Staycation day 3 of 16. Patrick heated the La Mejor pan de muerto, and we each ate half. It was delicious. I accompanied mine with four ounces of hot milk with a dash of mexican vanilla. Medium bowl of oatmeal with milk, flax meal, cacao nibs, slivered and toasted almonds, golden raisins; water. Patrick had lunch at home: twisty herbed cheesy bread with egg, water. I rode Muni and walked to Perilla for rare beef and brisket pho with hot tea. Afterwards I went to Kalmanovitz Library so that Patrick could have more space alone at home. Did vacation planning, weeded electronic notes. On leaving I encountered and briefly chatted with Kirk H. We spoke only a few minutes about Kevin S, retirements, vacations, partners needing space at home, driving, car ownership, Powerball's $1 billion prize, The Devil Wears Prada, The Bionic Woman, Ojai, Sea Ranch, and more. Rode Muni home. Dinner at home with Patrick: tuna melts on whole grain bread, water. Dessert: we shared a La Mejor ghost cookie.
