Of course, I'm very very tired, which doesn't help, but it's still really frustrating.
I was reading an article about caffeine, and saw mention of the fact that some people metabolize caffeine at a slower rate than the general population due to a specific cytochrome P450 gene, so then I looked for more info about that gene (just out of curiosity, because I've always felt like I metabolize caffeine unusually slowly.) So I'm reading this wiki article about Cytochrome P450, and it's really complicated and makes me feel dumb. Like, if I have to look up the dictionary definition of half a dozen terms in the first few paragraphs, that's a bad sign, you know?
