what do you all do in your spare time?

I chase my three kids around, cook and workout. I run 2-4 miles a day and weight train.

I second those sentiments. I rarely have any spare time at all anymore. But I have an extended vacation coming up and will going down to Disney again this year.

"Let's stop the hysterics about the freedom of Cubans – which is not our government's responsibility – and consider freedom of the American people, which is. The point being: it is Americans who live in a free country, and as free people we should choose whom to buy from or where to travel – not our government."

I always seem to have some project around the house. Also wakeboard and snow ski, boating, golf, and scuba a couple times a year. Easy to get outdoors in the Great Pacific Northwest. Smoke alot of cigars.
"How is it that you don't smoke ? A cigar is not just a pleasure, it is the crown and hallmark of pleasure. Ah, this is life ! - Leo Tolstoy, Anna Karenina
I like to read, especially Hemingway. The 721 in my name is a dedication to Hemingway, because 7/21 is his birthday.
I also enjoy drawing, as well as taking and developing my own photos.
I love listening to classic rock, especially the Bealtes, Led Zeppelin, and Jimi Hendrix, and occasionally enjoying the effects of the cannabis plant with old friends.
Watching a movie with a cigar is a nice way to relax and take my mind off of things, and I like to watch the following TV Shows: Lost, Heroes, Scrubs, That 70's Show, Dexter, True Blood, Weeds, Doctor Who, The Daily Show, and The Colbert Report.
Before I injured my back I also loved hiking, gardening, and body-boarding, and I look forward to being able to do these things again after my surgery at the end of this month.
Unfortunately, during the past two and a half years that I spent with my ex, my life was dedicated to her and my interests fell my the wayside, but now that she left me, one positive is that I have time for a lot of these things. again
