Usual oatmeal breakfast. Helped Lucia troubleshoot vertical streaks while photocopying with a Brother MFC5440CN. I was surprised how quickly I was able to find the user manual on the web. I sent it to her and said to try pages 11-9 through 11-12, then 11-23 and 11-24. Within a few minutes, she had solved the problem—some ink on the scanner glass removed with window cleaner and a paper towel. Minor Flickr profile updates. Sent Susie the UCSF entry to Wikipedia—we're looking at creating a separate entry for the School of Pharmacy. Made live new news for Susie. Lunch at desk by myself: takeout from the cafeteria: roast turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy, stuffing, cranberry dressing, corn off the cob. Finished first draft of the new supp app PDF and web pages, sent them to James and then all OSACA for review. Security poster research and design. Workstation updates. UPS battery replacement. Reinstalled Lucia's UPS. I discovered today that Codeweavers is coming out with CrossOver for OS X, which is such promising news. I've been so frustrated with the Dell ImageBuilder team that I'm thinking of just not dealing with Dell at all next year, which I'm sure will put some exclamation marks over some people's heads at work. After work, I went to the Castro to check out the shoe sale at De La Sole Footwear. I couldn't find any shoes that would work for me. I got a super veggie burrito at La Tortilla, then went home. Weight training: push-up, leg raise, plank, bridge.
