Not like it sounds . . . Gruntle

\GRUN-tul\ (verb) : to put in a good humor

Some people don't look like their names. You know, there's the Mike that you always want to call Phil because he just doesn't look like a Mike or the Mary who acts more like a Jessica. Here's a word that sounds like it should mean just the opposite. Maybe it's too much like grumpy or grungy, or . . . but if I were asked to pick it off a multiple choice quiz, I'd miss this one. Hey, knowing the meaning has put me in a good mood. Maybe that's it . . .
