Late Inspiration

Why is it that inspiration always hits me after the moment has passed?

Yesterday, someone from the office was introducing some auditors around. They came around to my cube and noticed that, despite being in a cube, I have a good view. First off, let me show you how the conversation went:

Auditor

Wow, you have a nice view from your cube. You must be special.

Mike

Well, I try to be.

Pretty lame, huh? It was not a scant 5 seconds later that a much better retort came to mind. I only wish the conversation had played out this way:

Auditor

Wow, you have a nice view from your cube. You must be special.

Mike

That’s what my mom tells me.
