I've seriously learned tons of cool things, but I haven't paid attention like this since school.  I totally forgot what it's like to have scrambled eggs for brains at the end of a note-taking day.  I think all the time about how I wish I went back to graduate school. If this is what it's like, hells to the no. Or maybe I could ease back into it, but probably not.  If you still take notes all day and do the brain sponge thing, mad props.
