Breakfast: a peanut butter snack bar and a glass of orange juice. Supp app work. Website updates. Updated current students news. I met with James about supp app and web page updates. Lunch: turkey, mashed potatoes, gravy, stuffing, cranberries, corn off the cob. Computer Support Coordinator meeting—the discussion today seemed livelier than usual regarding a number of sensitive issues regarding e-mail services provided by ITS. Susie approved the update from the dean, so it went live. James approved web page updates, so those went live, too. Approved listserv sign-up instructions for Marie. Chatted online with BK and Andy. Today on the UCSF GLBT mailing list people discussed quite passionately whether we should be supporting Kraft for supporting the 2006 Gay Games or whether we should be questioning why the Gay Games is accepting money from a child corporation of Altria, the parent of the various Philip Morris companies which produce cancer-causing tobacco products. The call to action came because someone had found out that Kraft was getting a lot of negative feedback spurred by the American "Family" Association (my quotes). What do you think? Home. Did some car maintenance, pulled some weeds in the entry, fixed some loose screws and nails on our front gate. Dinner at home by myself: fruit smoothie (banana, cherry, apple juice), leftovers from Xiao Loong and Nan King Road Bistro. I think it was yesterday Joel and I went to NKRB for lunch. Did dishes and cleaned in the kitchen. Caught up on e-mail and blogs. Archived a user manual for a Walgreens heating pad we bought recently.
