Jobness and feeling better

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
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.
