Oatmeal for breakfast. Read a great explanation about forging e-mail on Ken Lucke's stopspam.org called "Reading E-mail Headers." Planned for Debrah's speaker replacement with Dell. Need to do more troubleshooting. Sent out summary of software computer requirements to the SCS group. Lunch with Joel. It was really hot today, so we walked around trying to find a place with air conditioning, but no place did. Everyone had their doors and windows open and few places had shady al fresco dining. We tried at Crepevine, but they take cash only and I thought I had a 20 but I didn't and Joel didn't have cash. We eventually came to L'Avenida where Joel used his credit card for both our meals (my turn to pick). On the way back to work we saw a woman walking a charcoal gray tiny toy poodle—so adorable! It had its upper body shaved back and only the legs had the furry dangles of hair all over. We didn't think until after we went on our way to take a picture—I'd had the camera for no good reason other than to catch a few photos of the area for future use on the Web site to show prospective students life in our community. Placed an order for Adobe software through Susie's budget with her permission. Posted feedback about Exact Choice for Kevin and the SCS group. Installed Winamp updates to 5.03 Lite for everyone. Swapped speakers with Debrah to troubleshoot her staticky noise problem. Also removed and reinstalled her computer's audio drivers. Used the wire stripper in my tools kit for the first time because the old speakers I had plugged in using tinned wires rather than plugs (!) and one of the wires had broken off clean. Stayed somewhat late evaluating password management software. Dinner at home by myself: simple lunchmeat sandwich, side of white corn tortilla chips. Washed dishes.
