My Day Thoughts...

.
So its has been awhile since i went to sleep with the same thoughts i woke up with. and after i did some self-evaluation of my thoughts it reminded me of a scene in my favorite book "Their Eyes Were Watching God".  A friend of mine's always gets on me about relating situations in books to real life...but what can i say.

Scene goes a little something like this:

Janie the main character of the story has fallen for a younger guy ,Tea Cake, but she is trying her best to treat him otherwise.  In this particular scene they were having a very late night in which Teacake confesses his love(like) for Janie. At this point in the story they have only spent time together in the late evenings.

So Jaine says to him:
"Aw, Tea Cake, you just say dat tunhnight because de fish and corn bread tasted sort of good. Tomorrow yo' mind would change."


Tea Cake left that night..and the whole next day Janie didnt hear from him. She sat in her room trying to think all these negative things about him (you know how women are, sometimes). She had herself thinking he was probably taking up with another woman, and just basically showing his age.  So she thought so much that she fell asleep, but awoke to a knock. It was Tea Cake of course...and her comes the point of the story.

"Hello, Mis' Janie, Ah hope Ah woke you up."
"You sho did, Tea Cake. Come in and rest yo' hat. Whut you doin out so soon dis mornin'?"
"Thought Ah'd try tuh get heah soon enough tuh tell yuh mah daytime thoughts. Ah see yuh needs tuh know mah daytime feelings. Ah can't sense you intuh it at night."


Ladies and Gents thats where he had me (Tea Cake).  With that being stated, I dont ever take anything/anyone too serious if they dont invade my day time and night time thoughts. Lets just say someone is doing a very good job invading both.
