The best thing about finishing a batch of Lucky Star extras (of which only one remains to be timed, yay!) is that it makes normal subtitling work seem tremendously easy by comparison. I blew straight through a volume of Ghost Slayers Ayashi this week, and it didn't even feel like work. It helps that the show was transitioning from "let's do a bunch of vignettes focusing on one of the characters" to "oh crap, they've cancelled half our projected run, we'd better make with the plot!" Unlike the last time I saw a show like that, the terrible FF:U, Ayashi actually had enough episodes to get its ending together (and got a few OAV episodes after, heh.)

I'm in a pretty good mood. The day job has been slow, giving me lots of time to get these subtitles done (which is good, so long as they are followed by yet more subtitles). I've got a Vita figure that should be arriving any day now. Things are looking up for some fellow ADV-refugee friends from Houston, who should be moving to Dallas shortly (which, I suppose, will obligate me to do some heavy lifting... but I could probably use the exercise.) The Warcraft expansion comes out next month, which leaves me enough time to clear out all my current work beforehand; and if I obtain more work, well, I've obtained more work! ;p
