You know I'm a nerd. If you didn't, you'll know it now.
Quickie science note: it takes a lot of energy to change water from liquid to vapour. I won't get into it, but just trust me, it's a lot. I've discovered that I behave the same way as water.
I am totally fine being in one state. I could probably maintain it indefinitely. If there's something I have to do, usually something I don't necessarily want to do, it takes a lot of energy to get me to the point where I start to do it. And then, once I've started, it kind of keeps going on its own.
I've been thinking about this fact for a few months now. I'm not sure where the energy came from, but it got me onto the computer and writing these words. And now it's just flowing out.
In sort of related-unrelated news, my high school's 50th anniversary is coming up next week. Not being on social media has saved me from the likely constant updating of old photos on Facebook and nostalgic tweets. I did venture onto the page a couple of times. The memories came flooding back like a tidal wave. I looked at our photos and thought, holy crap, we were children. At the same time, I haven't really physically changed too much, apart from hairstyles and clothes. So really, have I changed states?
I do hope so.
