Weight training: door pull ups. Rode Muni to work. Linkchecking, Flickr work, kiosk work. Lots of QBC web work today. ICRD work for Rodney. Small web edit for Joel on the admissions section home page. Web edit for Sammie: course catalogs. Followup with Allison S and Mark B and Lynn R about the 4-MB filesize attachment limitation with our listserv system. Fixed a small problem with the kiosk. Submitted a request to ITS to clarify display names for certain students. Rode Muni N-Judah to Church Street. Met Will at work. We went to the Apple Store downtown and enjoyed watching a band called The Family Crest perform. A coworker of Will's (Lucas) is in the band. The band was surprisingly big (10+ members), and the small stage made that even more pronounced. In addition to the band members, a chorus of about 12 people lined the left wall and joined in for some songs, one of whom sang briefly and well in an operatic voice. Several of the band members performed multiple instruments. For example, one woman performed the keyboard, xylophone, timpani, and tambourine. She also sang. I was impressed with the whole outfit. Very professional and seemed to work seamlessly as a team, which is amazing, considering how large of a band it is. I met friends of Will: Tim and later Sarah. Afterwards we ate at Katana-Ya: rainbow roll, veggie skinny ramen for me, katana-ya ramen for Will. We ran into Sarah again outside of Katana-Ya. Spent the night at Will's.
