I'm rather frustrated with my work lately. Translating requires very very intense concentration from part of my brain, but the rest of my brain is left with nothing to do. This unbalance makes it very hard for me to sustain my focus, and I often find my attention wandering as the part of my brain that is not occupied with translating goes off on new and exciting adventures. I know that when I take Dayquil the non-translation part of my brain ends up contentedly floating in happy land, but this isn't the way to get through the day, now is it?
