Scheduled mail campaigns for Recharge Medical for Alyssa and Drew. Breakfast at home with Patrick: scrambled eggs with herbs and cherry tomato halves, biscuit, hash brown, 8 ounces of orange juice. Walked and rode Muni to UCSF Laurel Heights. Followup with Marcus and Cindy about PharmD policies changes. Helped Grant and Levi publish a news story. Resolved a missing summary problem for UFD July 2018 on the web. Made a change of address for ACPE on the PharmD homepage as requested by Cindy and Mitra. PowerPoint template work: built a microsite. Shared my how to make a hotfix notes with James H. For lunch I rode the UCSF shuttle from Laurel Heights to Mt. Zion then walked to Avedano's at Maison Corbeaux. I bought a turkey panini and, for later to share with Patrick, a wedge of taleggio cheese and some toast points. They didn't sell drinks or have a place to sit and eat, so I got a Tejava at b on the go then walked to Alta Plaza Park and ate on a park bench with a view of the city. The day was sunny with steady, strong winds. I could hold my bottle at just the right angle to get a constant whistle. The panini turned out to be too spicy for me, but I ate it all. I had even asked for it to be the least spicy she could make it. I guess if I remember we can have a conversation about that next time. I returned to an unplanned request from Susie: send an html email announcement today about the presentation templates availability, so I spent most of the afternoon doing that. At the end of the day I had a little time for Siteimprove work, resolving broken links and resolving problems in some markup. The gray ErgoDriven Topo standing mat I recently ordered arrived today, so I set aside my board of wood and my wobble board to try it out. So far, so good. Rode Uber Pool Express home. Dinner at home with Patrick: Good Eggs jerk tempeh with plantains and nectarine salsa. Dessert: one freshly baked chocolate chip cookie each with 6 ounces of milk. After freshly restarting my 2017 MacBook Pro and then turning the brightness all the way up, the brightness indicator on the screen failed to disappear and the brightness and other function keys on the Touch Bar failed to perform any actions. I resolved this by restarting the computer. Online-chatted with Bluehost support because I wanted to find out if their $72.99/year renewal fee for Recharge Medical could be reduced if I bought multiple years. They said no they can't for addon domains, so I thanked them for answering my question and then after a few seconds found a different domain registrar called NameSilo that will do the reg for about $38/year. I will set it up soon. Stayed up late to finish reading The Ocean at the End of the Lane by Neil Gaiman, which I had been reading on the bus for a while now. It's a beautifully told story which I highly recommend. Late snack: a small bowl of rainier cherries.
