Fuck fuck fuck.

The Idiot!Landlord cashed two cheques at once again. I'm overdrawn and thus broke until my next (and last) payment gets here. After that, I'll be completely broke.

I have work piling up that I'm not even sure I can do. I feel like I don't know a damned thing anymore. My brain has somehow leaked all the information it ever contained about translation. Every sentence I write sounds stilted and wrong, and grammatically incorrect to boot. *beats head against wall*

Fuck fuck fuck fuck.

Fuckety fucking fuck.

That's all I have to say about that.

If there's anything that you'd like me to cast my eyes over for infelicities, I'd be happy to help.

Do you speak impeccable French, dahlink? How familiar are you with technical terms of political economy and free trade agreements in French?

It's deadly dull, but once I get a little bit more stuff done, and you want to, I probably wouldn't mind an outside opinion.

This person's first language is Spanish, but they've written the text in English, and I have to put it in French. :P

Oh poo, my French is abysmal. In English I could do it, but... *sigh* see, I thought you were translating into English, not from.

The spirit is willing, but the Francophony is weak :(

Nope, sorry. :)

I think I'd be less panicky about it if I were translating into English anyway. French is so bloody tricky on some levels. :P

The thought is appreciated, anyway. :)
