I might actually be good at or enjoy more of my hobbies if I had the discipline to make time for them. Some of my historical hobbies have included:
I am a wanna-be adventure traveller. I think I have more hobbies than I actually do.
I like my bicycle. In 1995, I took a long bike adventure down the western coast of Oregon and California. I commuted almost exclusively by bike this spring, after my car was killed. I like commuting by bike, and I feel lazy when I don't. If you want to get pumped up about bike commuting, read CJ Silverio's web page on bicycle commuting.
I taught myself to juggle during high school. I learned to do three balls, and can do them pretty solidly. I can't do four balls quite as well, but I am practicing four a bunch now, so I'll have it down soon. I am starting to learn to juggle five, but that's still scary. I can also juggle clubs and rings, but only three at a time. I am no good at tricks, but can do the mills mess, which is a really simple thing to do, but really difficult to explain.

Oh, and I'm also learning to pilot a devil stick.
I started to really learn to unicycle in November 1994. I went do a juggling festival in Lodi, CA, and got some basic pointers from somebody there. Since then, I've been working on my own. Except for occasionally feeling like I am twisting my knee from falling off wrong, I am making good progress.
I have made it all the way down my driveway on my unicycle, and all the way back up. I am starting to feel pretty comfortable riding, and have even started to steer. I also learned to get up on the unicycle without holding on to anything else (like a person, post, etc.), which was a lot easier than I expected.
After I get going really well, I'll write up my theory about how to make a unicycle go... The key, it seems, is that you don't use the pedals to drive. You lean to make the unicycle move, and you pedal to keep it underneath you.
I am a beginning sea kayaker, and a wanna-be whitewater kayaker. (I'd probably be a real whitewater kayaker, but there is no whitewater nearby.) I don't have my own boat yet, but I am thinking about building one, probably using the "stich and glue" method. I am trying to learn to eskimo roll, but real life seems to have gotten in the way. Next summer, for sure.
I have a Technician class amateur radio license. I haven't been using it much lately, but when I did, I spent my time on the 70cm and 2m repeater bands. I keep thinking about learning Morse Code (and even have a nice keyer to prove it), but I never force myself to practice.
I am getting closer and closer to having rigging up my handheld radio for use on my bicycle.
