Began packing. Resolved a problem introduced following the iMac's return from service at the Apple Store. Sophos for Mac was reporting "Error moving the file to the infected folder" and "Access to the infected file denied". I found that /Users/Shared/Infected did not exist so I created it, and I also reset permissions on that folder for everyone to have read and write access, but that did not fix the problem. I dirty reinstalled Sophos. Separately, in my Win 7 VM, I manually uninstalled Sophos, restarted Windows, then installed SEP. Separately, I received error "Mail wants to use the 'login' keychain" when opening Apple Mail. I opened Keychain Access preferences > First Aid and selected "Synchronize login keychain password with account." Confirmed Win 7 VM has SEP installed correctly. Worked on divorce paperwork. Had planned to have brunch with Drew but he took a raincheck because a receptionist had called in sick. Weeded bookmarks. Laundry. Nap. Grocery shopping. Watched The Outlaugh Festival on Wisecrack Episode 1 on Netflix instant watch while eating a Safeway sandwich. Made 3 loaves of caribbean banana bread. Finished packing. Muni to Embarcadero. Walked to the Amtrak station just south of the Ferry Building Marketplace. Took Amtrak's connecting bus service to Emeryville. Caught the Coast Starlight, meeting Rob, Lani, Jeremy, Matthew, Kiana, and Akemi. Jer had saved 2 small slices of cheese pizza for me. I ate a cherry yogurt. I haven't traveled by train like this since 2000.
