The one where I didn't have a brain.

You know those moments when you say something really smart or witty and you think to yourself, "Man, I am a genius!" Or those times when you do something really awesome, so you hold up your hand because you know deserve a high five. And even though it stings, you accept the other three consecutive high fives because that sting is the sting of intellectual victory. Those are the moments that make you feel good about yourself; that make you realize you've got something to offer. Think about it. Feels good, doesn't it?

You know what doesn't feel good? When the complete opposite happens. You didn't say something smart or witty--you didn't do something really awesome. Somehow in some way you just looked like a dingus. Put your hand down..no one's high-fiving that.

Tonight I congratulated one of my friends for doing an awesome job in Spring Sing.
Come to find out, they weren't in Spring Sing.

Dingus.
