Breakfast: oatmeal with brown sugar and fresh banana. Checked on backup tapes and schedules. Made live the academic calendar for 2004-2005. Updated current students news and calendar. Linkchecking. Got reports from Joel on how the laptop didn't behave properly on his outreach trip to Fresno. Put together the RFO for our student lounge WAP. Lunch at Chow with Patrick, Ena, and Melissa. I had a cobb salad. Everyone else got the sandwich special: Hawaiian tuna and fries (Ena, Melissa) or salad (Patrick). About $10 each. Confirmed with Cindy that she had the data she requested from me last week. Updated computing requirements chart for the SCS meeting tomorrow. Updated faculty page with new hires. Coded new stories for the home page, prepped them for meeting with Susie. Prepped Debrah's computer for repartitioning (backup and reinstall PartitionMagic). Met with Susie. Dinner at home with Patrick: basil garlic sausage with four cheese red sauce and yellow bell peppers over fusilli, bread. Watched Hero (2002) on DVD. Despite a lack of logic in some plot lines, it's a very good film. The cinematography is particularly pleasing to watch—a graceful fluidity is present in practically every scene. Go see it! Added ia.imdb.com to my hosts file to get rid of Flash ads on imdb.
