Sitting down to a conversation yesterday I was asked with all seriousness – “Okay, I have to know… do you really have dangerous levels of enthusiasm and friendless?” I promptly respond. “Well, yea… that is what it says on my blog.” When someone prompts me for an idea I have a tendency as my husband says to “firehose” them with ideas.
