Usual oatmeal breakfast. Management activities. Got a photo of 3rd and Parnassus for Lucia's disaster plan. Submitted WeID spreadsheet to TBS. Lexi-Comp renewal. Closed a workshop reg for Scott E. Called the DMV—they haven't sent me my new tabs even though they cashed my check a month ago—lame. Also: they can't handle requests via web or Twitter—lame. The person who answer my first call after 10 minutes on hold hung up on me after 1 second because I didn't pick up from speakerphone quickly enough. The DMV is awful. Called sonicnet with questions about Fusion. Do I need a new modem? (Yes—$50.) How long does the switchover take? (7 to 10 days.) Is there downtime? (No. After Fusion is live, you cancel the old DSL.) Also: someone will need to come to our home to "run a tri-pair." Calendar management. City tours web edits with Shirin. Various other web edits. Lunch from the cafeteria, ate in Saunders Court: roast chicken sandwich, side salad. Updated schedules for Lucia. Helped student PE with a question about MyAccess. Various web edits. Communications staff document work. Dinner at home with Patrick: nonspicy jambalaya, baguette, Smart Balance Light, hot water. Set up home linkchecking again after having none for a long time. Dessert: 2 small scoops of vanilla ice cream with Kahlua. Stretches. Weight training: superslow lateral raise. Stretches. Late meal: hot nonfat milk, lowfat yogurt, chunky soup.
