1 hr confidence: 
my days are just (long) enough for my job /task Explanation: I think the idea is that "my days are just long enough to do my job (or complete a task) and my job is just enough to fit my days" (so a perfect match between the two) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2010-05-25 22:07:18 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Or, in other words, I have enough time to complete my task and, on the other hand, I have enough work to do, to be engaged with the work during the day |

je vivrai assez longtemps pour accomplir ma tâche, ... Explanation: ...et cette tâche va me prendre toute ma vie. Je pense que « jours » ici veut dire plutôt « (durée de) vie » que littéralement « journées ». |
