Usual oatmeal breakfast. Friday's work attempting to repair the Windows side of my Mac Pro was unsuccessful. I began reinstalling Windows, not realizing until later that I needed to reinstall Boot Camp. After I got a working installation, I then realized that Retrospect cannot connect to OS X to write to the Windows volume since it's read only to Retrospect and OS X. I restarted in Boot Camp and was able to do a dirty copy of existing files. I had only backed up documents, not apps, so after that I began reinstalling applications. School holiday party. Listserv maintenance request for Jorge. Continued rebuilding Windows. I learned new restaurant recommendations: L'Osteria Del Forno (415-982-1124, 519 Columbus Ave, San Francisco) and Antica Trattoria (415-928-5797, 2400 Polk St, San Francisco). Dinner at home with Patrick: pork chops.
