locale.module scope

I'd like to change some of the title text on my drupal site. I've done this in the past by editing the code, but it seems I should be able to do what I want using the locale.module.

For example, in the user block, I see the following:
"Create blog entry" with the title text "Add a new personal blog entry" (visible on rollover)

I would like:
"Create journal entry" with the title text "Add a new entry to your personal journal".

My problem is that the local.module doesn't seem to know about these strings. Is this a configuration issue or something that needs to be changed in the code for a future release?

They should be in there if they are wrapped in the proper t() functions. Search for the strings and try to find them.

Now they are showing up. However it is a slow an tedious process. the mysql queries are returning a time out error when I save changes (although they are completing).

Is there a faster way? Or is it more a matter of optimizing this feature.

Oh, by the way. I think it is an amazing feature How does it hold up with upgrades?
