Breakfast at home: oatmeal with fresh organic pear, City Bees McLaren Park honey, cinnamon, nonfat milk. Drove to Bay Area Bikes in Oakland, bought a Dahon Curve SL bicycle on sale for $730 and got lots of accessories at 10% off. I think this is a 2009 model because the color is "magnesium"—the model year of my bike is not really clear from the website, and I think I was led to believe that it was a 2010 model but I really didn't care that much. Jeff handled my sale, friendly, helpful. Eric and Amber's wedding at Joaquin Miller Park in Oakland followed by the reception at the Boat House. People I knew already: Scott, Katie, Susie, Jeff. Those I met: Dickie Doo, Phil, Janelle, Dana, Dan, Shanoah, Karen, BJ. Had a lovely time. Forgot to take my phone with me today, but I had paper maps and nothing went terribly wrong because of it. Felt out of sorts, that's all. Instead of a wedding cake there was a tower of cupcakes: red velvet, and I think the other 2 flavors were vanilla and Guinness. A really pleasant wedding. 2nd dessert at Chris and Nates's with Chris, Nate, Dave, Quyen, Drew, Richard, Phil, Danny, Romy: almond cake, whipped cream, raspberries, blueberries, apple pie, tiramisu.
