I've been in way over my head with work (I've just arrived) and have had little time to actually do any translations for Neil Gaiman's blog, not to mention that he's writing a ton to make up for the weeks that he's been touring (GD that man writes forever and with weird analogies and grammar that is a real bitch to translate into Hebrew. Thank the Earth for[livejournal.com profile] morin who edits my probably horrendous mistakes, if you can read Hebrew go here for Neil's blog).

I had a project that I let drag, which is gave me a hard time last week, because I really wasn't handling it, due to agreements signed upon, I can't talk about what I work on when it comes to projects, but it was large! I mean a monstrosity and it still isn't over. I had a ten hour day yesterday just so I could clean up the effing PP Presentation and today I have a fifty page Word Document to go over edit and fix up because some idiot did it badly the first time.
But I get paid overtime and bonus hours for the time I give in for the project so I'm not worried financially.

My Boss is a really cool woman, she's kind of the epitome of the smart business woman, I mean it looks like she has it all - a house in a very up-scale suburban town close to J-M, a family, a business of her own and someone to make phone calls for her (which is a large part of what I do).
And all the people here are excellent, they're all really happy to have someone to their admin for them and just help them out with the little thins that would otherwise be a waste of time for them.

Plus Mummy made me a really cool veggie pie with two kinds of cheese, broccoli, peas and corn... Mummy is a good mother.

V and Justice

V: Ah, I was forgetting that we are not properly introduced. I do not have a name. You can call me V. Madam Justice...this is V. V... this is Madam Justice. hello, Madam Justice.

Justice: Good evening, V.

V: There. Now we know each other. Actually, I've been a fan of yours for quite some time. Oh, I know what you're thinking...

Justice: The poor boy has a crush on me...an adolescent fatuation.

V: I beg your pardon, Madam. It isn't like that at all. I've long admired you...albeit only from a distance. I used to stare at you from the streets below when I was a child. I'd say to my father, "Who is that lady?" And he'd say "That's Madam Justice." And I'd say "Isn't she pretty."

V: Please don't think it was merely physical. I know you're not that sort of girl. No, I loved you as a person. As an ideal.

Justice: What? V! For shame! You have betrayed me for some harlot, some vain and pouting hussy with painted lips and a knowing smile!

V: I, Madam? I beg to differ! It was your infidelity that drove me to her arms!

V: Ah-ha! That surprised you, didn't it? You thought I didn't know about your little fling. But I do. I know everything! Frankly, I wasn't surprised when I found out. You always did have an eye for a man in uniform.

Justice: Uniform? Why I'm sure I don't know what you're talking about. It was always you, V. You were the only one...

V: Liar! Slut! Whore! Deny that you let him have his way with you, him with his armbands and jackboots!

V: Well? Cat got your tongue? I though as much.

V: Very well. So you stand revealed at last. you are no longer my justice. You are his justice now. You have bedded another.

Justice: Sob! Choke! Wh-who is she, V? What is her name?

V: Her name is Anarchy. And she has taught me more as a mistress than you ever did! She has taught me that justice is meaningless without freedom. She is honest. She makes no promises and breaks none. Unlike you, Jezebel. I used to wonder why you could never look me in the eye. Now I know. So good bye, dear lady. I would be saddened by our parting even now, save that you are no longer the woman I once loved.

*KABOOM!*

-"V for Vendetta"
