Taxi from Will's place to UC Berkeley. In retrospect, I should have taken the taxi only to the nearest BART station. Breakfast at a cafe on campus: egg and cheese muffin, tater tots: about $6. Higher Education Drupal Summit at BADcamp 2011 at Wheeler Hall. Kevin Miller from Cal State Monterey Bay presented Open Atrium as a Campus Intranet—very impressive. Michael drove Eric and me to MCB for a meeting he called at MCB which included the most famous celebrity in the Drupal community as well as some others at UCSF involved in CMSes and technology decisionmaking and potential partners in the Drupal community. Carmelina's Cafe with Susie and Eric: a late lunch. Rode the UCSF lime shuttle to Parnassus. Took Muni home. Shower then nap. Too exhausted to do anything else. Dinner at home with Patrick: spinach-ricotta ravioli in marinara sauce, roasted squash with onions. Dessert: small coconut tarts from a Chinese bakery. Finished watching Big Trouble in Little China on Netflix DVD with Patrick. That film is so awful I enjoyed it. Reinstalled Flash at home and at work after trying to live without it. Here are a couple of useful things that still use Flash: Hulu, playing video in Flickr, Google Maps Street View, playing messages in Google Voice. Selected my BADcamp schedule for Saturday.
