Library card catalogue, 1978

Actually, it's been awhile (over a year) since I last went to the library. I kind of have this large fine for way overdue crafting books (buy my stuff and I can pay them, lol!).

But when I'm not avoiding them, I practically live in libraries. Heck, I was the kid who used to cut class, in high school, to spend time reading books in the public library, next door. I wonder if they've changed their policy about letting students in during school hours? :)

So, how about you? When was the last time you visited the library? Hopefully it's been more recent than me.

The prompt was to name a great movie soundtrack. I'm going to be generous and name two, because I'm old school and what constitutes as a soundtrack these days is definitely not the same as it was when I was younger.
Nowadays a soundtrack is usually a bunch of previously released songs thrown together. If the company responsible for the movie is willing to flip the bill we are treated to the original tunes. If not we get to hear our favorites, rerecorded by unheard of artists. Blech!
In this category I would give props to "Grown Ups", primarily because it's chock full of Geils, but also has a lot of other tunes I grew up with - and almost all by the original artists.
But, like I said, I'm old school. To me a true soundtrack is a collection of songs, or a score written specifically for the movie. My son loves the score to Tron: Legacy. I will admit it's one of the rare true soundtracks I've heard recently and I do like it, but the soundtrack to The Sting is the one that will always have a place in my heart.

Top 3 hobbies?
Well I think we all know my top one, crochet, though it's not really a hobby anymore. Sewing and crochet were the first two crafts I recall my mother teaching me. I loved sewing as a kid. Now, not so much. But crochet is forever!
My number two hobby would be writing. I love creative writing. I'd love it even more if my muses would cooperate, but there you go. I do a lot of fanfiction, in an effort to get my creative juices flowing, but someday I hope to write and publish an original novel. Perhaps a crochet mystery?
My third favorite hobby would be reading. Ironically I'm not a big reader of fiction, though I do have a few favorite stories. Instead I focus on non-fiction, gobbling up all the information I can on whatever subject I'm interested in, at the time. Needless to say, I love my Kindle.
So, tell me about your hobbies.
