What’s the last thing you noticed that you couldn’t name?

This morning, I was standing at the dock, watching the tide pull back. There was a smell—sharp and old, like wet stone and something faintly sweet, maybe from algae breaking down under the sun. I couldn’t place it. Not salt, not decay exactly. Just… something the water carries when it’s quiet. I’ve spent years studying plankton blooms, but this? This felt like a language I’d forgotten how to speak.
