When we went to bed last night, we didn't know who the winner of the presidential election would be. We are extremely disappointed to learn this morning at around 8:17 AM that John Kerry has conceded. Patrick is talking about moving to Canada, but I don't see the point in that—yet—since the election was so close. Telecommute day. Linkchecking. Poster project for Chris. Home page redesign work. Lunch at home: canned soup; orange, banana, cinnamon fruit smoothie. A storm moved in to San Francisco this afternoon and brought a lengthy shower of 3-millimeter hailstones from around 3:36 to 3:45 PM. Thunder and lightning, too! Laundry, vacuuming. Edited robots.txt file on the dev server. Admissions pages updates for James. Dinner at home with Patrick: breaded, oven-baked rockfish with zucchini; skinny french fries. Patrick and I read "Without a Doubt" by Ron Suskind, October 17, 2004, New York Times—an interesting (and foreboding) article describing George W. Bush's characteristics of faith and certainty in decision-making. Thanks, Margaret Cho, for providing the link. Shopped online at The Gap, bought 2 shirts.
