Health
I always take my health for granted. I stay in shape but only for vanity. I once went 9 days without eating and I saw a flying saucer. Death has never worried me. I am sure I told you I was born with a heart that is too small.
I am an epileptic And have Parkinson Syndrome. I am very OK, but the one thing I wish is that no one would ever ask me again why I am shaking. It is embarrassing and rude. Today a too loud cashier asked me with a long line of people behind me. I felt like melting.
Basically it is none of your business. If you need to ask do it privately. Epilepsy is the scariest thing. You never know when it will happen. You just fall and bang your head on the floor. My wife of course knows, but it is never something you bring up at a job interview.
To all those curious ones. I am well aware when I am shaking and don't need you to tell me.

From drug use to Parkinson's and beyond, they should just outlaw dopamine, it seems to cause too much trouble. :D

I say that by way of "yeah, life can make you pretty conspicuous sometimes!"

There was a guy with bad Tourette's on the bus one day, not cursing as is the stereotype but twitching, jumping and making sudden odd sounds. It was like he had some humorous demon in him. I was very curious about the reactions of others - the driver was conscious enough to think about a drunk passenger, but then discount the thought and just hope for the best. The guy could "turn it off" for short periods of time, and we talked about it, a very strange way to be disabled! He was also somewhat humorous about it.

:-) So glad that you're still in good health.

"I stay in shape but only for vanity", me too. Without the vanity, I can't feel good about myself.
Wow, 9 days without eating and still can see a flying saucer, God must be with you!
