I ride my bike to and from work all year round. Winter biking is fun! Last winter I crashed pretty hard and finally bought a set of studded tires for it, what a difference!

I would pay money to watch this.

I play video games and get stacks of good movies or anime to watch in my off time. There is also working out like swimming, machines, and weight lifting. I also have a cat who provides some entertainment. And then there is the eating...oh yes, the hours of gluttony trying to pack weight on my 6 foot, 170 pound frame.

I do recommend trying to avoiding drugs/alcohol but to each his own. I just know for me a couple winters I got some real good depression kicking with being drunk everyday and not seeing the sun for a few months.

Outdoors: skiing, ice-fishing, enjoy the Northern Lights, walks, bird feeding Indoors: Make a big pot of chili (cooking), enjoy friends, maybe go to Ivory Jacks or the Loon (dancing and live entertainment), 'play' with my cats.
