Life of a Blogger - Non-Bookish Hobbies

Life of a Blogger is a weekly meme hosted by Jessi @ Novel Heartbeat. Each week Jessi chooses a topic (scheduled in advance) that’s not book related so we that we can get to know our fellow bloggers better – and to know more about them than just books. I’m thrilled to join in and I hope to participate every week from here on out. I hope you’ll join in too – check out the details here!


So I've been seeing some people participate in this blog hop and it looks fun.  Especially this week's topic.  Non-Bookish Hobbies.

I love to game sooo much!  I am sure some of you have seen my game reviews on here.  I play all systems.  I have not bought an Xbox One or a PS4 yet.  Honestly there really weren't any launch games that made me run out and spend the money.  I also play board games.  I play Dungeons and Dragons (though I haven't played in a while) and other games like Lords of Water Deep.



That's right.. BIRDS!  I love to go birding.  I am obsessed with it.  I usually try to google good places to go find them.  I did join the local Audubon Society but didn't really love it.  I really don't have the best zoom lense on my camera and all the birds we kept looking at were really far away.  I like it better when I am near water.  Those birds are so much easier to see!  Hopefully soon I'll get better lenses.  Utah is the most amazing place to see birds!


 I love football!  I love to go to all sports games (just went to an NHL game), and I love NASCAR (Jeff Gordon is my main man) but Football is my love.  I am a huge Denver Broncos fan.  I just tried to get tickets to the playoffs but those are impossible for the average person to get.  Once all the tickets are sold then it's a scam after that.  The price is outrageous and goes through the roof.  I refuse to pay those prices.  Bummer.  My family played Fantasy Football this year and that was a lot of fun too.  We had everyone on a texting party and talked smack to each other all season!


Ever wonder why you don't see more book reviews on here... or why I can't reach my goal of reading 100 books a year?  Yea this is why.  TV & Movies!  I love love TV.  You should see how much we have on my DVR.  Right now I am watching a TV show (Grimm) while typing this.  Movies... I always going opening night to the big ones... if it's showing in IMAX I am there, and I'll stand in line for hours. 


Well that is all for now.. I do have a ton more hobbies (going to broadway/ballet, museums, beauty, fishing, camping, outdoors, cats... blah blah).  What about you?  Be sure to link up your post so I can get to know you better.
