Morning run: 10 minutes. I stopped using Flock as my default browser. It has some nice features, but I don't blog with a service, I don't post comments on other people's blogs, and I don't use delicious very much. And I couldn't deal with the bookmarks handling, though I'm sure it will improve in the future. I stuck with it for about a week, which was what I had originally intended. Back to Firefox for now. Breakfast: a pear. Helped Cindy with an HTML e-mail template. Answered e-mail usage questions from Peter A. Helped Joel vote for Pat Summitt in some online poll about the top 20 coaches. Executive assistant for the dean pages go live along with an updated org chart. Linkchecking followup with Jeff B. Staff meeting. DMM followup on my print job. City tours followup with student orientation leader AP. Lunch with Joel at Nan King Road Bistro. Researched e-mail address obfuscation on web pages in order to prevent spam. (I believe it's not worthwhile for a huge list of reasons.) Sent UCSF logos to Jeremiah H for Susie. Check-in with Mark B about entering student e-mail addresses. Info day registration form and web pages work for Joel. Created a simple presentation in InDesign for OSACA introductions during Orientation. In the afternoon Joel and I got frozen yogurt from the cafeteria. Reinstalled Spy Sweeper for Ena. PharmAdMIT 2007 installation troubleshooting. Converted a Word document to PDF for Joel because Acrobat was not working properly on his computer. Dinner with Phil and Drew at their place: chicken casserole, side salad with ranch. Afterwards we chatted about favorite films, Myers-Briggs, and other things in the living room. Phil's favorite film is The Exorcist. Drew's favorite film is Stigmata. I said my favorite film was Citizen Kane. I helped them resolve problems with their computer. Home. Late meal: noodle soup. Weight training: tricep kickback, left arm only (it's weaker).
