Structure correction.

*Oh man, I think talking to me is resurfacing your real personality (the one you managed to bury after years and years of electroshock sessions)*

Is that sentence correct? It looks messed up. I was messing around with this friend when I wrote that, but a whole lot about it seems weird.

Any feedback would be appreciated.

Hi SPI Well, to me, if you say that "something is resurfacing something else", it sounds as though you are applying a new surface to something. I can imagine saying something like this, for example: - The town is resurfacing our street. That basically means the town is repairing our street by adding a new top layer.
