Medium bowl of oatmeal with milk, cinnamon, sliced banana; water. Sprint standup. Answered a question about how to order stationery for Lisa D. 1:1 with Eric. Followup with Izzy R about bulk email options. Followup with Jennifer E about automatically updating pubs on lab sites in D8. Followup with Mandy M about needing to make changes to the Residencies site. RSS to email work in Sendinblue. Rode UberX to my first dentist appointment in 18 months—all is well. Bought bread and pastries at Arizmendi. Rode UberX home. Dinner at home with Patrick: delivery from Squat and Gobble: crispy chicken sandwich for Patrick, crabcake sandwich for me. Patrick had ordered a side of fries in one and a side of cole slaw in the other but we mistakenly got fries in both and did not complain about it. Each dish included a large pickle slice of which only I had a few bites. The crispy chicken sandwich turned out to be too spicy for me. We had planned to share both sandwiches but abandoned this plan upon this discovery. Dessert: one Arizmendi ricciarelli each. Afterwards we watched part of Rick Steves Egypt: Yesterday and Today on YouTube. Patrick went to bed. I joined shortly afterwards and slept until around 11 pm then arose. Read from dead tree editions of books and magazines. Did some weight training: dumbbell curl. Returned to bed around 2 am. Lately I have been experimenting (again) with biphasic sleep and with avoiding luminous screens late at night to try to improve sleep. Late meal: peas and corn off the cob, both from frozen; water.
