Woke up at 2:00 AM, couldn't sleep and after an hour got out of bed and made some mac and cheese, did computer updates. Met with Chris, Cindy, and Susie about a possible new position whose responsibilities might offload some work that Rodney and I are currently doing. Lunch with Joel and Ena at Nan King Road Bistro. Worked on the entering students branch and made James's offer reply forms live. Helped Mike Lemont with password problems. Did more research for finding a AGP DVI low profile graphics card for Joel. Dinner with Patrick, Brian, Kelly, Nico, and Simma at Maykadeh, a Persian restaurant (415-362-8286, 470 Green near Grant). Simma, an Iranian woman and childhood friend of Nico, was given carte blanche for our order. We can't remember all the names of the food we had. One was pomegranate chicken. Another was filet mignon slices atop a bed of Basmati rice. The food was all very delicious.
