I think I should have called him before I started, though, since 4-color is going to cost relatively the same for duotones + black, which is what I&#8217;m designing, given the short printing run.  Ah well.  But it&#8217;s good to know they can do it in time.<\/p>\n<p>Weekend was lovely.  I ate too much candy yesterday, but other than having to work the day was pleasant.  Got a chance to talk to Jamie at church for a bit, just to see how he and Andrea are doing&#8211;hadn&#8217;t talked to him in a while.<\/p>\n<p>Saturday I went to Carowinds with Jenn and her friend Dave, in honor of our mutual friend Flora&#8217;s birthday.  She had invited a smattering of friends and folks from their church, so we had a sizable group.  I had never been before (I&#8217;ve not been to an amusement park in the US), and three roller coasters I rode were exactly three more than I had ridden before I went (Space Mountain at Disneyworld doesn&#8217;t really count&#8211;it&#8217;s kind of a dinky ride).  I rode the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.carowinds.com\/attractions_rides_featured.jsp?id=1545933\" target=\"_blank\">Borg Assimilator<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.carowinds.com\/attractions_rides_featured.jsp?id=609\" target=\"_blank\">Top Gun<\/a>, and Thunder Road.  I&#8217;ve never been much of a roller coaster fiend in the past, and granted, I did have to remind myself to breathe on a couple of occasions, but overall they were very fun.<\/p>\n<p>Okay, Randi just came by again to check on progress, and it turns out that they want these things <i>hardcover<\/i>.  By Friday.  Real nice.  I hate these people.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just got off the phone with Jim at printing&#8230; Looks like the books are going to be able to be printed Friday, assuming I get him everything by this evening, which WILL happen&#8211;so that&#8217;s a big relief.
