I used realfavicongenerator.net for the first time today to build a favicon set for Danny's forthcoming website and it was so slick and easy I immediately did another set for Recharge and pushed it live. Drove to the Castro with Patrick, found all-day street parking unexpectedly easily. Late lunch at Gyro Xpress (415-554-0352, 499 Castro Street) with Patrick: chicken gyro wrap and ayran for Patrick, falafel wrap and peach juice for me. We walked in the Castro. Ice cream at Eureka! Cafe (451 Castro Street): dutch chocolate for Patrick, coffee for me. Nap. Dinner at home with Patrick: leftover pizza from last night, seedless grapes. Patrick made an experimental post-dinner cocktail for us but it turned out poorly. Don't mix gin with midori—too sweet, too thick. We threw it out. Watched part of The Darjeeling Limited on Netflix DVD with Patrick and our standard popcorn configuration. So far: quirky fun. Installed Microsoft Word for iPad since Patrick was interested in it. Recharge Spa work for Drew: edited text for a new brochure. Resolved a problem with the Recharge website in which the focusability of a floated anchor wrapping an image was interrupted by an h2 that followed it. I surmised a z-index problem, and removing display:relative from the h2 resolved it, so it seems it was something like that. Lots of work for Danny's forthcoming website: vcard mastering, logo mastering, avatar master drafted and sent for review, business card drafted and sent for review, domain purchase and assignment. Web work now just waiting on final testing.
