It was pretty interesting when I finally got back to translating after getting back from the road trip, tbh - I think that was the first time in a while I felt genuinely fluent with how easily that one translation flowed out of me. It went a long way towards boosting my confidence in my translations and convinced me to take a bit of...I guess you could call it a risk...in some later translating (put it this way: ancient poetry? Is a bitch. I'm still proud I managed it.) So I want to take advantage of my newfound I Can Do This and the motivation! It is not there! Agh.
