Woke up at 4:30 AM, couldn't go back to sleep. Finally fell asleep again at 6:30 AM. Woke up again around 8:30 AM. Fruit smoothie for breakfast. Dealt with student account problems. Made live PHPM pages for Kristina, Bill S, and Tom K. Worked on Chris's laptop: Windows and Office Updates, Updated Firefox to 1.0 PR. Took a break somewhere in the middle of the day and had a lime popsicle with Kristina in Saunders Court. Showed Chris the "Add a keyword for this search" feature in Firefox. Jake B came to the office and had me look at his laptop. His computer was very peculiar. It would hang hard every time a PDF was opened either in or not in a web browser. Problem still happened even though we disabled everything in Startup Manager. He had already uninstalled and reinstalled Acrobat. No viruses. He eventually decided to reformat, so I set him up with instructions and he'll give that a try maybe this weekend. Hazel stopped by and wiped the OmniLock brain and reprogrammed the whole thing. Dinner at home: leftover pizza. Went to bed early—very sleepy. Joel wore an outstandingly classy suit today. I won't even try to describe it further. (Or maybe this was yesterday—I can't remember now.)
