Have I gone off the deep end?

With no intention to brag, I will say I am extremely intelligent, a fast study, and good with my hands. That being said, there are some things I simply can't get until I see it done, and I need to see it in just the right way that makes sense to me.

You know your friend, so you know best how to translate skills in a way that will make most sense to her. The only deep end you jumped into is the great friend pool.
