I'll keep looking out for interesting perspectives to translate. The world of Japanese blogs is really immense... hard to follow what's going on. But well worth the effort. Hi Terri,

Thanks so much for the encouragement! I’ll keep looking out for interesting perspectives to translate. The world of Japanese blogs is really immense… hard to follow what’s going on. But well worth the effort.

And thanks also for that correction, that actually makes more sense. I actually ran it by a Japanese-speaker who also couldn't quite figure it out. But now that I think about it, "curse" makes more sense. epmason: Thanks very much for your comment, and glad to hear that you like the translations!!

Has nothing to do with the content (the translation of which is great, by the way) but as you made a special note I thought I would offer my interpretation. Keep up the blog translations. They're really neat! Very, very minor note but related to your desired profession:
