a gauntlet with a gift in it

So I've titled my blog. Whoopie! Whoopee? Whupie? Whatever. Anyway, it's a little obscure, so I thought I'd take a minute to explain...

"God answers sharp and sudden on some prayers,
And thrusts the things we have prayed for in our face,
A gauntlet with a gift in it."
Elizabeth Barrett Browning

Hmmm... Actually, I think that sums it up pretty much perfectly. What else is there to say?
