Cassie's over, she's waiting for her fiance to turn up so we can have dinner, she's doodling idly on a piece of paper.
"Tell me what to draw," she says.
"A chicken."
"What, just a chicken?"
"Okay," I say, kinda concentrating on my own thing and not really paying attention to her. "Solving binomial equations."
Two minutes later:

Good one, Cassie:-)
I find it very commonplace that the more the gift/talent/ability especially in the creative arena - the less the individual in question can see it. Kinda like being in such a bright light they can't see it.
Hmm, maybe I shouldn't post 'early' on Sunday mornings *lol*, but you get the drift :)
