Pre-brunch at home: one-egg tomato omelette with grated cheese. Began work to resolve MySQL problems encountered following my recent upgrade to MAMP Pro 3.2.1. Brunch at ChouChou with Patrick, Danny, Romy, Phil, Drew, Markus, Akkachai, Chris O. For all of us this was our first time meeting Akkachai and Chris O. Phil had a lamb crepe. Drew had a salmon crepe. I had beef bourguignon. Patrick had a shrimp crepe. Chris O had a hamburger with swiss, fries. Markus had a salmon crepe and the ravioli. Akkachai had the ravioli. Danny had a salmon crepe. Romy had a lamb crepe. Dishes came out haltingly instead of all at once, and a waitress dropped soiled silverware on Markus' back but the only complaint from any of us was from Markus: the crepe wasn't French enough. Everyone else seemed to enjoy their food. No dessert. Afterwards, Markus, Akkachai, Danny, and I visited Grand View Park, 16th Avenue Tiled Steps, and Twisted Donuts and Coffee. Checked on the garden. Completed MySQL problem resolution by manually rebuilding databases and users on local. Upgraded Drupal 6 for Patrick's website at the same time: core and cck. Snack: Patrick and I shared a maple pecan donut from Twisted. Dinner at home with Patrick: we prepared medium salads with garlic sauce dressing, hummus and warm pita. Dessert: Patrick and I each had a cream puff from Twisted. Watched "Deja Q" from Star Trek: The Next Generation season 3 on Netflix instant watch with Patrick. Began another round of edits of a new novel by Patrick. Successfully installed Office 2011 14.5.2. Uploaded photos to Flickr, sent a set to Danny for review.
