Rode Muni to UCSF Parnassus. UCSF shuttle from Parnassus to Laurel Heights. Along the way I continued studying Spanish on Duolingo. Breakfast from The View Cafe: egg, bacon, and cheese on english muffin. Sprint standup. Forwarded an email issue to Rodney for resolution. Fielded a support request for an encrypted external hard drive from Rick; no solution yet, maybe tomorrow. Listserv task handoff followup with Rodney. Closed the issue with styling the offsite link on 2018beyond after the changes had reached production. Updated other microsites that previously had offsite links in their primary nav and prepped the one lab site for later similar work following the push of art changes in the identity retheme. Some task followup in Asana. Troubleshot with EFD a problem that required me to merge master into the branch I was working on for the identity retheme. Bought a few groceries at Trader Joe's for tomorrow's celebration. Encountered EFD catching a Lyft. Rode Uber Pool to the Castro. Errand at Cliff's Variety: returned the R-clip, purchased a new cotter pin. Met Patrick outside of Lookout. Dinner at L'Ardoise: a red Chateauneuf de Pape, mineral water, bread and butter, butter leaf lettuce salad and filet mignon for Patrick, tiger prawn ravioli and filet mignon for me, apple tarte tatin with whipped cream. About $200 after tip. Rode UberX home. Along the way while driving up States Street for only a moment I saw the crescent moon haloed by wispy clouds and framed perfectly within the spires of Sutro Tower—beautiful. Read and edited chapter 8 of 41 of Patrick's forthcoming novel.
