Weight training: tried Mark Lauren's pec flies but they were too hard for me to keep my arms completely straight. Advanced hello darlings, pec crawl, inverse push ups. I realize today that the arch yoga pose I can easily do is what Mark Lauren calls an inverse push up. Breakfast at home: fat free cottage cheese, 2 faux blueberry muffins. Rode my bike to work. Began computer troubleshooting for student HL, spent time on it on and off all day. Linkchecking. Timesheet activities. Management activities. Restored the 2011-2012 academic calendar for Cindy. Listserv management. Online payment for PID followup. Snack: one Chips Ahoy chocolate chip cookie. Password retrieval for 2 OSACA accounts. Calendar management. Lunch #1: leftover noodle soup with tofu and veggies. Snack: two blood oranges. Sent David K feedback on the draft of the new UCSF banner (he calls it global navigation). Afternoon meal from the cafeteria: veggie burger and fries, one Chips Ahoy chocolate chip cookie. Eric D sent word that The Archive is now all migrated—w00t! Previously we had it on a very old Mac Mini running in an overhead bin at his desk. Now we're using virtual hosting provided by ITS. Eric has to do more work than we do with ServInt and the setup wasn't easy, but we're much better off than we were before. Chatted briefly over email with Carl U about web typography and his use of @font-face for qb3.org—it's pretty nice. Did some supp app Drupal work. Ordered books for David. About 33 items in my inbox. Down from 50 or so Friday and Monday. Rode my bike home. Snack: leftover mashed potatoes with salt and pepper. Weight training: door pull ups. Snack: fat free cottage cheese, 1 faux blueberry muffin, nonfat milk. Ever since I got my bike and started riding it regularly between work and home I had suspected that the trip computer that I bought was feeding me incorrect data since my 16-inch wheels were much smaller than regular bike wheels. However, after drawing my routes in Google Maps which measures the distances, I found that it matches pretty much exactly what Google says. I'm impressed!
