Awoke around 3:00 AM, successfully returned to sleep within an hour. Usual granola breakfast. Restored Patrick's network backup script. I don't recall ever before having rendered someone speechless with my entrance to a room, but it happened today at the SCWG meeting I think because this committee normally doesn't see me in a suit. A very nice compliment. SCWG meeting - wireless. Installed Apple OS 10.5.5 at work. Web edits: pathway declaration calendar for Carol. Linkchecking. Gave my computer services presentation. Skits with the orientation counselors. Lunch with Joel at Pasquale's: we shared a small salad and a house special pizza. Linkchecking. Updated my project list. More archiving data to DVD. Snack: an orange. Followup with student MM about mailbox too full. Email migration for ST. Email forwarding question from student JY. Listserv maintenance. Public affairs Quicktime movies are no longer available, so I stopped linking to them. Cardkey followup for student MK. Still waiting to hear from OAAIS (JK, KB) about a replacement for ph.ucsf.edu. Small web edit for Joel: admissions catalogs. Reported a problem to the community forum of YouTube in which a video plays as expected in certain browser-platform combinations but not in others. The error message in the problem browsers is "We're sorry, this video is no longer available." ID card legal name change issues. 13 items in my inbox! Updated the PharmD calendar with pathway deadlines. 11 items in my inbox! To home. Dinner at home with Patrick: pig meatloaf, steamed green beans, garlic bread. Rewatched Episode 3 of Heroes on Netflix DVD. In the past few days I've been piecing my journal together from the many bits of paper where I wrote down entries by hand while my computer was in the repair shop. Some got written on the back of my Seattle itinerary, some got written in my paper journal that I use to record meetings and other notes for work, and some got written on random scraps of paper that were lying around. Installed Apple OS 10.5.5 at home.
