Uploaded photos to Flickr. Tried to change my Facebook cover photo, but the procedure failed twice, and I gave up. Repaired a broken seam in my black 511 Levi's jeans. Weeded Flickr contacts. Edited and uploaded more photos to Flickr. Brunch with Danny, Drew, Romy, Phil at their place with Quyen, three Indian co-workers of Quyen whose names I didn't record, Dave, Richard, Rob, Raphael, Scott, Francis. Phil prepared the brunch: sausages, ground turkey, veggie omelettes, meat omelettes, apple-liqueur-infused strawberries, grapes, veggie biscuits, meat biscuits, chilled fruit-and-herb-infused water, and more I forgot. For dessert Richard prepared bread pudding. Car wash at Divisadero Car Wash. Grocery shopping at Whole Foods on Haight, encountered Garrett V and said hello. Home. Applied some touch-up paint to the car. Dinner at home with Patrick: soup that Patrick made yesterday: cabbage, kale, sweet pea, basil, coconut milk, lemongrass; hot water. A little while after dinner Patrick and I opened the new extension dining table to its full length for the first time. Everything works as expected, and all three of the leaves are finished just as excellently as the rest of the table. We left the table in a new configuration with its short edge against the wall. I spent some time on chair foot pad maintenance and prepped 3M command strips for reconfiguring the lighting. I decided today I have to switch away from using Asana for our grocery list because most of the time Asana takes too long to open, crashes upon attempting to open, or I receive a busy signal error message ("trying to reach Asana"). Asana works great when I'm at a computer wired with ethernet, but it's a waste of time on my iPhone 3GS over 3G. Patrick says he encounters similar behavior on his iPhone 5 over 4G LTE. Web work for Recharge Spa. Weight training: standing dumbbell curl. Late meal: vegetable soup from a can. Continued 1st-pass editing of Patrick's second 100 pages of a new book: I'm now on page 197.
