Morning run: 5 minutes. Usual oatmeal breakfast. Student computing committee. Rob is back! Hooray! This is also Ian's last meeting—he retires at the end of the month. Wah! Posted new draft schedules for Lucia. Did lots of backup solution research. Reviewed web code for Jayson J and told him that I thought he was a top-notch web coder. Dinner at Thai Chef on 18th with Patrick and Mom Ryan. Mom Ryan had recently returned from a trip to New Orleans and she showed us photos of Tommy, Kerry, and her and also of the current conditions of the Lower Ninth Ward which still has many ruined homes and cars which haven't been cleared away yet. "It's a ghost town," she said. She also gave me and Patrick a copy of Prejean's Cookbook which has a lot of Cajun recipes from the owners of a popular Cajun restaurant in Lafayette.
