The plate was replenished to overflowing today (to the point where I started to turn work away), and over the past half hour or so, I've taken a break from translation to figure out how to schedule my time during the next week or so.
I had hoped to find the time to go chew the fat with Feht about stamps—or anything, really, just not to think about translation—and to visit the kids for longer than my usual 20-minute "Hi, kids! Bye, kids!" strafing runs, but this is not going to be the weekend for that.
There's quite a bit going on, more about which later, but the upshot of it all is that I've got about 11,000 words to get done by Monday, after which I'm going to have to find time to do things other than work for a couple of days, despite deadlines that loom on Wednesday and Friday.
If I can do a couple more hours today, it will ease my overall load, but somewhere during the past week—it may have been a post on Lifehacker (it was)—a sentence caught my eye. It read:
Cheers...

Don't ignore your dreams; don't work too much; say what you think; cultivate friendships; be happy.So maybe I'll just coast the rest of today, whaddayathink?
