Cool dude.

I'm sitting here sharpening my old Ka-Bar (that I use for the hard work; it's held up through it all).

I want to get some type of [decent] bowie knife some day. Not cheap.

They tend to change once a month, go on for a month, go to something else, and then eventually I'm back on it again.

* Repeating patterns, for example tileable/seamless textures. Specifically rocks/minerals. With very HQ textures, I like to feel the texture of the pattern with my eyes. Sometimes I make these images from bits and pieces or specific small areas of photographs (of rocks and minerals). I'm very fond of different types of rocks/minerals.

* Spreadsheets. There's something soothing about them! I make spreadsheets for a variety of different things. Many times pointless things. Sometimes useful things for work.

* Geneology. I keep getting leaves pop up on Ancestry and have to continue to follow the trail and cross-examine information I find.

* I get stuck on certain TV shows and that will be the only thing I will watch. It causes disagreements from time to time because I do get a little inflexible about it.

* Reading about ancient history. My ORIGINAL "special interest". As a child I was totally engrossed in learning every thing I could about Sumeria, Mesopotamia, ancient Egypt, the Roman Empire, etc.

* Fossils!

* Radioactive stuff. I'm totally obsessed with the different types of elements, bombs, power plants, etc.

* Space is cool!

And then I circle back to repeating patterns and it starts all over
