Usual oatmeal breakfast. Swept in the back yard. Showered. Mended some clothes. Other house chores. Lunch with Patrick at home: turkey sandwiches. Dessert: one homebaked chocolate and peanut butter cookie. Archived a document. Uploaded photos to Flickr. Weight training: leg lift. Watched The Bourne Ultimatum (2007) on Netflix DVD with Patrick. Afterwards we realized we watched the trilogy out of order—this is the 3rd film and we still haven't yet seen the 2nd, The Bourne Supremacy. No wonder we couldn't remember what was going on at the beginning, but it didn't matter much, I think. It's nearly all suspense, stunts, and effects, just like Ebert said. Processed and uploaded more photos to Flickr. When preparing a Flickr upload I titled one of my photos "UCSF BARCWA/WIHS" and a few minutes later when the download ended I went to Google and searched on "UCSF BARCWA/WIHS" because I wasn't familiar with this office and needed to find additional details. The only link that Google returned was a link to www.flickr.com/photos/tags/sanfrancisco/?page=2 which linked to the web page with the photo I just uploaded! I was rather stunned. To me, this means that Google in certain situations indexes practically in real time! Dinner at home with Patrick: turkey burgers, split pea and ham soup. More Flickring. Late beverage: peach detox with local honey. Read a little more from Philip Pullman's The Amber Spyglass.
