Uinu, uinu norppani

Ulkomaalaiset ystäväni ovat pyytäneet käännöksiä sarjiksistani, joten kokeilen nyt ympätä mukaan enkunkieliset käännökset. Anteeksi, jos ne häiritsevät lukemista. En oikein tiedä, miten ne olisi fiksuinta sijoitella.

In English: Panel 1: Having a coffee with Tuukka:
Me: I've been sleeping really badly lately. I have really hard time falling asleep.
Tuukka: Hmm...
Panel 2: Tuukka: You should try counting sheep!
Me: What a cliché.
Panel 3: Tuukka: Okay, you should count something that you like. Try counting the Saimaa ringed seals!
The seal: Well hello there!
Me: Oh no!
Panel 1: Me: You can only count the Saimaa ringed seals up to 300! And when I recall how endangered they are I just get really sad and anxious!!
Seals: The climate change... the fishermen's nets... We're going to die...
Panel 2: Tuukka: Well that doesn't really help you to sleep then. Hmm... you could try counting Pokemons!
Panel 3: Me: But then I can't stop thinking how fucked up it is that there's even more Pokemons than ringed seals in the world!
Tuukka: You're beyond help. Probably the only chance you could fall asleep is if you'd be knocked unconscious.

*Note for non-Finns: The Saimaa ringed seal is one of the most endangered seal species in the world. The population is slightly more than 300. They can only be found in Lake Saimaa in Finland.*
