Favorite breakfast at the cafeteria. Self study work. Listserv management. More self study work. Reimbursements followup—my request had been accidentally not filed by someone who is not me. Bought flowers and a card for Lucia. Joel bought flowers for Cindy. WebCT help for DTK. Met with Eric 1 on 1. Dinner at Patxi's Chicago Pizza (415-558-9991, 511 Hayes Street). We had a large salad with bleu cheese dressing, and a large pizza with pepperoni and mushrooms. The pizza seemed really salty to me but was otherwise delicious. I think I ate only one slice—it was so filling. Cherry cokes for me and Chris, red wine for Nate. Afterwards we went to Citizen Cake for dessert. We each chose a different dessert and shared everything. Peppermint tea for me and Chris, a (latte?) for Nate. The place was empty while we placed our orders, and we chatted amiably with the workers behind the counter. One had on very red lipstick and was using a box cutter to cut halloween shapes out of small paper bags for tea light decorations. The other wore a t-shirt that said "I (heart)" followed by a depiction of hands describing intercourse in American Sign Language. (He wore this shirt underneath a long-sleeved black t-shirt that was more appropriate for a work uniform.)
