Found myself starting to think about trying some new thing that sounded cool, and realized it might be fun to think about all of the random interests, crafts, hobbies and pursuits I've chased on tangents to my life. It's easy to feel like a bum or a failure for dropping hobbies and that could cause hesitation in starting something new, but on sheer volume I bet some of us have impressive lists. Requirement is that it never made you real dependable income and wasn't a career for you. Aside from that, sky is wide open. It can be something you tried for a few weeks, years, or still do. What's your trail of hobbies?

There's a local roller derby group that's like a half hour away. I've only been roller skating a few times but it seems like a lot of fun! When I get more time I'd love to try it.

It's great fun! I stopped playing when covid hit, and that was enough to take away my focus. The idea of going back and training twice a week, with games on top of that was appealing when I was in the zone, but now, it just seems like a lot of effort :P
