小学四年级·“桑迪”过后的万圣节(2012 Halloween Post-Sandy Storm)
2012-11-02
万圣节前两天,“桑迪 ‘ 人类的捍卫者’ 超级暴风雨”(Sandy Super Storm)突袭美东地区,道路交通中断,电力通讯惨遭破坏,保持已久的传统节日痛失原始习俗,就连主导我家经济命脉、总部设在新泽西 “草”州的银行── 默克 “边界”员工联邦信贷联盟(MEFCU),不仅网络出纳业务瘫痪了一周,而且自动提款系统失灵了整整七天,这回教我体会出什么是“叫天天不应,叫地地不灵,叫鬼鬼不理”,想必史无前例!
对我来说,能否出外上班并不打紧,大不了强令自己安心休养,“人生政自无闲暇,忙里偷闲得几回”?回顾开春以来,公司业务经常为适应新兴市场的经济结构而随机变动,令人甚感世事难料。我曾参与经手过四个重点开发项目,不到一年的功夫便连续枪毙了三个,唯一幸免的前景依然渺茫,随时都有被勒令下马的可能。如今计划哪里赶得上变化快?因此“桑迪”来后,我反倒情愿借机稍事歇息,这样对缓解身心负荷也许极为有益。
短路上不了网没啥关系,眼不见美国大选争权夺利,心不烦驴象两党唇枪舌战,天下少了谁地球照常运转!无论奥巴马继任总统,还是罗姆尼新官上任,都要面对旷日持久的经济颓势、劳工失业、房贷紧缩、全民医改、税收制度、移民政策、财政赤字、伊拉克阿富汗两国撤军等一系列棘手问题,内忧外患。
缺银少两手头没有现钞也无大碍,难得被赶鸭子上架,何不索性拿起信用卡当令箭?!旧社会饿死胆小的,新社会撑死胆大的,大敌 (“桑迪” )当前套死麻木的!全美大选在即,秋季一对一家长会来临,后天我还要抽出半天时间到孩子班上做义工服务,……内政外交样样刻不容缓;家中被超级暴风雨刮到的树木亟待清理,房屋下水系统需要检修保养,院子里铺天盖地的残枝碎叶尚在扫除,……家务琐事件件十万火急!幸好信用卡公司大发慈悲,豁免灾区民众一切有偿利息包括现金预支,并取消因停电而造成的逾期罚款,人间温情让我领悟到爱的力量。
在 宾夕法尼亚 “山林”州,一年一度左邻右舍夜间讨糖闹鬼活动已经兴盛了60年,“桑迪”唐突造访,使得万圣节热闹不再。因为北宾州整个学区在万圣节的当天停电停课,所以顽童们干脆把“停课或是请客”当作口头禅挂在嘴边,只要不去上学,居家自由散漫想干什么就怎么做,人人乐不可支。这么一来,新近添置的“吸血鬼”套装反倒成为家中多余的摆设,孩子勉强试穿在身,照个相留个影,总算没辜负我一片心意。错后两天的星期五,全校将以班级为单位,象征性地举办一个别开生面的万圣节联欢聚会,穿着什么样的服饰,扮演何种妖魔鬼怪,似乎已不是大家关心的重点,对“酒”(水)当歌,人生几何?
希望明年万圣节,孩子们能够乔装打扮,挨门逐户地乞讨要糖,自由自在地“捣蛋或是请客”!
