Dyson陪我玩

幫牙刷洗香香、吹澎澎後，照例一定要搬出Dyson全家吸一遍，否則整個客廳會都是狗毛到處飛。

吸地的時候，刷刷通常都躺在沙發上休息（總是，勞動都是別人，累得都是她大小姐），但今天她卻突然從沙發上一躍而起，像子彈般射出奔到廁所門口。原來是Dyson吸頭碰到牙刷的球，不小心把球用力推了出去。

牙刷把球撿回來之後，咬著球堅持把它“嘟”給Dyson吸頭，被迫停下來看她無聊舉動的媽媽，真是覺得好氣又好笑。

我還經常跟朋友誇口說牙刷有多聰明咧......

EMMA

p.34   〔VOLUME 1,  CHAPTER III〕
She loved every body, was interested in every body's happiness, quicksighted to every body's merits; thought herself a most fortunate creature, and surrounded with blessings in such an excellent mother, and so many good neighbours and friends, and a home that wanted for nothing. The simplicity and cheerfulness of her nature, her contented and grateful spirit, were a recommendation to every body, and a mine of felicity to herself.

p.62   〔VOLUME 1,  CHAPTER V〕
She will never submit to any thing requiring industry and patience, and a subjection of the fancy to the understanding.

p.66   〔VOLUME 1,  CHAPTER V〕
Considering how very handsome she is, she appears to be little occupied it.


p.160   〔VOLUME 1,  CHAPTER XI〕
There are people, who the more you do for them, the less they will do for themselves.

p.238   〔VOLUME 1,  CHAPTER XVI〕
Perhaps it was not fair to expect him to feel how very much he was her inferior in talent, and all the elegancies of mind. The very want of such equality might prevent his perception of it.

p.258   〔VOLUME 1,  CHAPTER XVIII〕
There is one thing, Emma, which a man can always do, if he chuses, and that is, his duty; not by manoeuvring and finessing, but by vigour and resolution.


p.260   〔VOLUME 1,  CHAPTER XVIII〕
If it failed to produce equal exertion, it could not be an equal conviction.

p.308   〔VOLUME 2,  CHAPTER III〕
one never does form a just idea of any body beforehand. One takes up a notion, and runs away with it.

p.354   〔VOLUME 2,  CHAPTER VI〕
I assure you the utmost stretch of public fame would not make me amends for the loss of any happiness in private life.

p.564   〔VOLUME 3,  CHAPTER II〕
General benevolence, but not general friendship, made a man what he ought to be.

p.712   〔VOLUME 3,  CHAPTER X〕

If a woman can ever be excused for thinking only of herself, it is a situation like Jane Fairfax's.-Of such, one may almost say, that 'the world is not their's, nor the world's law.'

最後一抹冬陽〈冬日午后音樂會〉

 

無能

記得幾年前，那個現在被關到瘋的阿扁還在執政的時候，經濟不景氣還是口號，有個德高望重的長輩在某次聚餐泡茶的時候砲轟不成材的政府跟228家屬說，這些人不應該侷限在已經過去的事情上，用這種東西來造成對立，應該拋棄那些無意義的爭執，一起謀求國家的進步。

 

飛奔英姿

記得Discovery有個節目，把通常在我們眼前一閃而逝的現象，譬如說水滴噴濺、子彈打中易開罐等等，用極慢速的拍攝方式紀錄下來，重新播放。
 

末日

這幾天連續作惡夢，料想應與電視影集《Criminal minds》有關，也或者是最近看的《親愛的妹妹》影響也說不定。惡夢這麼親近熟悉，驚悚駭怕傷心生離死別的內容，也已經反覆經歷許多次，又這並非什麼特有的經驗或天份，實在沒有老調重彈的必要。

但昨天的這一場實在太可怕了。夢境的情結毫無邏輯，因此過程在記憶中播放都結結巴巴的。

Blue Noise

我的左下第一顆大臼齒靠近第二顆小臼齒的牙根，有個突出牙根尖外的斷針，時不時就會造成疼痛，痛的時候連自然的咬合都不允許，因為只要跟對咬牙稍稍碰到就疼痛無比。夜裡痛醒，還得在半夢半醒間提醒自己保持嘴巴微張。
