I realized this morning that I had screwed up my entries for the 18th and the 19th, so I went back and fixed them. Helped 2 students set up FrontPage 2002 (!) for website building. I've been told Dreamweaver MX 2004 has been on order for the computer lab, so hopefully students will be able to switch to that soon. Prepped changes to the orientation pages for our student orientation directors. Updated the SFTP connection page to include Transit and Captain FTP. (Thanks, Chris!) Attempted to register our Microsoft client access licenses (CALs) as Jacqui instructed (Microsoft Q325869), but I got an error message: "No Terminal Server license server is available in the current domain or workgroup. To connect to another license server, click Action, click Connect, and then type the server name." She forwarded my problem report to Taylor. Prepared for e-mail migration of student organization accounts. Lunch: cheddar cheese burger, half fries, half onion rings. Dessert: orange push-up. Chatted with Teresa. Chatted online with Chris. Worked on HTML e-mail stationery; created 2 additional templates—one for OSACA people, another for the Office of the Dean. Helped Mike L with Outlook Web Access questions. In Outlook Web Access, there appears to be no way to send a message to everyone in your Contacts list. Fortunately, he is still able to get in to his old WebMail account where that task is very simple. Set up a signature for him. Showed him how to specify more than one person on the To line for a forwarded message. Dinner at El Toreador (415-566-2673, 50 W Portal Av) with Patrick: fajitas for him, dos enchiladas pollo for me. It had been a long time since we had been to El Toreador, but not for any particular reason. Patrick wanted Mexican food and our choices for that where we live in the lower middle Sunset are somewhat limited. Burrito Express on Taraval doesn't have table service, and Chevy's at Stonestown does but their food often turns out too spicy for me, so I don't enjoy eating there very much despite all its other better qualities. El Toreador was packed when we went at about 7:30 PM on a Wednesday. I believe our server's name was Hilda, and we found her to be friendly and efficient even though she seemed to disappear on us at the end of the meal. Food is good but not fantastic. There's a lot of colorful crazy crap on the walls and ceilings to look at, such as a collection of individual beer bottles which I realized near the end of our meal were still full of their original beers. Grocery shopping at TJ's. Very tired, but did some work for Corinna. Archived some paper documents to PDF.
