Recently I resolved a problem which I tweeted about on August 25: "are any other tweeters receiving duplicate tweets via sms a few minutes apart? seems to have started a few days ago for me..."—I had turned on the Repeat Alert switch in iPhone preferences for Messages. Once I turned it off, the problem went away. Breakfast at home: leftover mini-loaf coconut-banana bread, pina colada lowfat yogurt. To work. Linkchecking. Training for Sammie: KeePass, password management, PharmAdMIT. Office celebration. I ate fruit salad, a pumpkin muffin, and a mini doughnut from Krispy Kreme. To drink: mixed sparkling mineral water with a little bit of juice. Shirin tried cottage cheese for the first time ever (nonfat). Lots of work restoring accidentally closed email accounts. Calendar management. Portable hard drive backup maintenance: needed to remake one drive, plain copy operation in Finder failed. Will use rsync instead tomorrow. Archived data to portable hard drives. Installed a new keyboard for Sammie. Prepared a slide for Cindy for the forthcoming memorial. Lunch: leftover spaghetti and meatless meatballs, water. Compiled another accounts lifecycle problem report, sent it to Doug C and CBW, copied to the SCWG wiki. To home. Chatted briefly with Sharon Y while waiting for the 6. Muni bus 66 6:50 PM bus leaves at 6:57 PM - unusually late for this route. Snack: a few cinnamon honey almonds. Nap. Late dinner at home: a few tablespoons of nonfat cottage cheese, 2 fresh corn on the cob, 6 ounces of day-old coca cola. Testarossa 80s night. One of the bartenders was dressed just like Indiana Jones. Walked in to a drag performance of Olivia Newton-John's Physical. DJ tonight was Mark Andrus—excellent mixing, good lighting, a little heavy on the guitar rock. Skipped out to Badlands, walked in to Katy Perry's California Gurls, stayed for a few songs. Music ended at 1:40 AM, so I left. Chatted briefly with Mauricio who says he's leaving SF in December. Went to QBar which was still playing music, danced for a few minutes, returned to Trigger, stayed til the music stopped. Late meal at Orphan Andy's: veggie burger with mushrooms, fries, ice water.
