Hydrological production

My thinking and production cycle is like the hydrological cycle.

I do rivers of reading, leading to oceans of notes, all jumbled up with other rivers of reading.
Then sunny thinking evaporate this knowledge into clouds of confusion, floating around my head until the cold fronts of deadlines condense it all into written production. Which will possibly lead into further rivers of reading for myself and others. Sometimes it drizzles, sometimes there are short, sharp showers and sometimes heavy downpours accompanied by thunder and lightning. All entirely unpredictable.
And sometimes there's a drought.

I could take the analogy further (transpiration, depression, saturation, brain-storm, mind-shower etc) but I'll leave it with the comment on how many English words there are for precipitation as opposed to the paucity of terms for thinking.
