Patrick and Sam celebrated today 15 years of knowing each other. Usual oatmeal breakfast. Patrick visited Simmone then later went to a party for Kai. I walked the Golden Gate Bridge with Chris and Nate—their first time walking the full length of the bridge. We got a snack afterwards at the adjacent hot dog diner which isn't a hot dog diner then drove to Union Street and got lunch at Crepes-a-Go-Go. I had wanted to eat at Chez Maman but outside the 2 or 3 tables were full and inside it was unbearably hot like an oven. Food and service at Crepes-a-Go-Go was very good—I would go back. Afterwards we drove back to Chris and Nate's. Chris and I napped while Nate prepared us a delicious dinner—the first they've cooked for anyone since moving in. Bagel chips, hummus, sliced French bread, cheeses. Grilled BSCBs (boneless skinless chicken boobs), deep-fried potatoes, flash-fried spinach with onions and blue cheese. For dessert: individual mini molten chocolate cakes, vanilla frozen yogurt. A wonderful day. Patrick will be having my camera more now until he leaves for China on September 12, so you'll be seeing more photos in Patrick's photostream and less in mine.
