frustration!

Today was a very frustrating day at the book arts studio. I set the colophon (the block of text that describes the typefaces, paper, and other details about the printing) twice in two different type sizes and discovered it was still too big. This took about four hours. I still don't have a colophon, and I'll need to break down the stuff I've already done, and I just couldn't seem to make it look good. Two hours after class got out, having wasted the previous four hours, I just decided to leave and try to work on it later this week. Possibly Wednesday I'll have the time, if I skip going to the gym.
