First day back at work after being sick for so long. Sam gave me a ride to work because the 8:30 AM bus arrived at 8:25 AM and didn't stop. Argh! Muni is so frustrating! Sam also left us with some Ferraro-Rocher chocolates. I got a zillion things done. Chatted with Samsung technical support about Joel's monitor. Did more tests on it and discovered that it's probably now the graphics card that's bad since it won't even work with a CRT monitor using the VGA adapter. Met with Susie about Web stuff. Filled out my timesheet. Completed HIPAA 101 training and signed the form Cindy needed. Resolved problems that James had printing multiple e-mails from Eudora 5.0. (We upgraded him to 5.1.1.) Changed passwords for Michael's accounts. Migrated admissions mail from Michael's computer to James's. Ensured that everyone in the office was upgraded to Build 0008 of PharmAdMIT. Lunch by myself: Subway sandwich at desk with Sun Chips and pink lemonade. Talked with Mark Bering at UCSF ITS customer support about why it seems mail.ucsf.edu is acting as a POP server (it was a configuration error and should be fixed tonight). Made small Web edits for Joel. Fixed Ena's computer so that James could work on Excel and Word documents on it. Brought home CD-RW disks that we had ordered awhile back and I had delivered to the office. Dinner at home with Patrick: lentils and rice with cherry tomatoes and cherry sausage. The sausage turned out too spicy for me to eat even though the meat man at Tower Market told Patrick that it wasn't spicy at all. Liar! Finished my tax documents. Took care of bills. Tina left us a message on the answering machine while we were gone. She's in Portland, Oregon for a conference. She found a beautiful box of 36 petits fours for $30 at Sur La Table, which is a much better deal than 12 for $40 at Harry and David.
