I got a translation job this week, a four-page text to have done for Sunday! Needless to say it is not a lot of time to do a translation! I'm half-way done and staying home this evening (as a busy weekend is ahead!) to get some work done on it.I swear it pushes my poor brain as far as it can go! I get about a paragraph done in an hour or so and I just feel like I can't think anymore.... I've got noodles for brains!
So this is my little mini-break :) reading up on blogs and letting the noodles rest for a bit :) Then it is back to the grindstone... wish me luck!
Update: I have found through a scientific study that chouquettes are the best way of fixing said noodle brain :) hehe

Hey, for some reason, I can't find your email address to send you more info about my PDA...can you write to me quick?? If you don't have mine, there's a link to it on my blog.
PS. Congrats on the translating job, I hope you are being well-paid for all of your hard work! What's the subject matter? And is it French to English?
It is paid, not normal translating price but as much as the department can afford to give me. Yeah, its from a prof in the sociology department who did a study on the effects of driving under the influence of various drugs, i'm learning a lot! i think thats why I like translations so much, you learn all sorts of random things! and yup, French to English, otherwise i'd die... :)
