i remember someone saying at one time: "why is your life so boring?
Have you ever tried drugs? Why don't you ever go out? (etc.)" and I
explained that I always was 'way out there'in myself, I never had the
need for drugs, when I went out it was to look at architecture. That,
by my living like this since childhood, having a 'boring' life was
actually not so boring to me.
