Then again, there are a few things I've become a specialist in,
but my Obsession Level goes to 11 when I do.* I become a total
Snake eating its Tail when I do.* I scare myself when it's all
over... "Was that... 'me' that had to watch EVERY episode of
Stargate SG-1? Become a Russian Orthodox monk for 3 weeks and
read the entire Philokalia and scientifically analyze the
psychological benefit of prayer schedules for optimum
psychological health and learn Russian to plunge the depths of
Christiandom?** [I could've gone Greek but I liked the "Russian
soul"/dark sense of humor better]... or create an entire
reporting system in Excel when I was just hired for data entry?
Yeah.. I lose myself when I become a specialist.** it's not
bragging.. its frightening - especially for the people around
me... when I talk non-stop about whatever it is I'm obsessed
with for a few years at the time.
