When you do enough of any kind of translation, you get to the point where you no longer really need a dictionary, except for really unusual, new terms. The bulk of your time is divided between grokking and writing the translation. I finished the incoming document a while ago, and it is on its way to the ultimate recipients. I feel a sort of buzz, which is doubtless the result of revving myself up to get the text translated.

A couple of nights ago, I woke up with a cramp in my right hand. The hand no longer cramps, but any attempt to use the hand to, for example, unscrew the top from a bottle of water (which only happens a few times a day around here) results in sharp pain. I visited the campaign's doctor and he prescribed an ACE bandage to immobilize the hand for a few days. I take the bandage off to type, but otherwise am following doctor's orders.

I need to go make sure I wake up in time for the 7 am van tomorrow, and then get to sleep.

Cheers...
