Breakfast at home: oat and honey granola with diced gala apple, lactaid milk. Tried to take Muni to work but my bus arrived 3 minutes early. Went home. Responded to work emails. Rode Muni to work. Took 8 flights of stairs two at a time. Email followup with student NN. 1-on-1 with Rodney. Linkchecking, kiosk work. Ordered a new listserv for a student organization. Followup on TeamWork tickets. Installed new mouse pads and ethernet cables that arrived. Downloaded and installed CodeKit 1.5.1 (8248). Copied home folder files from my old computer to my new computer. Downloaded and installed git 1.8.1 from http://git-scm.com/download/mac to my iMac. Got git pull working. Reprepped the old Mac Pro for delivery to Laurel Heights. Similarly installed git 1.8.1 on the MacBook Air. Management activities. Cable management. Finally got all the cables off the ground under my desk. Downloaded and installed Sublime Text 2 (2.0.1) on my iMac. Installed CodeKit and Sublime Text 2 on the MacBook Air. Installed ruby on iMac and MacBook Air. Began installing Compass for iMac and MacBook Air but got stuck, sent an email to Eric C for help. Dentist appointment. Routine cleaning and exam—all went well. Rode Muni to Van Ness Station then to O'Farrell Street. Arrived early for tonight's event, so I walked around the Tenderloin for a while. Alex met me at Great American Music Hall for the Great American Pop-up, an event with crafts, food vendors, and DJ music. I had two vegetarian/vegan tamales with chips and salsa from Donna's Tamales: $11. A margarita on the rocks with salt from the bar: $9 plus a $1 tip. The tamales were good, but not extraordinary. The margarita was weak. Met Alex's friend Katie who worked for Dora's Donuts. We each sampled a chocolate stout donut hole and tiny malasadas. Rode Muni home. Completed setting up the Logitech Z906, plugged it into the iMac using RCA. The speakers sound really great, and setup was very easy. I realized today that I need to move the Airport Express and the Z906 control unit away from the top of the desk; the lights on these devices will interfere with moviewatching. Submitted anonymous complaint to Muni about both 66 busses running 3 minutes early this morning. Orange juice with Sprite. Stretches.
