Toasted plain bagel and cream cheese. I missed the 8:08 AM bus, and the 8:30 AM bus didn't show up just like yesterday so at 8:35 AM I walked to Taraval and within a few minutes caught an L train. At West Portal, the doors wouldn't open to let people in or out—there was a technical problem and we were delayed about 5 minutes. At Forest Hill the same problem happened but the driver fixed it quicker. I caught a 43 bus to work and it only took me 50 minutes to get to work today. Chatted with Mike W about various SIS issues. Missed my meeting with Bill S, so we rescheduled for later in the day. Linkchecking. Prepared notes for my meeting with Cindy. Bill S and I met—a good, quick meeting. Lunch from the cafeteria: cheddar cheeseburger, half order of onion rings, half order of curly fries, Arizona mandarin orange tea. Tried to decrease James's user profile (which was 34 MB). Archived Internet content about how to reduce user profile sizes. Lots of changes to the PHPM pages for Bill S, sent them out for review. Updated my computer services presentation handout page 1. Performed standard monthly procedures: tarball archiving, WinHTTrack archiving, turn in timesheet. Watched 2 Simpsons episodes: The Secret War of Lisa Simpson and You Only Move Twice. Patrick thought the former was funny enough to save.
