你們都不愛籐井樹嗎？

阿飛很久以前在論壇放過這麽一個問題，當時我沒回應。今天我忽然了解了爲何有人會愛籐井樹。

05 年尾我到柏斯公幹，不太大卻很重的行李箱裏有禦寒的衣、上班服、IPOD、相機、一雙高跟鞋、一雙靴、一雙拖鞋和一雙運動鞋（這麽一想原來鞋子還帶了蠻多雙），其他都沒有了。我走前 MH （那時他還未被賣豬仔）專程開車到我家為我送來了幾本書，其中一本是籐井樹的 《B 棟 11 樓》。

我在那裏兩個月，那本書我看了兩個月 —— 每天醒后酗咖啡時看，和每天臨睡前讀。

我常常這樣。重復聼一首曲子、重復看一本書，讓内容嵌進腦裏，等到終于厭倦，就再也不回頭多望一眼，然後，在過了蠻久一段時間后，我會忽然想起書裏其中一個章節，或忽然哼出一段旋律。我常常這樣。

我的今天以超級想喝一杯優質咖啡開始，進而聯想到了西雅圖，然後想起了移民了去那裏的Lokes，和從西雅圖移民到新加坡的H。你知道微軟員工喝星巴克咖啡都有 20-3o% 的折扣嗎？座落在西雅圖的微軟campus 造就了一群酗咖啡的傢伙，大多數的微軟員工咖啡不離手。

《B 棟 11 樓》。因爲想到西雅圖，我今天想起了這本書。我想起了書裏面描述西雅圖的字句：

A city of coffeeholic
"I walked into a bookstore in the China Town. I pick up a Chinese magazine and browsed it freely. There was an article said that Seattle was a city of coffeholic. It made me smiled. I have the same impression of this city. When I put down that magazine, the smell of coffee spreaded all over the room then it surrounded me.

Ah, that was the same flavor I smelled in the office almost everyday. On each street of downtown, there was a coffee shop in every corner. It seemed that without coffee, Seattle would lost its soul.

It had been about two months since I started to work. Dad said that my performance was pretty good therefore I may take care of more professional stuff next year. I didn't quite understand what professional sutff was about, but I guessed I would become like Sanica. A girl who took cell phone to everywhere, even in washroom.

Now I started to drink at least three cups of coffee a day, just like Mike and Lily. Since taking drugs was illegal, coffee would be a good substitute. It helped to paralyze my feelings, and kept my heart from thinking of you.

I lived in a city of coffeeholic, and coffee was the soul of the city.
And you lived in my heart.

If i was the city, were you the soul of me?

※ 酗咖啡的城市
在中國城逛書店的時候，隨手翻了翻一本中文雜誌，裡面說西雅圖是個酗咖啡的城市，我笑了，心裡認同的很，才放下那本雜誌，一陣咖啡香就撲鼻而來。

啊，在辦公室裡，我幾乎每天都在聞這樣的味道。而在市區的每一條街道裡，三步五尺就有一家咖啡廳，好像沒有了咖啡的西雅圖，就沒有了城市的靈魂。

開始工作到現在，也已經兩個多月了，爸爸說我的表現很穩定，大概明年就可以開始學習更深入的東西了。我不明白什麼是更深入的東西，但我想明年開始，我可能會像Sanica一樣，連上個洗手間都必須帶著手機吧。

所以，我開始學Mike跟Lily，每天至少三杯咖啡。他們說既然吸毒是犯法的，那就讓自己喝咖啡喝到中毒吧。

我住在酗咖啡的城市裡，咖啡是這城市的靈魂。

而你住在我心裡，若我是一座城市，那麼我的靈魂，是不是你？
