After a short break, I got some more work in this week. Last night I finished translating 112 summaries for these porno anime I've been working on, and I've been given 10 more of the videos to translate (with the promise of 10 more per month for at least another two or three months).

The other day I was inputting the new totals on our credit cards after the recent payments I'd made and was excited to see that it's now under $15,000 total (compared to over $20,000 when I started on these videos two months ago). If we hadn't had to buy out the car loan earlier this year it would be $6000 less than that, but oh well. If I can keep paying down the cards at this rate, we may be nearly debt-free by Christmas. It's almost impossible to think of, because we've been crushed under this debt for so long, unable to do more than make minimum payments (and when we did pay larger chunks, inevitably something would come along to put it back up again). It's even more amazing to think we've been able to pay off so much while Bruce is unemployed. What a difference being paid a decent wage makes!

Today we have to go to Best Buy to return the mouse Bruce got, as he doesn't like it. ;_; We'll probably go to Fry's, too, or maybe tomorrow, and see if we can get the one we were going to buy last weekend. I think the one he was going to get was on sale then, though, so now it may not be. I really, really wish they still made his old mouse! The stupid thing is, they do, only it's now Windows-only. *headdesk* We've looked on Amazon and eBay for the old Mac-compatible version, but it's always incredibly expensive (I guess other people loved it, too), or if we find it for a decent price it's in Hong Kong and shipping doubles the price.

I have an offer up on livelongnmarry here. 2000+ words in a fandom of your choice. Could be a new idea you give me, or I could finish a WiP, or write one of the numerous ideas I've talked about here on my journal before. Bidding starts at $20.

telesilla's post just reminded me. All the Match fics are posted now (though I'm still on day 8 (of 25) of reading *headdesk*), and one of the Away Team fics is mine. Unfortunately they don't seem to be tagged by team, so I can't just link to the Away ones. I find the easiest way to look through them is using the calendar view, so here's June and here's July.

I'll write a drabble for whoever guesses correctly (your choice of fandom, characters, and prompt). Comments are screened.
