北京的冬天来了，干冷干冷的，还有一如既往灰色的天空。

刚刚从哈尔滨回来，出差的那些日子，很忙碌，夜里2点睡觉，早上6点起床。酒店里很温暖，和户外的冰雪天地简直是两个世界。那几日，哈尔滨一直在下雪。清晨，打开酒店的窗帘，雪景，俄式高大建筑衬着的白色，纯净，天空蓝得透彻，空气中的味道清新而湿润。享受过幸福的早餐，开始一天天的忙碌。偷闲，下班后，和同事打车在哈尔滨转了一圈：带着小圆帽子的索菲亚大教堂，松花江（冰），有趣的仿俄罗斯小饰品，地道而精致的东北菜，红肠……
不管怎样，利用出差的机会可以离开北京，四处走走看看，也是件开心的事情。爸爸说，读万卷书不如行万里路。见的多了，心境也自然平缓了许多。

Office里讨论最多的话题就是经济危机和裁员，一起工作过的同事，有几个也已经离职了。告别，似乎没有比这更让人觉得难过了。悄然无息的打包走人，想起来都有点害怕。陷在某种情绪中，像是被钝器击中，又像是童年时的奔跑，不小心摔了一跤，胸口沉闷，无法呼吸。一种被隔膜的不真实感。
经过了一段时间的悠闲，又开始忙忙碌碌了，盯着电脑屏幕，眼睛酸酸的，还要加班。安慰自己：这年头，有活干就已经很好了，每天的工作都能把自己的工资挣出来养活自己，还有余额可以支付一些办公费用。那么，我们应该还可以正常的工作生活吧，不用担心太多。
承载着一些负重，未必所有的人都能看淡一些事情。

这段日子，除了八卦消息，开始关心别人的投资计划，掂量着成本或者利润之类的概念；开始关心一些朋友的职业规划，互相劝导要节制消费，合理储蓄，以备不时之需；开始关心柴米油盐、金融危机这些扎扎实实的事情。开始听不到让自己感动的音乐，落泪的光影，彻夜不眠的文字。不得不承认，有很长一段时间，活得很平静，也很事故。既然已经换了一个眼神来看周遭的人或者事，那么也不必期望能够得到任何超脱的答案。唯一庆幸的是面对的一切，至少还很诚恳。

when i get to warwick avenue
meet me by the entrance of the tube
we can talk things over a little time
promise me you won't stay by the light

when i get to warwick avenue
please draw the best and be true
don't say we're okay just because i'm here
you hurt me bad but i won't shed a tear

i'm leaving you for the last time baby
you think you're loving but you don't love me
i've been confused outta' my mind lately
you think you're loving but i want to be free
baby you've hurt me

when i get to warwick avenue oh
we'll spend an hour but no more than two
our only chance to speak all slow
i showed you the answers now here's the door

when i get to warwick avenue
i'll tell you baby, that we're through

i'm leaving you for the last time baby
you think you're loving but you don't love me
i've been confused now that my mind left
you think you're loving but you don't love me
i want to be free, baby you've hurt me.

all the days spent together, i wish for better
but i didn't want the train to come, now it's departed
i'm broken hearted, seems like we never started.
all those things here together,
when i wished for better
and i didn't want the train to come

you think you're loving, but you don't love me
i want to be free.
baby you've hurt me, you don't love me,
i want to be free, baby you've hurt me.
