Call Me a Dreamer

This morning I worked on some bookmarks advertising TusCon *. I had created the original bookmark file several weeks ago, using some artwork that one of the members (or someone on the concomm? I've never seen a list of who's who), but had a very spacey moment and put the date as 2006, instead of 2009. When my error was pointed out to me, I went back and fixed the error, but ran into technical difficulties having to do with the sizing of the file (important, because the bookmarks were designed to be 2-sided). Eventually there were interruptions, excitements, work on other projects, and more spaciness on my part, and I never got the files finalized and uploaded to the work area. So, before heading for the TFoB, I sat down and threw myself at the files, got the files appropriately sized, fixed some printer alignment issues (Why doesn't the user guide for my printer include any information about forced margins, not even in the troubleshooting section?) and printed out pages that might conceivably be copied onto heavier stock, should the concomm wish to distribute the bookmarks to passersby.

Just in case it's not obvious, I will state that I feel extremely bad about my, as yet, unkept commitments.
