我過了個開心的端午節。
我的爸,媽,姐姐,姐夫,以及兩個不鳥舅舅的小外甥,藉著送粽子給我的名義突擊檢查我家,主要的目的,我想是檢查我有沒有偷偷把房子賣了。
來吧來吧,能來的時候就來唄!天曉得我還能住在這房子多久唷~
as usual, 他們來,他們吃,他們走,留下一窩的混亂和偷偷塞在沙發縫裡的布丁湯匙。其實我挺開心的,雖然租了惡靈戰警裡面卻放了一公升的眼淚 = =因為至少在他們面前,我看起來仍然是健康同時元氣十足的:他們看到我開心,他們就開心,而我看到他們開心,我自己心情也好了起來。
我想獨居是件可怕的事,長久的獨居會讓人改變自己的生活型模。因為收入很差,所以學著吝嗇不與人分享各種心情,什麼滋味都捏在手心怕被人偷走了;學著把不應該自己承擔的痛苦往身上堆,因為我們沒有繳稅,把負擔丟給社會是不負責任的行為。
三十之前,我一直不覺得自己是個孤癖的人,認識我的人也不會同意我是個孤癖的人;不過這兩年來,我開始發現,我好像真的是個很怪的人,怪得像我爸一樣。他可以三十年只有一個興趣,就是聽短波的收音機,不太和人溝通,活在自己的虛構空間裡,抄著一本又本沒人看得懂的筆記...
Like father like son, 我想我會走向小說家這條路,恐怕是家學淵源以及遺傳所致。很多人都勸我要學著過一般人的生活,可是我的想法,居然慢慢傾向於好好把獨居生活過好,好好和我惱人的人格相處...呵,這是不是一個聰明的決定,我得自己好好試試。
光學長提到有關把搖搖晃晃交給神,這點,讓我想起了一首歌,Metallica 的 Fixxxer. 這首歌很好聽,我一開始就很喜歡,不過隨著自己年紀愈來愈來,我愈來愈想弄懂,他們是在什麼心情下,才把這首歌寫出來的。
(受夠星光幫,金曲獎和蔡依林了嗎?來聽歌囉~)

(我實在很不會翻譯歌詞,不過這歌詞寫得真的很好;有沒有什麼神人可以翻翻這首歌呀?我特別喜歡這首歌對神的看法...這首歌裡的 you, 就是神啦~)
****************
巫毒娃娃排排站
身上插滿了罪的針
袮讓我們排排站
插針使我們謙遜
但只有那天來時,我們才會知道:
到底袮是想整死我們,還是只是伸腳絆我們一下呢?
說呀!
袮能抹去父親的錯嗎?
袮能填補兒子離去後母親的失落嗎?
袮能把這糟透的世界變好嗎?
袮能把一切通通重設,讓我們重頭再來嗎?
說呀!
袮能抺去父親的錯嗎?
袮能把我們身上的枷鎖都砍了,讓我們自由自在嗎?
為什麼,為什麼要在一切都美好、恁爸一切順心的時候...
* 你的!
袮又來補一針呢 ?
(下面的歌詞我不翻了,寫得真是好,真的,看英文會比較有感覺)

沒有任何的抗議啦,只是突然想起這首歌而已。

Dolls of voodoo all stuck with pins
One for each of us and our sins
So you lay us in a line
Push your pins, they make us humble
Only you can tell in time
If we’ll fall or merely stumble
But tell me
Can you heal what father’s done?
Or fix this hole in a mother’s son?
Can you heal the broken worlds within?
Can you strip away so we may start again?
Tell me, can you heal what father’s done?
Or cut this rope and let us run?
Just when all seems fine and I’m pain free
You jab another pin
Jab another pin in me
Mirror, mirror upon thy wall
Break the spell or become the doll
See you sharpening the pins
So the holes will remind us
We’re just the toys in the hands of another
And in time the needles turn from shine to rust
But tell me
Can you heal what father’s done?
Or fix this hole in a mother’s son?
Can you heal the broken worlds within?
Can you strip away so we may start again?
Tell me, can you heal what father’s done?
Or cut this rope and let us run?
Just when all seems fine and I’m pain free
You jab another pin
Jab another pin in me
Jab it
Blood for face
Sweat for dirt
Three x’s for the stone
To break this curse
A ritual due
I believe I’m not alone
Shell of shotgun
Pint of gin
Numb us up to shield the pins
Renew our faith which way we can
To fall in love with life again
To fall in love with life again
To fall in love with life again
To fall in love
To fall in love
To fall in love with life again
So tell me
Can you heal what father’s done?
Or fix this hole in mother’s son?
Can you heal the broken worlds within?
Can you strip away so we may start again?
Yeah, tell me, can you heal what father’s done?
Or cut this rope and let us run?
Just when all seems fine and I’m pain free
Jab another pin
Jab another pin in me
Oh yeah
No more pins in me, yeah
No more, no more pins in me
No more, no more pins in me
No more, no more, no more
No, no, no
