WHAT I ENJOY DOING FOR FUN
For fun, I enjoy spending time with my kids, family, friends, & dog. I also enjoy playing and working on my late 2013 Mac Pro. I'm a bit of a computer geek, so I spend a lot of time on my Mac Pro listening to music, checking out social media, playing video games, retouching photos, and designing cool new stuff.
I was also Creative Writer & TOP READ AUTHOR for GoDates: https://www.godates.co/author/william-watson
I enjoy lovely sunny days, and I love to spend time outside getting a tan while having fun. I'm also an avid shopper; I love shopping for new things that will improve my lifestyle (usually on sale, of course).
