Weight training: weighted leg lift, bench dip. Did some gathering of things we use infrequently so as to make more space. Many of these are gifts we have received from others, and our need for space to store the things we use more frequently outweighs our desire to keep things unnecessarily because it was a gift. In some cases, we're removing an infrequently used gift to make way for a newer gift from the same person. Since my early 20s I have preferred not receiving gifts during times when people might traditionally give me gifts, so if you're reading this and wondering what to get me, it's nothing. Breakfast at home: cinnamon-raisin granola with soy milk and sliced banana, 8 ounces of vegetable juice. Rode Muni to work. Timesheet activities. Purchased a book called The Where, the Why, and the How. Calendar management. Supp app work in Drupal: reported issues. Web edit for Cindy: course waivers and subs. Followup with student NN about account problem. Linkchecking, kiosk work. Supp app: an import. Followup with Brad E about preferred first name change. Chatted with Cindy about ordering a few new computers. Apple opened ordering for the new iMac, so I sent a reminder to myself to buy for home this weekend. Spent a lot of time speccing new hardware purchases for Cindy and Frances. JACS configurations don't include mice or keyboards or monitors, so I have to research all of those separately. Web updates for PLS: conferences. Sent Kevin L edits for the Desai Lab website. Prepped web updates for Susie: strategic plan milestones. Followup with Cindy, Tina, Michael, and Rodney about IRC planning next steps. Followup with Shirin about Student Inside Guide and posting to the kiosk. Chatted with Susie about a request from Jaime K about branding and e-learning. Rode Muni to Church Street. Walked to Church Street Station. Rode Muni to the Castro. Met Will and Ace at Toad Hall. Dinner at Slider Bar with Will. Will's Tom is coming to visit in a few weeks. Encountered David N, said hello. Will went home. Met with David N at Lookout. Met David's friend Abe. We went to 440. Good 80s music. Met another friend of David's named Jason. Rode Muni home.
