Read blogs. Learned what sartorial means after having read Off the Cuff. Set Facebook to be more liberal in terms of who can see what. Usual oatmeal breakfast. I forgot to mention that as of May 1 Joel is now the office's admissions director—a big step up for him. We learned last night from Mom Ryan that her sister's husband Domenic passed away peacefully. I am reminded today how much I dislike Google Desktop when I right-clicked on the Outlook 2007 toolbar and found dozens of items identically named "Google Desktop Toolbar." Grrr! Web edits for Danny. In Word 2007, with Track Changes turned on, you can change case using the Change Case command and the changes are not tracked—that's wrong. Dinner with Patrick: turkey parmagiana with fusilli, focaccia roll, Smart Balance Light. Edited a 12-page document for Drew. Watched Castle in the Sky on Netflix DVD with Patrick. Well, we made it partway through and then found an unfixable problem due to a damaged disc. It's the first damaged disc we've received from Netflix. The reporting process was fast and simple. We could have skipped a few minutes of the film, but we chose instead to wait for a replacement disc. We laughed at times at the simplicity of the writing and plot, but the film is entertaining and quite beautifully animated. Today psychobauble was supposed to raid a village or something like that, but it was canceled—how disappointing. Installed VMware Fusion 1.1.2 at home. Archived documents. Installed Apple Software Updates (Java).
