OK. I'm bored. Bored with BG games, bored talking religion, bored....

Fljotsdale, ma'am, I can really relate to that: I really should be writing a short essay explaining the concept, the "scientific motivation" and the goal of my final thesis and which I am to present tomorrow in an appointment with one of the potential examiners for my final thesis. Heck, my motivation for that darn thing is that I have to write it to be able to finally complete my university career and my reason for choosing the topic I did was that it was the only at least remotely sensible one I could come up with ! But I am afraid I cannot write anything of the above - as usually the truth is not what is expected here - sigh ! :S

And my sympathies for you too, Kaz, I have to do translations for my father on a regular basis as well - but at least I am getting paid for it.

Originally posted by Kaz: I know the feeling - i did not edit, but translated a text from a colleague of my mother (luckily NOT for free). It was AWFUL: two colons in the same sentence? Seven commas in one sentence? In the end I did not only translate, but also edit the text (it was on behavioural biology or however you translate that) So - my sympathies (for FREE - that must be hard)

Kaz, what on earth is the matter with one, two, three, or even four, five, six, or seven commas in a sentence?

Very funny - the thing is supposed to be readable afterwards . It's still hard reading but it's very interesting. Unfortunately, some of my views of life were permanently damaged I think - you have GOT to be an atheist to write that kind of stuff.

Hey Fljotsdale! If your bored lets argue

[Lady Avalon]

Hi Fljotsdale,

I understand exactly how you feel. I had the same kind of day yesterday. I didn't feel like cleaning the house, which is usually done on Saturday. I didn't feel like doing laundry, although I did manage to get that done.

When I have days like these, I usually take some time for myself, sit down with a good book for a few hours, take a long hot bath in the whirlpool, go for a walk, meditate, sit outside (even though it is hot and humid out there) and watch the birds, especially the little hummingbirds.

Hope you are better today.

------------------

[Fljotsdale]

Thanks, Lady Avalon, and all you other helpful people!

Yes, feeling better today but still not in the mood for the editing, lol! MUST do it tomorrow...

That programme of activities is very tempting, Lady Avalon - I might just go and do some of them today, even though better!

hey if you finish the editing... you'll have free time afterwards

Take off all your clothes and dance naked in the rain! Then see what happens next......

Aaahh.... Fur Cough.

[Fljotsdale]

OK! OK!
No more bitching! I'll go dance naked in the rain... and get arrested...
