低沉的思索

雨水总在梦境里头流下，消失。剩下的潮湿草地，起床梳洗后我踏着去上班。
上班是常态。是习惯的动作，是众目睽睽下最好的伪装。
就算只是在办公室里头倒数放工，雨还是下着，专注而稳定，雷声有力，闪电充满生命力。
我听着雨声，生命力的滴答滴答。眼睛半闭，总是不够睡的昨天。

迟睡

我想我是属于正常人的范围，一天八小时的睡眠刚刚足够。虽然说每个人需要的睡眠时间不同，所谓八小时不过是一个普遍的平均数值﹔可我平时没午睡没生病夜晚睡到笫二天自然醒恰好八小时的距离。所以我的睡眠需求是一个普遍的数值，而普遍多意味正常，对于非常人的一天只需三、四小时睡眠，我是带点敬佩又羡慕，洒些认命情绪的。
三分之一是蛮大的一个部份，我尽量符合身体的自然作息，但奉行的生活方式不时侵蚀那三分之一的睡眠国土，续而影响日间生活的领土，周而复始的恶性循环。尤其是上班这回纪律事件和睡眠不足先天上拥有最大的冲突。上班日我得在六点半起身（不理前一晚多迟入睡），洗刷准备一番后在七点一刻步出家门。下班后通常在七点前离开，回到家都是七点半以后了。如果说要遵随八小时的睡眠时间，十点半前必须入睡。所以我剩下三小时的缓冲，来容纳工作以外的事情。
而这三小时常常放纵的臌胀，第二天的不停瞌睡就像臌胀到极点的汽球破掉，掉落满地的破碎精神。我时时警惕自已要保持充足睡眠，却因不甘被纪律限制的享乐而做罢。譬如星期一，我在放工后看了两场欧洲电影节的电影，回到家已是凌晨十二点。结果那天睡不到六个小时而造成的星期二上班时严重瞌睡的迷糊感，令我有种虚度光阴的挫折感。星期二只看一部电影，回到家还不到十点。原打算十一点上床睡觉，可是后来在msn和朋友商讨周末摄影计划时他说要吃西米露，我很惊讶的问他那种时刻哪里找西米露吃。他说他知道一个地方，我说你来接我吧。所以那晚我们去了市中心的一间著名糖水店，接近午夜时分的街道很安静，可是店里的人潮不绝，有中年人和小孩的家庭式客人，有一大半少年的学生客人，有携手同行的青年情侣。我有点奇怪为什么他们都可以这么迟还不睡觉，应该是他们第二天不必像我这么早起身上班，或是他们需要的睡眠时间比较短。这座城市就是这样子由不同的人运转着吧，我看着面前的朋友的黑眼圈，听着他说起昨天凌晨五点才入睡的事情。就在凌晨的闹市间，我吃了一碗红豆沙，大家聊天到深夜一点，重回上班族前身的学生时代的熟悉感。那个时候我都没顾虑过睡眠足不足够这样子的题目啊。

Affordable Auto Insurance

By Terry Ross

It’s amazing how much you can save on your auto insurance if you are prepared to shop around and if your are looking for affordable auto insurance then there is no better place to start than on the internet.

A good percentage of motorists are paying auto insurance premiums that are just too high because they fail to get competitive quotes when it comes to renewal time. There are plenty of insurance companies that offer more affordable auto insurance if you are prepared to take a little time to look around.

I know people that have seen nearly a 50% drop in auto insurance premiums just by swapping to a more affordable auto insurance provider.

A lot can change in just a year so just because you believe you got the best possible quote when you took your auto insurance policy out it doesn’t mean that you have the most affordable auto insurance now.

• For a start you have another year’s no claims and you may have changed your car and just used the same auto insurance company for speed and ease. However, even if your auto insurance provider offered you the most affordable solution for one car it doesn’t mean to say that you won’t get a more affordable auto insurance quote if you have changed your car.

• Then there are new auto insurance providers coming into the industry all the time and others may have changed their pricing structure in order to gain a bigger percentage of the auto insurance market.

• Your existing auto insurance company may have decided to increase their premiums at a higher rate than their competitors which could mean that you can get more affordable auto insurance through another auto insurance provider.

• You may have changed the number of named drivers or the youngest driver on your auto insurance policy may have reached a milestone age which will help make your auto insurance more affordable.

• You may have moved house into an area which insurance companies deem safer and will be prepared to offer you a more affordable auto insurance premium.

There is any number of reasons why you should always seek competitive insurance quotes and just because you have been saddled with high car insurance premiums in the past it doesn’t mean to say you shouldn’t seek more affordable auto insurance in the future.

Use the internet as a good starting point prices on the net are getting more and more competitive with discounts being offered if you buy your auto insurance online. If you aren’t sure which companies to get affordable auto insurance quotes from first you might want to try a couple of the larger insurance companies who have been in the auto insurance business for a considerable period of time such as Progressive Insurance or State Farm Insurance.

Happy hunting, go experience the pleasure of snapping up a bargain, your quest for affordable auto insurance could leave you with a lot of spare cash to burn!

无趣

我也不确定是不是因为我感冒的关系。
心里跑出一头野兽
往时间后边飞奔
那些我还没看见的未来
都被他衔走了
然后
然后是空荡的游乐园
秋千摇摆之前的一千次欢笑
跷跷板像昨天和明天交替般起伏着
一千个孩童发出的嬉闹声
和寂静一样
贴切的形容这座游乐园
我心里那座永远没有建梭的游乐园
没有人来过
也没有人离开
所以幸福摩天轮留在图测
你说我无法一个人完成的
我知道
我的确明白一个人乘搭的摩天轮多么无趣
旋转木马也是
我不懂得唱歌
你说没有音乐的木马多么无趣
和我的坐姿一样
无尽的沉思
直到好奇心耗尽
明天的事情显得无趣
明天的明天的明天
心里的那头兽都不会回来了


其实也没关系
“再眷养一头吧”，你说
可是我不知道我要怎么样的未来。我身体健全，基本的思考逻辑系统都有很好的连结。取得学位毕业后顺利上班，工作之余还有自己的兴趣，也从中享受到快乐。朋友都很好，大家相处融洽。偶尔回乡探望家人，大家都过得不错。就这样子过了若干年，好像真空里的摩天轮不用多加力量就能够旋转，我没有动力，或者是热诚。工作的展望放在一旁，总觉得自己没法工作得更加用力。生活继续在重复里头沉沦，高潮低潮也无所谓。不懂是不是沉溺于小孩的童话心态，总不愿承担责任。所以一般的供车供楼与我无缘，一个人在这座城市两袖清风，总觉得如果有一天我要突然间离开地球的话都可以没有太多不舍。我懂有人又要骂我了，不懂是不是感冒的关系，我写了这些。

五公分的私语

我记得去年的同一个时候我们第一次出游，那时荷花茂盛的绽放。我还没有长镜头，只能捕捉靠近池岸的荷花。今年此刻我们再来，荷花却已凋零，满池残叶余花。我带了长镜头，却没有选择里头的荷花让我用阳光作一幅脱俗的荷画。所以我转到广角，在五公分处对一众凋零私语：明年花会开。
