Joel made cupcakes today which, as usual, were deliciously perfect with their green frosting and green sugar sprinkles. On top of that, we were treated to holiday bags of candy. What a joy! Met with Susie about Web projects. Uploaded the Spring 2002 issue of Alumni Voice. Modified a ring logo for Cindy. Added abbr tags for a bunch of pages under /contactus/. Updated employer statements for Joel. Got my hands all dirty when I installed a used hard drive into the office server. Did it without much notice because everyone suddenly left the office at 5:00 PM and James and Chris weren't in so I didn't have to worry about booting them off. It was almost fun. The install went smoothly though I had to steal an IDE ribbon cable from an old computer in the storage closet and fortunately the new drive letter didn't seem to screw up any shares—something I was worried about because Windows sometimes seems to just arbitrarily choose new drive letters when you install a new drive. I called Tina at 9:29 PM on her cellphone. She says she's in Las Vegas for a pastry competition and was with some friends that just happened to ran into (I think)—no one I knew. "We're being very bad tonight." Patrick had hiccups that wouldn't stop, so I made dinner: macaroni and cheese, gardenburgers on pugliese rolls. Ran errands at Walgreen's. Worked on Lodestar.
