saying it

Lately, chemistry has been on my mind.
If I could, I would do a 6 hr. monologue randomly detailing everything
I've learned so far.
The feel of the words as they leave my mouth is remarkable.
My understanding is refreshed and I'm surprised at how much I still
remember.
It's like remembering that you speak Latin or something.
Yet, I still grapple with a lot.
But my favorite part is slowly articulating the big concepts,
trying to make it come together...imagine watching the eating
of a whole steamed artichoke in slow motion backwards so petal by
petal the vegetable regains it's stature...so what's left can be
held, can be moved, can be placed.

I probably couldn't stay on topic for 6 full hours.

I'd probably have to tell you something Theta had said.

We'll see how long this urge lasts. If it makes it's way into
Amy and Nate's wedding. If after Sean brings me our Gen Chem book
I ever read it like I want to and if I do read it if after that I'm still interested.
