Discovered a vole outside our back door. Rode Uber Pool to UCSF Laurel Heights. Along the way I continued studying Spanish on Duolingo. Breakfast: one sliced apple. Sprint standup. Letterhead builds. Escalated my spam problems with help from Kyle in IT. PharmD sitemap work and followup from the meeting with Cindy. Lunch at Artesano: pulled chicken sandwich with fries, water. Succeeded in setting up redirects for fdatransportal with Eric's help. We had to dig through the httpd.conf file to find a line that needed commenting out. Did some cleanup on our servint VPS: backing up then deleting unused databases, then deleting some unused domains. Rode Uber Pool to the Sunset. Dinner at Sunset Reservoir Brewing Company with Patrick: industry standard for Patrick, golden mule for me. We shared: caesar salad, mac and cheese, fried chicken with cole slaw. $65.07 before a $12 tip. Patrick had returned the vole to the forest this morning. We walked home. Troubleshot CrashPlan problems on Patrick's computer. In the process I found that my own local CrashPlan backups had not been working but I received no notice of it. Security check: updating Flash and Shockwave where needed. Spent about an hour on online chat with Bluehost. They had signed me up for a service called SiteLock without my permission. The feedback I left after the chat ended was: "very long wait time, verify by asking for part of my account password is very poor security practice, neither of my issues was resolved, had to ask three times for a reference ID for the chat before finally receiving it".
