Ran in place to Apple News Today and Fifth and Mission podcasts and while playing Beyond Blue on Apple Arcade. Medium bowl of oatmeal with milk and blueberries, heated slice of citrus pound cake, water. Sprint standup. Chatted with La'Trece in email. Forwarded an HR request about Rupa T to Angela B. Finished editing a news story for Levi. Read NNGroup's email newsletter. Lunch at home: I prepared for myself tonkatsu-flavored ramen with baby bok choy, tofu, cilantro, mixed greens, sliced yellow onion; water. Orgchart work: Pharm Chem. E&I recap meeting. Helped Mandy B and Nancy C with a question about missing images. Dinner at home with Patrick: delivery from Marnee Thai via Uber Eats: potstickers, imperial rolls, bbq chicken, pad thai prawns, brown rice, one thai iced tea. The food was delicious, but prices have gone up, and portion sizes have gone down. If only one of these, it might have been tolerable. But both? We acknowledge that restaurants are hurting, but this is not the way I want to be rewarded for supporting restaurants, and I'm not sure we'll order from Marnee Thai again at least for a while. Late snack: celery sticks, hummus, pretzel sticks, water.
