  Also considering that the only woman he loved was dead, and that he 
had no intention whatsoever of another romance, perhaps his persoanl 
appearance meant nothing to him. His body was just somewhere he lived, 
wether his hair was greasy or his nails were clean was totally 
unimportant to him. That part of himself was shut down if not dead.
