First morning back after being gone for a while. Slept in. Patrick made scones. It's raining all day today. Oh, well! I need to stay indoors anyhow. Laundry, cutting my hair, home linkchecking, catching up on e-mail and snail mail, archiving documents, paying bills, uploading photos. I received a letter dated December 8, 2005 from Supervisor Fiona Ma responding to the September 29 letter I wrote to her about the problems with MUNI Bus 66 not showing up sometimes. It's a pretty standard form letter—very disappointing. Here's what she said: "Dear Mr. Farm, Thank you very much for your letter regarding the quality of service provided by MUNI bus line 66. I have forwarded your concerns to MUNI to address these issues. I appreciate your input into this matter and your activism on this issue to help make conditions better for all of our City's residents. Again, thank you for taking the time to write to my office. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have anything further on this or other concerns in the district. Warm regards, Fiona Ma." Why does it take 8 weeks to write so little? Lunch: ramen. Dinner with Patrick at So Restaurant: fried fish, potato cakes, chicken and fungus noodles. Grocery shopping at Safeway on Taraval.
