Weight training: dumbbell curl. Breakfast at home: granola with fresh raspberries and 2% milk. Rode Muni to work. Linkchecking, kiosk work. Followup with student TH about ChemDraw. Followup on a new resource account that ITS resolved incorrectly—they created an email address different than I had requested (and didn't say why). Chatted briefly with Mike S about WeID—a very unhelpful and unpleasant experience. More self study web page setup for Joe C. Reported to ITS a same name issue for a student. Chatted with Lisa in person and over email about Jawbone Up. Made edits to "Comparison of online community solutions at UCSF" following feedback from Orlando. Responded to a name change request. I think this is the first name change request I have ever denied. Followup with Susie about bios: first-person or third-person? first name or first+last or title+last? faculty member example? Free lunch from orientation activities: burrito and tortilla chips. Usability testing of the new directory website with Beth. Lots of listserv work. Paul's birthday party at Pisco Lounge. Met or encountered irene cory gino stephanie joyce agnes anatalio john jeff david m karl shawn cristiano bart matthew and probably a few others that I can't recall. Many tasty appetizers. Only one bartender, so drink service was very slow. Pisco sours were on special for $5 (instead of $9). I had a loco-ipirinha and something that Phil got me. Late dinner at Chow with Paul, Cory, Karl, Agnes, Anatalio, Bart, Matthew and probably a few others that I can't recall. I ate a summer corn pizza which I liked except that the corn fell everywhere and so it was a bit messy to eat. Walked with Cory and Karl to the Edge for musical mondays night but changed my mind at Castro and Market because my train happened to be arriving soon. Rode Muni L home.
