Facebook's Flickr option in the mini-feed doesn't show thumbnails in my profile. I looked for a competing Facebook app that would but couldn't find any that automatically refreshed and also didn't have bugs. Today Patrick and I drove to Corte Madera to spend a few hours with Melissa who was housesitting for a friend. We got there a little early and enjoyed morning coffee at a nearby Peet's—it felt strange to sit outside drinking coffee when the weather was sunny and warm. We had some difficulty finding the right house since the house numbers were out of order. We eventually found the right one, and after being invited in for a few minutes we stepped out again to get some brunch and explore the area. We ate at a nearby diner then checked out the Marin Civic Center Farmer's Market where we bought fruits and vegetables. Afterwards we returned to the house and drank cold flavored iced tea. Despite the hot weather, we enjoyed our time with Melissa. Drove home. Patrick napped. Dinner at Buca di Beppo with Ludwig, Dave, Dave, Phil, Drew, Danny, Jen, Patrick, Chris, and Nate. Patrick and I gave Nate an eraser shaped like a Delete key (from Giant Robot), MON-KEYS (key identifiers shaped like monkey heads), and The River Cottage Meat Book (hardcover) by Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall. Home. Archived documents. Prepared an anniversary card. Completed and prepared for mailing a thank you card. Found Patrick's Chinese character signature stamp (#1) which we had been looking for earlier. It was in my desk drawer with the stamps and envelopes.
