Medium bowl of oatmeal with milk, diced dried fruits: jackfruit and pineapple; water to drink. Ran and walked in place while continuing to play Creaks on Apple Arcade on Apple TV. Lunch at home with Patrick: Patrick's cajun-spiced beef with grilled onions in flatbread, water. I washed dishes. Walked in place while finishing Creaks on Apple Arcade on Apple TV. Snack: tortilla chips, salsa, water. Weight training: leg press, various leg lifts. Watched various Free Guy extras on YouTube with Patrick. Cocktails: moscow mules. Dinner at home with Patrick: delivery from Shanghai Dumpling King (Monterey Blvd) via Uber Eats: green onion pancake, shredded pork with garlic sauce, sweet and sour prawns, pea sprouts with garlic sauce, pan-fried pork bun. The order also included a free chicken chow mein for spending more than $50. Dessert: Patrick made a lime posset. Afterwards we watched Daredevil s1:e7 on Netflix instant watch. Patrick went to bed, and we cuddled for a while before I arose. Troubleshot documenting the failures that I have been having with a Toshiba Canvio Slim external hard drive. Each time after it is reformatted the drive works fine for between one and four months. I don't have a free and effective way to run a detailed diagnostic with a Mac, so I'll try to bring it in to work after I return to work so that I can connect it to a Windows computer. Disk First Aid finds problems with the drive after they occur, but after each reformat it finds no problems with it. Pattern and motif research for the Recharge website in development. Listened briefly to the Creaksbox by Hidden Orchestra—delightful!
