一個一個亮了起來


每個燈,都有一個故事。今天,他們一個接著一個亮了起來。

much more to do


一連串的木工,水電工程,終於結束。看著我想做的部份一一完成,相當有成就感。但是也有一些我無法控制的部份有挫折感。
就著週一美妙的陽光,我處理可怕的牆面,聽著俊陽拉二胡。

來一杯Give me one shot

上周五在THE WALL巧遇1976,一起晚餐後,就也留下來聽演出,另一樂團是追麻雀。
聽團早已成為一種生理需求,以前我不太會形容這種感覺,最近我終於找到最貼近的說法:就像生理期時,腰有點兒酸酸,身體有點沈重,而我清楚的知道來一杯熱可可吧!20分鐘之後通體舒暢。對!聽團就是這種感覺!GOOD VIBERATION!讓我暢快地繼續迎接明天的朝陽。
在此期許:就讓寶窩來提供這一杯吧!好飲料!好音樂!

附上我2003在紐約喝的,希望未來在台灣喝得到
CALLA

再一杯MODEST MOUSE

再一杯TURNING MACHINE

不是電音,而是我們每天在用,視為理所當然存在的電力。
地球給我們最好的禮物---明和電機。

喔!NO!這時才發現
寶窩只有110V沒有220V,目前電表申請進度,相關人等均馬力全開的卯足了勁。

寶窩的開幕,請大家再等一等囉!

Color Fun

藍色的會議室使眾人的決議趨向統一,紅色的浴室讓人對自己的身體產生促使其更美好的動力,橘色的餐廳使人愉快地持續進食。
有了Discovery頻道的背書,讓我金色壁紙想搭配橘色的視覺色彩更加確定。
確定此事之後好巧的都讓我在廢墟找的我理想中的椅子。
One sleepless night, I was up watching Discovery. The program mentioned how colors can induce feelings amongst people.A meeting room painted in blue brings out agreement. A bathroom in red will increase the desire to maintain one's hygiene and beauty. A dining room in orange will create the feelings of happiness and fullfillment. Upon hearing this, my thoughts on my golden wallpaper and orange chairs, which I accidently discovered in the ruined house, are confirmed- gold with orange will make my customoers "shit and giggle."

低價跟友人買的燈,也漸進的整理完成,吧檯上方將不寂寞的有視覺焦點了。
The cheap lamps which I bought from my friend, have been repaired! They will be hung over the bar in my store. No more dreary, depressing nights!

這位友人其實只是有片面之緣逛跳蚤市場認識的龐克小子,買燈的這天晚上恰巧我在路邊看到我可以做為吧台面板的檜木,他二話不說地就幫我載,他還帶我到他為之神往的夢幻日式建築,我倆就在午夜時分,靜靜地站在這有大院子的獨棟石子圓弧牆面夢幻廢墟中,心領神會地欣賞著。我想:<美國心玫瑰情>電影裡面他們看著拍到的垃圾袋隨風飄動的畫面應該也是這般的心情吧!
最近,尋找的過程很棒;遇到困難卻也開心;雙手有著踏實的粗糙;身體有翻高牆的能量;心臟在午夜冰冷泳池裡有力的跳動;我可以認出星空中的獵戶座了,他們比前一個月前更往北位移。
I met this punk kid who works at the flea market. He was very kind, selling me some lamps for cheap. Afterwards I stumbled across this beautiful bar thrown out on the street. It felt like fate. Without hesitation the punk flea market kid helped me transport it back to Treasure Hive. After dropping it off, he took me to a beautiful abandoned house dating back from the Japanese occupation. We stood there on the street, admiring it's ghostly presence. I was reminded of the scene in American Beauty when the doped up neighbor filmed the plastic bag floating in the sky.
The process of finding things for my store has been fantastic. I have bumped into numerous problems, but I am still happy. My hands are blistered and callous, but they are stronger for it. My stamina and energy have improved. Scaling walls now is an easy feat. I can feel my heart beating strong as I dive through an icy cold pool. I can now recognize the hunter amongst the insane clump of stars. The stars have moved north a month ago.
