It comes with less artificiality, and I like it. How are you doing? Been long since ... I was drunk (?). I moved to other place in same apt. complex. Was near the main street that mercilessly produced nasty traffic noise; is deep inside at which I find (almost) anything around agreeable. You moved? The weekend before last, went to the IKEA, Swedish furniture chain, with Sister and her altar-ego (my brother-in-law). Bought a cute hedgehog stuuffed toy for Dong-ju (two and half months old), cotton bed blanket cover, a brown wardrobe with black handles which they say pure Swedish, and a small brown wall clock with Indian designed black strips on. Sister bought a white, bit tall, cloth chest with yellow, cut handles (for Dong-ju). Quite a list, eh? We dropped in a bar; they got cocktails, me whiskey. Forgot cocktail's name, but I'm sure it wasn't "screw-driver" for that's the only name I know. Two human beings who are called Dong-ju's mom and dad looked happy and quite honestly, beautiful: God saw it that was good ... (amen). I looked at my whiskey. It, like a beautiful woman, demanded appreciation. Brother got UCLA. He's staying at dorm. I helped him with moving stuff. Peaceful, calm night we sat in front of the Hershey Hall, looking up at sky. "What do you think?" "Feel like I'm just checked in at a cheap motel," answered Brother. "Campus?" "I miss MY junior college." "You will get through it." "Say, get a girl [for me] before I get kicked out. Will you?" "Are all engineering majors cynical like you?" "Care for a cigarette?" He lited one and passed to me. "Sure, pretty night, eh?" I slowly drove to La Jolla. Take care. -------------------------------------------- 혹시라도 어쩌다가 아픔같은 것이 저며올 때는 그럴 땐 바다를 생각해 바다 ... ----- 김민기의 <봉우리> 중에서 ----------- J jhan@ucsd.edu |
