Hobbies and Work
There are no real differences between hobbies and work for me - anything I do at work, I actually like to do so much that I also do it in my spare time. This includes hosting root servers and virtual servers, providing webspace and domains, programming, design and other aspects of web development.
It's especially fun whenever new challenges come up while programming - I mean unusual scenarios and thus problems I can develop solutions for.

Creative
In my spare time, I sometimes also create music, given that I actually got some ideas. From time to time I also like re-designing images/designs, to use them for other purposes - for example digital editing of photos to improve quality, or simply playing around with different graphical effects to see what they would look like together.
Motivation
Many certainly know this feeling: sometimes you're just not motivated to do anything. One way I found to counteract this is sports - in moderation! For example muscle building using a dynamically adjustable dumbbell (5 to 30 KG) or simply running until there are cramps in both legs for three days. It's just fun and helps me getting motivated again. But I don't overdo and only use this enough to be motivated again for the things that really matter.
Games
Tastes changes, even regarding computer games. But there are some types of games that I can always enjoy - especially fantasy games (single player and MMO) as well as scifi games. Minecraft as well, but more due to the Redstone aspect of it. Other than that it's mostly games like all Gothic games, all Elder Scrolls games, Arx Fatalis, World of Warcraft, Lord of the Rings Online, all Deus Ex games and many more.
In general I'm also a huge fan of point'n'click adventures - back then it started with Monkey Island, and nowadays it's also all those games Daedalic releases. I don't even have to name them, because simply ALL of them are absolutely great in my opinion.
