Taking a break...

alexpgpThings were going pretty slowly, there, and may go that way again... I don't know.
I finally got started on today's translation work around 1:45 pm, and by 3:30, I'd only translated about 160 segments. However, this kind of work is not linear. A number of the segments I translated today and yesterday repeat (either exactly or approximately), so there are a number of segments that are "done" for all intents and puposes... I just have to make sure they're correct before moving on.
In any event, things started to speed up as I went. From 5:00 to 5:30, I translated more than 150 segments. Go figure.
After two bowls of Galina's borscht, I decided to drive over to Drew's and take Huntur for another "round the block walk." It went well. During the home stretch of that walk, we stopped and tried to find some ducks to feed, but the birds in the lake across the street from the kids' apartment are wild, and would no sooner remain near people than they would voluntarily fly into a lit stove.
Anyway, I feel refreshed and rested, with 70% of today's self-imposed quota under my belt (210 segments to go!).
And so ends my two hour break.
Cheers...
