暫時脫離一下

一早還是跟盈秀直奔陽明山，結果半路開始下起颱風雨，就直接往國銘學長在菁山的辦公室去了。

今天是國銘學長在陽管處所剩的倒數第三個日子，禮拜五就要去雪霸報到，我猜自願請調的最大原因，應該是在陽明山每天與硫磺味共處真的讓人很難受，還有愛車無止盡生鏽的辛酸歷程。趁大雨來的尷尬，學長帶我們參觀保育課裡的動物標本館，做動物標本原來也有專門的公司，我想那一定滿有意思，至少能幫意外身亡的猛禽留下帥氣的樣子就很不得了。此外陽管處看起來真的一派優閒，看中庭裡養的那隻被人放生的烏龜爬呀爬，讓人完全無法理解要往哪個方向地擁有整片草皮；還有大剌剌地停在玻璃窗上的枯葉蝶，一身完全派不上用場的防身術，說有多悠哉就有多悠哉。

儘管山上總是涼快，還是要每間五坪大的辦公室一定備有冷氣，這是說不出所以然的公家機關道理。倒是國家公園的辦公室很人性化，職員各自擁有一間辦公室，可以關門鎖門隨便你，不知不覺地，我們的話題就落在"上班的時候可不可以鎖門偷睡覺?"這種很五四三卻很實際的話題上。

答案是:"真的很累的時候可以偷偷睡一下。"

雨遲遲停不下來，即使雨停，樹也溼透了，學長正在收拾打包自己的東西我們光出一張嘴也幫不上忙，也就下山，讓我偷得了一天下午還補了眠。

這幾天沒有打算再去中研院，準備款款東西上山，脫離整天冷氣吹不停的實驗室生活，也好。

Older Chests - Damien Rice [0]


Older chests reveal themselves
Like a crack in a wall
Starting small, and grow in time
And we always seem to need the help
Of someone else
To mend that shelf
Too many books
Read me your favourite line

Papa went to other lands
And he found someone who understands
The ticking, and the western man's need to cry
He came back the other day, you know
Some things in life may change
And some things
They stay the same

Like time, there's always time
On my mind
So pass me by, I'll be fine
Just give me time

Older gents sit on the fence
With their cap in hand
Looking grand
They watch their city change
Children scream, or so it seems,
Louder than before
Out of doors, and into stores with bigger names
Mama tried to wash their faces
But these kids they lost their graces
And daddy lost at the races too many times

She broke down the other day, yeah you know
Some things in life may change
But some things they stay the same

Like time, there's always time
On my mind
So pass me by, I'll be fine
Just give me time
Time, there's always time
On my mind
Pass me by, I'll be fine
Just give me time

剛好在聽這張。那天跟鵝看了"大公司小老闆"才知道這張真是電影配樂的熱門專輯，聲音滄桑的緊。
