Wread/wred

Deliberately reminiscent of wrote/write, wread/wred is a proposed (by me), at least, past tense alternate spelling of the extant read to finally distinguish the identical and ironic (in relation to their part in literature) English heteronyms; present tense read from past tense read. Either spelling, wread or wred, being readily available as neither are in use by any existing English word, though wred may seem the more official spelling due e.g. to its being the most distinct from other inconsistent pronunciations of the -ea phoneme e.g. lead and lead, especially given the current issue of discernment and the specific address of this definition; the past tense itself, but as the current word is already spelled read and pronounced wread, the gradual shift may be easier by simply modifying the existing word by the mere addition of a letter w' at the start in order to mitigate complaints from pedants who cannot necessarily even, at least, infer the meaning of wred to start with nor the intention of its user to introduce the spelling as opposed to a mock worthy error on the writer's part.

However, keep it mind that it may be best to update the present tense read to be consistent with the update of the past tense, and that, if ever this were to occur, it would likely be done by similarly modifying the present tense read to the spelling wread.

wired tight

The highest state of organization and readiness. Having multiple redundant systems in place. Having everything in working order and planning ahead for any possible issue or scenario. The opposite would be "not being wired tight".

An affirmation of wired tight to another person can be communicated verbally as "dude, you a freaking wired tight", or non-verbally by using a hand gesture in the shape of a "W" followed by a "closed fist".

Latest real example of Wired Tight is the planning, organization and the execution of "Penn Trip 2014".
