Okay, but seriously, I'm not sure they quite count as hobbies, but I love music (but am unmusical, so strictly as listener, not a musician), literature of all stripes (my favorite crime fiction writer is Henning Mankell), art (some favorites: Rothko, Modigliani, El Greco), fashion (well, the art of clothing and sartorial style, anyway.)
Basically I'm a humanities/aesthetics geek and people are often surprised when they find out how passionate about baseball I am. I don't fit too many sporty stereotypes.
I guess I'm more the Roger Angell type baseball fan.

Oh, and I'm a Coloradan, so I guess you could say hiking is also a hobby of mine. (Unfortunately, having been diagnosed with lung-involved sarcoidosis in the past year and half the hiking has been curtailed a bit.)
I really need to read more Mankell. I've read The Troubled Man and Sidetracked. Liked them both.
