Breakfast: 2 nectarines, 2 pieces of toast with margarine. 8:30 AM bus 66 did not show up. Today I took the stairs up to the 9th floor where I work since I took the bus up from 9th and Judah. When I entered the hallway to my floor, I almost hurt myself because an Ethernet cable was crossing the closed doorway on the other side. Fortunately, someone was in the hallway at the same place and time and warned me—it was just enough. The cable was lodged on the door handle about 4 feet off the ground. No construction workers were around, but there was a ladder nearby and lots of ceiling tiles exposed the ceiling innards as has been the case for the past month or so. When I got to my desk, I created very polite sign asking the construction team to not permit cables to cross doorways without blocking off the doorways first. I printed it twice, then returned to the hazard site and posted one sign on each side of the doorway. Continued setup for our Exchange delegate to "automatically accept" meeting requests. It seems to work—meeting requests are now "automatically accepted" in only a few seconds. Corrected some listservs for Cindy. Defragged another hard drive on the problematic server. Lunch in the workroom with Joel and Ena—we all had brought our lunch today. Set up the laptop for James for a supplemental application workshop. Created and deployed a new Microsoft Word template for the office. Sorted through calendar migration details with Cindy. I collected all the post-it notes on which I jotted down notes from the problem with the computer lab server from Wednesday. Here they are: cannot update your roaming profile, Windows cannot find the local profile, lsass.exe 5.2.3790.0, offset 0000744e, Windows cannot locate the server copy of your roaming profile, Symantec Ghost Configuration Server: 08001 [Sybase][ODBC Driver][Adaptive Server Anywhere]Unable to connect to database server: Database server not running. OK, LSA Shell encountered a problem and needed to close, 1073740972 lsass.exe, MSBlast, Service Control Manager: Windows could not be started as configured. A previous working configuration was used instead. OK. I discovered that Chris's laptop will sync if Treo is connected directly to the laptop's usb port but not to a usb port on the docking station. The laptop also seems to no longer have a bluetooth radio. I'll have to mention these issues to Tito when he arrives on Monday.
