Today Linda gives us the following to consider as we do our Stream of Consciousness writing today:

Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is “deep.” Use it any way you’d like. Have fun!

The first thing that came to mind was the idea of ‘going deep’ as in conversations that dig below the surface to our deepest thoughts. I think there have been a lot of deep conversations during this time of Covid-19. Sometimes the conversations are too deep and I find the deep dive too much. That’s when I move on to something lighter.

Like Jack Handey. You know the guy from Saturday Night Live back in the 80’s. He wrote this one-liners called “Deep Thoughts” which were satire-type bits of humor. Now, though, when I read them, they aren’t funny any more.

Do you remember the song Deep Purple? The version I remember is by brother and sister duo Nina Tempo and April Stevens in the mid 1960s. Several people recorded the song over the years.

Now I am remembering the movie “The Deep” and the scene most men really liked. The scenes featured Jacqueline Bisset tank diving underwater. Sorry, guys, I am going to make you look that one up on YouTube yourself. 😂

I am stiff and could really use a deep tissue massage, but of course, in these social distancing times, that will definitely need to wait. Luckily, I have an electric back massager with an option for heat which does at least help some. It is not deep tissue by any means, but I will take it.

That’s about it for me. I have gone as deep as I can on this Saturday morning. If you want to dive deep with the rest of us, head over to Linda’s for all the rules and join in the fun.
