What are your hobbies?

I lift weights at the gym, I kitesurf on the weekends, and I play the guitar.

reading, TV, and computer games

I don't really consider these hobbies because it's not really a skill. It's just sort of passive entertainment.

I play piano, guitar, and lift weights 4-5 times a week.

Find a couple really fascinating subjects and learn the shit out of them in a non-academic way. Seek out the most interesting personalities in those fields, their passion is contagious and will spark an interest in you.

For myself- economics, philosophy, life extension and just now getting into photography.

I'd say exercise...but c'mon. Though, bodyweight fitness is certainly more entertaining than lifting weights, as I build muscle and do all kinds of cool tricks(handstands, one-armed pull ups, planches, levers). Basketball and hiking are my cardio.
Archery - it's meditative as fuck and makes me feel like a paleolithic hunter. It's also immensely technical(no where as easy, but 100x more rewarding that shooting a gun). Back of steel, yo.
Motorcycling - I've been riding for 6 years now and commuting through LA traffic for 5 of them. I recently sold my bike, but will get another soon. For fun only - track and canyon runs. Commutes are too dangerous and frustrating.
Gradually picking up guitar
Photography - a girl will willingly strip down if you point a camera at her. But also a fun technical hobby.

Edit: thanks for all your responses. A lot I will have to investigate more. But I'm specifically trying to find stuff to do in the evenings AT HOME.

My 'old' hobbies are reading, TV, and computer games,

Those were not hobbies! That's how you got fat!

Sorry, just breaking your balls.

I play guitar in one band and drums in another. I also do creative writing (am published too!). I also have a track car which is my project when I'm not doing any of those things. It's a love hate relationship. I love when I'm throwing it around a track; the feeling of speed, how your mind focuses and how you're just in the moment with it. I hate it when there's a massive problem and it means a lot of time away from the track. Right now I need a few major suspension components and sadly I don't have some of the hydraulic tools required to fit them, hence will need a garage. Sigh.

Engineer? Fellow electronic engineer here. Times when I want to nerd out, I'll build things with either PICs, Arduino or Sanguino or just some plain old analog stuff. My current electronics buzz is restoring a couple of old Marshall amps I scored on eBay. Again not cheap, but it keeps my mind sharp.

I also teach an adult education class. It's a distance learning class, but requires student contact time, various actual classes and online tutorials and of course grading coursework.

With all this going on, it's amazing I have time for women at all!
