Yep, I never did have a bike growing up, never have ridden on one either. No interest in that at all, so why bother learning to do it.
With crayons, I always used pencils to do art work. I preferred greys to the colour so I used just straight pencils to draw with (it does kind of hold true in my decorating style now too oddly enough).
I did grow up poor, but that was not the reason. I just never had a real interest in toys, more so interested in reading and viewing art of varying forms than that. New ideas and perspectives were always the thing I found most interesting. My parents hated trying to find things for me at christmas/birthdays. Biggest pain in the ... to things buy for because none of it interested me whatsoever.
I was a bit odd.
