Sick day #8. Covid home test was positive. Medium bowl of oatmeal with milk, flax meal, cacao nibs, toasted slivered almonds, toasted shaved coconut, diced half banana; hot water. Worked from home. Reported a problem with wysiwyg scrolling to the top after certain actions. Siteimprove linkchecking, spellchecking, and policy work. Began work on a design project for Leslie CS: commencement stoles. Added a missing transcript to a news story and corrected its YouTube transcript which had not been edited and contained minor errors. Proofed a news story for Suzan R. Lunch: I made some steamed white rice and ate that with Xiao Loong leftovers and some leftover beans. Midafternoon snack: leftover hot and sour soup. HR update. Dinner at home with Patrick: we prepared together (me preparing, Patrick instructing) caprese and butter lettuce salad with warm bread. I washed dishes. Afterwards we watched Netflix: The Ratcatcher then Poison then we attempted to watch My Name Is Mo'Nique but it was too much repetition and profanity and repetitious profanity for us to get past more than a few minutes. Instead we began watching The Hidden Lives of Pets s1:e4 on Netflix and stopped partway through because Patrick went to bed. Late snack: gouda on sourdough toast, water. Troubleshot a problem with Bluehost: An error has occurred while setting up your hosting. Solution: the support engineer cleared a corrupted serverside cache and about 35 minutes later it was resolved. I was told to wait 20 or 25 minutes, but it took about 35.
