Really fast. By the time my email inbox got the &#8216;your book has been sent&#8217; notification it had already arrived in the mail! It looks delectable! There were some problems with sizes on the last 100 pages or so. Fixed that (that&#8217;s why you make a proof after all!). The colors look better this time around. I reckon that&#8217;s because of the difference in scanners I used between this final proof and the first I did about 2 months back to get an idea of the paper, process, etc. Anyhow, it will be available soon.<\/li>\n<li>Worked on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nicknormal.com\/normalblog\/index.php?tag=albatross\">the boat<\/a> yesterday evening. Worked until it started raining. Have to go back tomorrow. Opening this Sunday (reminder: post on blog about this! faduh!!)<\/li>\n<li>I started working part-time this week. And yet still I don&#8217;t seem to have enough time (re-read above two bullet points).

What to say? We&#8217;ve dropped three straight games since, to tie last place with Houston, the other usual top-contender in the NLC. I know we&#8217;ll bounce back but it&#8217;s sad stuff.<\/li>\n<li>I&#8217;m supposed to go to Hungary this summer, but planning takes time.
