First day back

The place is virtually unchanged. Rather nice to see everyone, too.

I only have a small window of time to get a lot done, so hopefully I can be more than a placeholder here. Since they know me, they've given me a ton to do, whereas with another temp they would have held off for a bit. :D

That's good. I like being busy.

I was up waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too late last night (hence this stream-of-consciousness post), clinging desperately to my last day of summer vacation.

Oh. And the hairstylist messed up my hair yesterday. For myself, I couldn't be arsed to fix it, but it bugs wildernessguru's fashion sense. So. Back to the hair salon.

Hmm. It's 5:18, and I'm supposed to leave at 5:00.

Guess it's time to go home. *Icarus floats out door in sleep-deprived happy daze*

Call of the Wild... in Spanish!

Are there any Spanish speakers on my friendslist?

Well, if you're there, how would you like to read Call of the Wild in Spanish?

The translation:

Rumania, año Doce

El anciano emergió de la estación ferroviaria mirando alrededor aturdido, sólo deteniéndose cuando un coche negro, pequeño y abollado, casi le pasa por encima. Llevaba bermudas y tirantes floreados, y calcetines deportivos hasta la rodilla debajo de las botas de montaña. Se había colocado un gorro marrón sobre los cabellos plateados que caían sobre su espalda, de modo similar a la barba que le colgaba por delante. Tenía el aspecto de ir a presentarse a un concurso de cantos tiroleses para octogenarios. En sus manos sostenía un bastón nudoso y una gran maleta púrpura, que parecía bastante ligera a juzgar por cómo la apartó del camino del veloz Trabant.

No, I can't read a word of it. But it's supposed to be some quality work there. *waves cheerily* Hope you enjoy it.

ETA: Yes, some of my stuff has been translated, but into Thai and Chinese, not Spanish.
