Howdy! My big thing is poetry! Reading, writing, teaching, I love it! Recently my students and I have been really into Ron Padgett and Louise Glück. I have also been on a little bit of a horror lit kick recently and revisiting some Stephen Graham Jones favorites. Otherwise, I love getting outside, both in nature and in the city I live in. I don't think there is anything better for quieting the mind than a long, long walk. I live to travel, especially in the western US.
