fret-gloating 

Fretting over a perfect decision that will remove one from an already perfect present. Tends to elicit unfettered gloating once the decision is determined to have been the right choice. Fret-gloating typically appears in social media status posts. Although disguised as fretting, fret-gloating is a double down on bragging.
Allison is fret-gloating in her social media posts again. "Our yearlong vacation to Paris is rapidly approaching just while my garden is looking incredible! Wondering if we're making the right decision?"

Gloaking 

The act of staring at someone while they're eating in hopes that they'll give you some food.
(Jonathan staring at Seth while Seth eats his fries)

Seth: Dude, why are you gloaking at me so hard right now? If you want some, just take it.

Gloaming 

A word used, mainly in the musical Brigadoon, to mean twilight or dusk.
"The mist of May is in the gloaming
And all the clouds are holdin' still
So take me hand and let's go roamin'
through the heather on the hill."
--- "Heather on the Hill" from Brigadoon

Baby Gloaming 

In nature, a Morning’s Gloaming takes place at the exact moment the celestial sun emergences from out of its eastern horizon. Very few people see this birthing of a new day. It’s purported to strike a mesmerizing flash of emerald green light that is revealing of its own beauty and yet, seemingly resigned to disappearing just as quickly! In nature this mystery of a Morning’s Gloaming is meant to eternally take on just that purpose. This is not the given analogy for a Baby Gloaming!
In New Jersey child adoption law, – revised statute, N.J.S.A 9: 3-39 1 b, c - can process infant adoption in much the same way. There are those in the adoption industry who encourage this form of child procurement. We know it’s legally taking place, we just need to see the hidden injustice. These are the works of adoption agencies on the other side of a Baby Gloaming. In reality, this procedure is nothing short of a Soprano’s money laundering scheme! The only difference is that it is not the diapers being laundered. This infant could have been an Unknown Father’s son!
End note: If an adoptive parent falls under this Urban Dictionary’s definition for ‘Baby Glommer’ it is most assured that their colluding with practitioners of Baby Gloaming had transpired. I welcome your chance to dispute this definition of law as always.
The act of Baby Gloaming is to the State of New Jersey, the same as Money Laundering is to the Sopranos.

Political gloating 

When you keep posting pictures or commenting about the winning candidate who you happened to vote for in an election. The reverse of political whining.
He keeps posting about his candidate winning. So tired of the political gloating. They won, it's done, get on w/ life.
