She's beautiful - she looks like Ben Carson, only smarter (somewhat lighter skin as well, but the same baby face and placid hand gestures )
Every moment of a life is a horrible tragedy, a slapstick comedy, dark nihilism, golden illumination, or nothing at all; depending on how we write the story we tell ourselves.
Woo hoo... got my first ever real translation assignment. Okay, so it's unpaid, but I've got to start somewhere, right? I can't help feeling delighted to know that somewhere in Japan, English speakers will see my translation and won't be able to take a photo and share on engrish.com. Hehe.
'Start a portfolio to demonstrate your work'.. check!
'Learn correct English grammar and spelling'.. not so check.. ^^
夕方に急なにわか雨は「夕立」と呼ばれるなら、なぜ朝ににわか雨は「朝立ち」と呼ばれないの? ^^If a sudden rain shower in the evening is referred to as an 'evening stand', then why isn't a shower in the morning called 'morning stand'?
Uuugh... I'm bored. I hate having to wait around for an inspector.

Finally unpacked enough that I found my bike gear. Started working on my bike this morning so that I can ride to work today. Turns out my rear brake cable is busted, so...gonna ride to work anyhow, and just try not to tap my brakes. Let's see how this goes!
(Edit: and call the bike shop when they open to see if they have any brake cables I can buy off them
Finally got back from the doctor's office. They were like an hour behind!
3 month check up shows an elevated liver thingy. So I don't have hep C but I might have a fatty liver. And now I have to get an ultrasound. But my doc says it's probably just a fatty liver and to lower my cholesterol like I'm doing, diet, etc. It's only one test that shows elevated levels. All the rest were fine.
But then I told him about my cold like symptoms. I have a viral infection and have cooties. Thankfully I'm off today and tomorrow. But he said add another day. I don't want to start the sicky train at work once again. That totally sucked. And if I go out in public I need to wear a medical mask.
I have to get into a really odd mindset to write my chapters and it takes a long time. I've only written a prologue and chapter 1 and my beta readers like it. I might just have to figure something out because I'm not too fond of it.
"Turn, and look in the mirror. What do you see?" Her own brown eyes stared back at her until she was nothing but a blur.
"I see you. Red lipstick spread perfectly over your lush mouth, brown eyes that hold centuries upon centuries of secrets. A face made to entice even the most celibate of men and women alike. A red dress that sways and moves with your body, making you a temptation like no other."
Thinking about my nephew. He's doing pretty good so far this week. Hope it continues this way. Gotta go to my hand therapy session today. Hope it turns out okay.
