Hello everyone! We’re switching it up a bit with this week’s Top 10 Tuesday, hosted at That Artsy Reader Girl, with 10 Non-Bookish Hobbies. This post is really going to highlight my inner nerd.
- The Sims. I am a huge simmer. I have been playing since I was a kid with The Sims 1, and still avidly play The Sims 4. I also love watching SimsTube videos and live streams.
- Dance. Idk if this really counts as a hobby since it is technically a part of my profession, but since theatre is currently non-existent- thanks a lot Covid- I’m going to include it. I took a Zoom dance class the other day and it was the first time I’ve felt like my true self in a while.
- Yoga and Meditation. I’ve really gotten into yoga recently. I love the combination of the physical, mental, and spiritual elements. It has helped keep me sane this year.
- Cycling. It is one of the only forms of cardio I actively enjoy, and I look forward to riding.
- Dungeons and Dragons. This is where my inner nerd truly shines. D&D is so freaking fun and I love creating characters and going on adventures.
- Settlers of Catan. My family got SUPER into Catan over quarantine and it is now my favorite board game.
- Knitting. I learned to knit a while ago, but have recently gotten back into it and am learning how to make some more complicated things. I’m working on a Gryffindor scarf right now.
- Tarot. I’ve been learning to read Tarot cards for a bit now and it has given me so much insight and help- especially in this crazy uncertain time.
- Bullet Journaling. I have never thought of myself as artsy, but I’ve been flexing my artistic muscles with my bullet journals and it is so satisfying.
- Shopping. Usually at Target or Marshalls, but honestly just love some retail therapy. I’m generally pretty frugal, so when I do get to spend on something I love, it makes me giddy.

My partner is into D&D too! I’m not a people person but it looks fun.

I’ve seen D&D on tons of lists today! I didn’t realize it was still such a thing. Some friends of our family just introduced my 11yo to it recently and she is HOOKED. She spent HOURS playing with them a few days ago.
Happy TTT!

It is SO much fun! It can seem intimidating at first, but once you get going it is a BLAST. I’m pretty sure it had a resurgence when Stranger Things came out, but I could be wrong.
