[...] and I had a long discussion this weekend about parenting, pregnancy, babies, the definition of fun, and work in which he got a true taste of what goes on inside my head when I’m sans anxiety [...]

Wait a minute. Man hobbies don’t produce anything? That seems a little too broad. What about eating? There are a lot of byproducts from eating. And sleeping on the couch all day? I think we can find something useful in that too.

I am the pathetic one. I greatly enjoy being ALONE and catching up on my TIVO. It is my sanity at night. I also do a girls night out not often enough and shopping, for my child more than me. I guess I am a bad person to ask, but I think once you have a child, alone time is a hobby and important regardless. Whatever makes you happy can be your hobby, whether you are actually making or doing something or being in a TV coma. When Andrew was a baby and I was sleep deprived, going for my 6 week check-up at the OB/GYN was like heaven to me, I was alone and not pumping.

Go geocaching! Either that or letterboxing (letterboxing.org) the untechnological, and older version. You can go by yourself, with Alex or as a family. You can choose which caches to find to fit your mood: easy to hard to virtual. And now, during the winter, the bugs should be at a minimum.

I also like getting together with my female friends, although here that’s few and far between. Become a food or movie critic with them.

It’s not fair to compare guys’ means of having fun with girls’. Their brains are different and they have fun differently. And it depends on the guy as to whether he’s thinking about what needs to be done later. Du would be one of the ones worried about what he “really” should be doing.

Also, don’t worry if you start something only to tire of it later. I do that a lot. I do try to come back to it though sometime in the future. One of my hobbies one time was genealogy. I stopped though when Reagan was born and haven’t touched it since. I know I’ll get back into it though. Knitting has gone the same way only because I have to think and count stitches, which cannot be done with anyone else in the room.
