Right, so you know how sometimes, you know you know a word, but you can't remember it?
The other day, I was sitting around, minding my own business, when all of a sudden a definition ran though my mind. "Over wall watching" is the OED definition of this word, adn I knew this because I actually made a trip to the Ft Worth Central Library to look it up in their copy of the OED. I did this because it was extra credit on a quiz, and the teacher made me very curious as to the definition of the word.
I remembered all of this in a flash, but then I realized something terrible: I couldn't remember the actual word!
I did a quick goodle search for "over wall watching" to no avail, and removing the quotes brought up six million irrelevant results. I was sad. I plagued me for the rest of the day, but I just could *not* remember.
Then, today, in another quick flash, it hit me! Teichoscopy!
I can't even describe how awesome I felt for remembering that word.
