Overly sensitive or overly serious especially.

Very long but well worth it.

Abominable, as in snow man?
Abdominal, as in "gutsy"?
Or "indomitable" as in Energizer Bunny?

it is a good read - but the crash was a little hard to take - just reading about it...

You do know how to turn a phrase - abominable means - "causing moral revulsion". I think you meant indomitable - "impossible to subdue or defeat".

Here's another good read: http://www.danielcohen.org/100days/dream.htm Click on "Journey" at the bottom of the page - this one is one of my favs - and has some great pix. Another one: http://www.motorcyclemisadventures.com/americanborders/ If you can't think of any books to read during the dark months there are plenty of blogs and journals available.
