"We introverts have a different style of travel, and I’m tired of hiding it... I am happy exploring a strange city alone. Introverts’ thinking tends to be deep and slow, we require copious time alone, we prefer probing conversation to shallow chitchat, and our social lives are geared more towards intimate one-on-one interactions than “more the merrier” free-for-alls."

" 'The whole universe is in a glass of wine.'
...The glass is a distillation of the earth’s rocks, and in its composition we see the secrets of the universe’s age, and the evolution of stars..."

Cataract - Universe

the worst of the worst handshakes, for me:

"-the wimp...delivered by men who are afraid to "hurt the little lady"

-the "dead fish" ... conveys no power... barely grabs the hand.

-"the "macho cowboy"... almost bone-crunching

- the "four finger"...the person's hand never meets your palm, and instead clasps all four fingers, crushing them together..."

Have you ever shaken someone's hand and in the same instant, felt every bone in your fingers and palm shatter? Or, even worse, felt like you were shaking the fin on a dead fish?
