Weight training: pec crawl. Breakfast at home: organic oatmeal with fresh, diced pink lady apple; cinnamon; California sage honey; nonfat milk. Rode my bike to work. Backed up the website to portable hard drives. Linkchecking. Listserv management. Submitted a ticket to resolve a problem in which David's info appeared in the GAL twice. Began setting up David's laptop: installed Firefox, Prey, KeePassX, Apple Software Updates, Office 2011, Office Updates, PGP Desktop, Whole Disk Encryption (WDE). Some students came by with bake sale items, so I bought an apple turnover and a cookie and ate them. Set up Chris W as a trusted contact with our VPS provider. IRC upgrades work: document review. Later I had lunch: Panda Express: panda bowl with chow mein and honey walnut shrimp. My fortune: An attractive visitor will bring joy to your home. Calendar management. Eric and I took the gray shuttle to Mission Bay then the lilac shuttle to Minnesota Street. John K organized the first Drupal users meeting which took place today at 654 Minnesota Street. It was a huge success in terms of attendance—about 40 people. Carl U talked about his experiences with Aegir and general discussion followed. Afterwards I chatted briefly with Richard T and Karen G. Some took off for a drink at a nearby bar, but after taking a few quick photos of the building's exterior I had to get back to Parnassus. Along the way I chatted with Alvin H. Lilac shuttle back to Mission Bay, then gray shuttle back to Parnassus. Did a few more things at my desk. 43 items in my inbox—very sad. Rode my bike home. Dinner at home with Will: bean thread noodle soup with vegetables and tofu. Afterwards we continued watching 2001: A Space Odyssey but did not finish.
