Joe's Os. Staff meeting. Helped Cindy and James with problems using a web-based teleconference. Our browser passed the preflight check, but still wouldn't work properly. After about a 20-minute call to their support line, we were back in business. They walked me through additional steps which weren't part of the misleading preflight check. Viewed James's slideshow of photos from his last trip to Europe (London, Amsterdam, Brugge). Pulled photos off the camera for Joel. Helped a student with laptop problems. Wrote a shell script to fix a problem with symlinks that Julie and I had discovered. I discovered today that the office mice have invaded my desk drawer. I had stored some graham crackers in a sealed ziploc bag, but they had chewed through the plastic pretty easily. I cleaned out my drawer. Ugh! Prepared for storing some security keys offsite. Lunch: dos tacos from the cafeteria. Snack: a Pink Lady apple. Helped Chris fix synching between Palm and desktop computer—the power cable to the cradle had gotten unplugged somehow. Dinner at home with Patrick: crab cakes, corn on the cob, mac and cheese with basil and bacon. Worked on the frankfarm.org photos page. Watched Simpsons.
