Joy Is Overrated.

She totally is! Did you see that dress she was wearing today?

And what's with the dumb name? Come on! That's like naming your kid Enthusiasm.

I'm kidding, kidding, a thousand times kidding. I love Joy as a name.

Of course, I'm also thinking Enthusiasm would be a pretty damn outstanding name too, so maybe I'm not the best person to ask.

It could shorten up so many neat ways! "En." "Thusie." "Thoooz - what's the ups, yo?"

Am I stuck in some kind of wormhole or is this an old post?
What's up with the comment date?
Where do I send in for my refund?

Sharp eyes, there!

I tell you., what happened was, I originally posted it 11/24 for about 90 seconds. Just long enough for me to comment on it, look a good look at it in context, and decide it didn't fit with the flow of its surrounding posts. I don't recall why.

But those gut calls, I never question them! I often have second-thoughts about a post seconds after posting, and return it immediately to drafts. To sit, perhaps marinate, perhaps enjoy a bit of revision and fine-tuning, expansion or tightening up, and eventually (possibly) see republication at a more opportune time.

And then there's all the drafts that don't even get a gasp of sunlight!

I meant to say, "sharp eyes there, mother chumper!"

In the "check out the big brain on Brett!" tone of voice.
