Morning run: 15 minutes. Weight training: push up, plank, calf raise. Coded new news story for Susie. Sent Danica a request about one of our students not able to post messages to a listserv. Troubleshot a problem report from a prospective student who couldn't access the home page of our website (but other websites load as expected). After submitting a ticket and Ariel responding very quickly, we determined the problem was in between our connections to the internet. I provided her with our traceroute data and instructed her to contact her ISP which was Yahoo! DSL. More preferred names and e-mail address work. More miscellaneous questions from new students. Assisted student RN with wireless. Assisted student AH with installation of required software. Updated a listserv for Joel. Minor web edit for Joel. Sent Rick a question about how people are supposed to change their IE home page if Spy Sweeper prevents them from doing that. (The setting is grayed out, and the only answer I know: Uninstall Spy Sweeper, change the home page, then reinstall Spy Sweeper.) Troubleshot a door code problem for student WW. More preferred e-mail address work. Emergency laptop and projector assistance for a student group for Chris. Chatted with a student about listservs. No lunch today—I was too busy! Dinner at Pomelo by myself. Lodestar edits. Processed photos. More printer shopping. Weight training: leg lift, crunch, front raise. Late meal: leftovers. Read slashdot.
