Finished my testing of the waiting list reply form, pushed the changes live, sent it to James for review. Linkchecking. The Source has redesigned its website. Updated Web calendars for current, entering, and prospective students. Dropped off old phones for Eamon. Started going through other junk in my office of which I need to get rid. Spoke with Hubert because an order arrived from CDW-G which wasn't the right part—they sent me an extra power injector instead of a dipole antenna for our wireless access point which had arrived yesterday (or was it Thursday?). Lunch with Joel at You See Sushi. For the first time I had Meal C, which is what Joel usually gets. It's a lot more than I'm used to with Meal A or B which is all sushi. Meal C is teriyaki chicken, side salad, 3 pieces of California roll, ginger, wasabi, rice. I ate just about everything and later felt like it was too much. Updated the associate deans page for Susie. Backed up Ena's computer in preparation for a clean install of Windows XP. Helped Chris adjust the computer in the student lounge—the joint where the keyboard tray attaches to the arm had been loosening up. We tightened it and it seems fine now. Inspected the same computer to find a resolution to the problem of the power adapter brick just hanging loose on the floor. The wall-mounted-computer setup is all clean except for this power brick from the monitor lying on the floor, so I'm gonna find a way to secure it to the wall and make it more aesthetically pleasing. Ensured Office Updates were installed for Cindy, Ena, Debrah, Melissa, and myself. Set up a shortcut for Cindy to one of our old databases. Placed 2 orders for computer supplies. Dinner at home with Patrick: boneless sage pork chops, red potatoes, asparagus, garlic batard. Tried shopping online for clothes but couldn't find things I wanted in my size. Chatted with Travis on IM. Coded the drama piece, sent it to Patrick for review.
