My post yesterday mentioned a life avoiding alcohol, tobacco, and firearms. This extends to caffeine and drugs, including performance enhancers.
Why? As I wrote for Disability Pride Month, I want to see what I can do without it all. I don't want it to impair me on top of cerebral palsy. I want to think and move as well as I can, whenever I may need.
To show I'm not overthinking, a memory:
During Bouchercon 2013 in Albany, a police officer stopped me walking from my hotel to the con venue around 7:30 AM.
"What's your name?" he asked.
"Gerald," I said.
"Gerald?"
"Yes."
And he drove on.
I'll never know, but I guess he took my gait for drunken.

Hey Gerald, this is Graham Powell. I was just organizing my links and found your site. It seems like a hundred years! I am still writing and occasionally even publishing. How are you doing?
