Rode Muni to Union Square, met Angel and Claudia for breakfast at Sears Fine Food. Jonny is in town to attend a continuing education class, and they are sightseeing while he is here. They shared the 18 Swedish pancakes with lingonberries. I had Al's Special: 9 pancakes with corned beef hash, hash browns, and two eggs over easy. About $50 after tip. Among other things, we talked about theatre, kouign amann, daiso, mackinaw island, music camp, violins, cats and dogs, michigan, the beach, Santa Cruz, San Diego, social media, phones, anime and manga, totoro sweatshirts, endocrinology. Rode Muni home. Rested and more cold recovery. Patrick returned from his mini retreat to escape my presence at home due to cold symptoms. Medium bowl of oatmeal with milk, flax meal, cacao nibs, toasted and sliced almonds, toasted shredded coconut, blueberries; water. Rode Uber Green to R&G Lounge with Patrick to meet Bev, Celine, and Matt for dinner: bowl of bird's nest soup, salt and pepper crab, half peking duck, scallops with beef and macadamia nuts, braised e-fu noodles: about $250 before tip. Rode Uber Green home.
