Very. The cane must be matched up with your height and the way you walk. There are three different ways to hold the cane properly and you have to figure out which one is best for you. You have to learn how to use your other senses in tandem with the cane. You have to learn to fold it properly so it doesn't snap back and hit you in the face. And you have to be careful that you can doesn't kick back and poke you in the middle (which really hurts). You have to learn to walk through traffic. And how to navigate when there's no sidewalk. Not to mention you have to learn to walk with a guide, something I still have trouble with since I don't really trust people very much.
Thanks for the education. I had no idea.

I worked the nightshift in a warehouse for a year before I went to bootcamp. So I was a tall, slender, very pale fellow with black hair. My drill instructor kept calling me a vampire.

I've been known to get that on occasion. It mostly has to do with me hissing anytime I like is too bright. Which means all the time.

RE: Nicknames
I think "Asshole" has been my most popular nickname, although it may have been a family name.

People called me Kevin Bacon a lot in high school because I looked so much like him. ( I don't anymore)

My mom called me bug forever. Other than that, maybe just the abbreviated use of my first name, and that's only by some people.

I've had quite a few pet names, but to me, those are different than nicknames. The only nickname I've ever had is Rae, and lots of people call me that.

Big B has been a nickname for a while, since around middle school if my memory serves me correctly.

B-man/B-dog came around in highschool because I had one of my friends tag the back of my hoodie with a bulldog and he wrote B-man above it.

And back when I used to work in a pizza place one of my managers started calling me Big Pimpin (or Big P) and that stuck for a while too.
