做白日梦

Marriage, children, myriad responsibilities and, ultimately, a 46-year job as an auto mechanic gradually turned his concept of a bucket list into little more than a bittersweet memory of lost opportunities and a mental exercise he occasionally thought about to pass the time while working under the hood of a car...

结婚、养育孩子、各种各样的责任，还有一份做了46年的汽车维修工作，令他那张「身前事清单」变成一连串悲喜交集的回忆和错过了的机会，只成为一些他在车底工作时打发沉闷时间的白日梦。

It is like two children , hiding out behind the shed , making a cigarette out of corn silks , and sitting there in delight saying ,"My father will kill me ,""My mother would kill me if she knew what we were doing ," when the mother and father are absolutely incapable of even becoming angry because their nature is love and it is incomprehensible to them that this silly behavior behind the shed is just cause for judgment of any kind , or that it calls for anything other than just slight amusement at the fantasy of the children .

这好似两个小孩躲在草棚后头，手持着玉米须，卷成了香烟，窃窃自喜地坐在地上说：「老爸铁定会杀了我。」「要是老妈知道我们在抽烟的话，她也肯定会杀了我。」而事实上，父母根本无从生气，因为父母天性是爱，也搞不懂躲在后头做那样傻事有什么好骂的，这类孩子气的白日梦只会让他们觉得好笑而已。

His Walter Mitty dream, as he said once, was to take his boat and leave "the daily flow of this miserable world".

你刚才对一个在你开车去上班途中抢道的家伙大骂；你的孩子开始经常骂你死巫婆；午饭才不久你就开始做喝鸡尾酒的白日梦。
