I have a rare blood disorder, the two main bad things about it- makes my blood vessels overreact to the cold making me get colder faster, and the biggy- if I get cold and my body temp drops even a degree or two my blood (abnormal proteins and antibodies in it) starts to gel... yes gel. So I can't stay warm on my own well and if I get cold I can die, the in between state just is slightly painful.
I play guitar when I'm stressed, and I play a lot around the holidays- too much hubbub around shopping etc., which I love, shopping that is,,, just not holiday shopping, the crowds and the florescent lights in the stores drive me batty.
I love old style decor, not old timey, not mod but real old style, Victorian etc. etc. and deplore modern eg: a white cube with a piece of glass on it for a table... ew, abrasive to the soul (my apologies to those with such decor, just not my style at all
I'm a misanthropist, though make no mistake those close to me have my total love, loyalty and adoration... it's all those idiots out there I can't stand... heh.
I once was arrested for riding my motorcycle atop a block wall, onto a bank building and jumping down on a berm on the other side in downtown. They couldn't catch me but arrived later at my house where I saw them out the window feeling the engine of my bike for warmth... they said the recognized me by my black leather pants, I fought it in court based on that but lost.
