chocolatepotNew job is starting off well. I don't want to stay there forever, but since I spend most of the time by myself, self-guiding between various paper tasks, it's reasonably low-stress. Once I get on the computer system there I'll be all set. So far I know the supervisor who trained me, the woman who takes stuff off the printer and mails it all day, and the guy who sits behind me and also has a cool Italian surname.
Had a very mature talk over dinner about paying rent, being an equal adult, etc. and I'm happy about that.
I'm happiest, though, about the fact that I just finished translating the last of Galerie des Modes. *dances* Technically, I finished tranlsating the original text ages ago - the whole latter half of it has been cobbled together from other sources. I have to hope the 1912 reprinters only had the plates and weren't just choosing randomly to make me have to do twice as much work a century later (assuming the MMA does have an original of the last two volumes, which has been suggested to me).
