Obviously, all of us are here because of a shared interest in at least one thing: Dreaming. But I'm curious as to what you all do otherwise? Work, school, play, other.
My favorite passtime is to play and listen to music. I am primarily a drummer, but I can play guitar, keyboard instruments, and various other instruments as well.
Though related, another favorite passtime of mine is my tutoring with my drum instructor. Lessons with him are really something else. I think we spend more time talking about ancient history, science, and philosophy more than we talk about music, but at the same time, everything can be tied back to music. He's a very intelligent and interesting man, though, and I enjoy speaking with him, about just about anything and everything, really.
Of course, there is one person with whom no one can compete with for my enjoyment, and that's my girlfriend Sativa. She's an airhead, but she truly is an intelligent woman. I plan on sharing my lucid dreaming training with her, though she stands a very good chance of surpassing me on that journey. She herself has no problem with dream recall--it comes completely naturally with her. Which, generally isn't a good thing in her case, however. She suffers from horrid nightmares. But we plan to fix that soon
I am also a big gamer. I'm a sucker for First Person Shooters, and I've been a fan since the amazing (at the time) Wolfenstein 3d. Over the years, DooM, Quake, and Half-Life have become an important part of my life. I've just met a friend who is actually sponsered at QuakeCon, and I hope to attend next year's conference with him, which should prove to be fun I also enjoy role playing games--my favorite of which being Fallout. Amazing game. I hope to create many of my dream adventures in this neat little universe. I would have so much fun wandering the wastes.
I have a geeky side, too--I am quite proficient with HTML, and recently I've delved into the wonderful world of PHP, which has proven to be fun... and aggravating. But it's all good Once I'm finished with my current PHP project, I'm looking into learning C++, and start a wonderful hobby in game modding. Particularly for Half-Life. I have a great idea to start an adventure game akin to the Tex Murphy series by Sierra, utilizing the Half-Life engine. It should be great fun
If it isn't terribly apparant by now, I also like to write. Writing is one of my biggest passions, and I hope to someday make a living of it. Shoudl be fun
How about you guys? What do you do besides dream?
