Finished my review of the resumes. Lunch at my desk by myself: leftovers from last night. Made changes to PDFs for Joel. Listened to James's description of PharmAdMIT problems on Ena's computer. Defragged Cindy's computer. Dinner at Fuzio with Patrick: He got gemelli, I got Chinese BBQ pork with noodles. Dessert at Ben and Jerry's: I got Coffee Coffee Buzz Buzz Buzz. Patrick got something chocolate with nuts. Went to The Edge because Randy Williams had told us earlier in the day that our friend/acquaintance Tucker whom we met at Jamie's parties was performing in Pride Idol, a local competition similar to American Idol, and he was going to show up. The thing was supposed to start at 8:00 PM, and we had arrived at 7:55. But it didn't really get started until 9:15 or so—we got to see 2 or 3 acts before we had to leave. Tucker was 7th out of 11 contestants. Oh, well. Brian and Jack were there, too, and we got to meet Che and someone else whose name I forgot—friends of Randy's. The new printer is still acting a little weird—still shows "Scanner error" and a red light sometimes which goes away if we reboot the thing (off then on again). Also, it seems to print successfully even when the scanner error message appears. However, when there's no error message things are great—much faster than our old Lexmark 5700 and ScanJet 5pse. The Epson CX5200 is indeed a tad noisy when the paper first gets fed into it, but aside from that it's very quiet to me.
