Breakfast at the cafeteria: oatmeal with raisins and brown sugar, bagel with green (chive?) cream cheese. Sent Cindy the job description I had been working on—we're planning to hire a web developer who will help out with Dean's Office web activities part time and the other part time will be working on web work for a grant that some of our faculty have secured. Linkchecking. Fixed a problem with the course schedule change form for 2007. Pushed poster web page changes live (Cindy). Calendar and news web updates. Law review update for Cindy. Uploaded files for Carol. Today I received notice that I am one of several recipients of the 2007 Chancellor's Award for Exceptional University Service. Cindy was very excited to receive the news, and within minutes I received a message from Dean Koda-Kimble congratulating me. It's indeed quite an honor to have been selected, and the award is several thousand dollars—I forget exactly how much. Helped student KL install Sophos and other computer updates. Lunch: piccatta chicken, mixed vegetables, dinner roll and Promise spread from the cafeteria. Key cabinet shopping. Acrobat 6 uninstall and Acrobat 8 install for Cindy. IE7 install for Cindy and the old laptop. Helped Lucia with printing in Outlook 2003. Helped student CM with Lexi-Comp. (Referred to Rodney, actually.) Labelled various things with the labeller. Installed Nero on the server. Set up the new hard drive in BIOS. Used Disk Management to mount and format the new hard drive. Home. Washed dishes, tidied. Patrick was late getting home. He was helping Aaron and Apphia move a mattress. Dinner at home with Patrick: frozen pizza. Prepared our travel itinerary.
