Deep Thoughts

Not the Jack Handey Kind.

Have you ever been caught off guard by the question, posed by your significant other, “What are you thinking?”
I have.
Because lets face it, sometimes our minds wander. However, not wanting to let on how shallow and insignificant our train of thought has become, we grapple for something deep and meaningful to have been thinking about so we blurt out something like,
“Us - I was thinking about us.”
This, will generally shut up the inquiring party. If it does not, from there, you paddle your own canoe, because that statement can open a can of worms that you didn’t intend, and the rest of the conversation can go SO many directions.

However, if, we were to answer the question honestly, it might sound something like this:
“Well, first I was thinking that I could really use a cup of coffee, but then I was thinking that I really must stop drinking caffeine this late in the day, then I wondered why inside my own head I would use the word “must” instead of “should” because must is so proper and it’s just me - thinking to myself. I’m not British. Who says must anyway? I must, I must, I must increase my bust. Who said that? I forget, but I remember there were arm motions and everything. I don’t need bigger boobs anyway, I just want them to point the right direction. Not that I wouldn’t appreciate a little cleavage once in a while, but even if I had it, it’s not like I’d be comfortable showing it anyway. Boba stuck her finger down my sports bra earlier today and called it a butt. I don’t want butt boobs.”

See? If we really let on what we’re thinking, we sound very ridiculous.
