Nov. 17th, 2015 03:33 amthat moment when you realize translating the thing you want to translate will (1) take time and effort you don't have because you're not in high school anymore (2) require three times as long as translating similar things did in high school because you're just that rusty (3) require three times the effort as translating similar things did in high school because you're just not gonna find the original Latin with the helpful macrons.
(I am not sure I have ever translated Latin without macrons. Deucalion and Pyrrha isn't in the Ovid reader from AP Latin, anyway; six or seven other Metamorphoses episodes are, plus seven of the Amores, but those hold no interest at the present moment.)
meh. I'm going back to bed.
