Music, Movies, and Books
I love reading when I can find time the time to!!!! Philosophy, economics, and current affairs.
I really only read non fiction. I don't know why anymore. I love philosophy - a nice debate really makes my day.
I love historical documentaries. Books. I read about five books at a time and it doesn't help my ADHD.
Eclectic musical interests - newly included Italian artists. Italian new wave is amazing.
