Hobbies
I love reading. My favorite books are sci-fi, historical fiction, astrophysics and geophysics books written for non-specialists. I love gardening. I have turned my balcony into a huge potted garden, and often have cucumber vines climbing up the railing, sunflowers blooming, and whatever fruits and vegetables that happen to have caught my eye. I start them as seeds, enjoying the process even more so than the product. I LOVE singing. I'll sing just about anything that has words I can hear and repeat. I love musicals and soft rock and "Oldies" from when I was young. I especially love singing Hebrew liturgy, and assisting the Rabbi in leading the congregation. I love having soft music playing in the background. I love watching sci fi movies and TV, and fantasy, such as Harry Potter, Divergent, Hunger Games, Star Trek Enterprise, Orphan Black, Dark Angel, Buffy, Angel, The 100, The Crossing. I also like occasional non-sci fi movies and shows such as Ever After, Grey's Anatomy, Code Black, and 911. I used to live in a little house in the forest. I LOVE being in the woods. Can't stand the bugs or the heat. Otherwise that's my favorite place to be.
