Patrick spent most of today continuing to set up the new place. Every day it feels more like home. He and Sam also made another run to get stuff from the old place. At work, I uninstalled unused applications from Chris's computer while he's on vacation in Australia. I also continued working on the About Our Web Site section. It's turning out larger than I thought, particulary because of the style guide. Dinner at home: spanish rice, Dixie-fried shrimp, french bread with margarine, and corn off the cob. (Almost all our food was either yellow or orange.) We also opened the bottle of Beaujolais-Villages that Norita and George had left for us. We toasted, first to Patrick for setting up the new place so quickly while I worked, and then again to Joel for finding the flyer which advertised our new apartment. I set up the computers in the rack mount box and figured out how we were going to run the telephone wires. We no longer have the yummy cable modem, so I'm using UCSF Remote Access Service to connect with dialup—a painful 3 KB/second (equivalent to a 28.8K modem).
