I had sports after school (Football, Wrestling, Baseball) and during the summer. Any free time I had I built model airplanes and listened to rock and roll & folk music. Of course I dated a lot in the evenings and on weekends. I kept busy and out of trouble...most of the time. I also had a job during the summer, which funded my dating...

Drawing. Both cartoon style and the occasional realistic portrait.
Super 8 film making. I used to do stop motion animations and music videos of me and 3 friends. My wife and I once filmed some dramatic acting making up the words on the spot.

We were brought up by very strict parents and were never allowed to go anywhere unless we had the company of my sisters. We did go to the movies every Saturday afternoon. I loved reading and drawing. Boys were totally out of the picture.

Playing the saxophone/ keyboards and singing and polishing rocks to make jewelry.
I liked polished rock jewelry as a kid. I made necklaces, rings and bracelets. As an adult I wear no jewelry; not a fan. I still sing and play saxophone .

I guess listening to music and once I started working...collecting records, if you can call that a hobby. I also did artwork...drawing, painting on velvet, that kind of stuff.

I didn't answer the second part due I like paint. by the number.
That lead to my mother teaching me how to embroidery, than crocheting.
If I wasn't doing those , I was reading.

Sounds very serious. How many fractures did the leg sustain?
From thirteen to nineteen. Seven years.
Mesmerizingly beautiful picture. Thanks for sharing!

I played guitar. Most often a Fender Telecaster.

Surfing and Band practice took up most of my time.
Never combined the two.
Hard to surf playing a trombone...
(Did take the trombone out sailing once, to greet the Sunrise off Diamond Head.)

The tibia & fibula were broken in a number of paces between the knee and ankle. That was easy enough to screw together, the difficulty was getting the nerve ends to meet up. A couple of younger surgeons had tried and failed and were considering amputation. Mr. Penrose, in the UK a surgeon becomes Mr, as opposed to doctor, it's a kind of inverted snobbery, but Mr. Penrose, aged 72 had been trying to retire, but my good fortune found him on the hospital ward.
Hearing of the other surgeon's prognosis, Mr. Penrose said: "Don't take the lad's leg off, let me try." Coming round from the anaesthetic Mr. Penrose stood at my bedside. "Wriggle your toes for me," he said. Wriggle, wriggle, wriggle. My Dad wept when he shook hands with Mr. Penrose. Full recovery took a long time but thanks to that elderly surgeon, I have lived a life with two good legs.

My favorite scene from R & J. Then there's the balcony scene. And then everything goes to hell and you're sorry you stayed to the end.
But seriously you've put Shakespeare next to Cheech & Chong. Not sure what that indicates about you.
