Vacation day 8 of 9. In The Old 77. Breakfast in our room: cereal with milk, water to drink. I also ate a navel orange. Packed. Patrick and I visited the Piazza d'Italia then the Ogden Museum. We lunched at Willa Jean: we shared a regular biscuit and the hangover bowl. Turmeric latte for Patrick, jasmine peach tea for me. Returned to The Old 77. Checked out. Despite the room having many issues, we enjoyed our stay, especially since we were able to walk to so many things. Rode Lyft to the airport. United Airlines flight from MSY to SFO. We watched Captain America: The First Avenger on our iPad Air with shared AirPod Pros. We encountered Monique J and later Mike P (from The Syndicate) with baby on the same flight. Champagne, cocktails, and sparkling water. Dinner on the flight: Patrick had thai meatballs with rice pilaf, side salad, dinner roll with butter, basque cheesecake slice. I had cow burger and fries, spinach salad with vinaigrette, basque cheesecake slice. The burger and fries were imperfect in different ways, and I wouldn't order it again, but I was curious to see how well it could be done on a plane. At baggage claim we chatted briefly with Mike P. Rode Lyft home. Settled and began unpacking. Patrick went to bed. After opening my laptop after 8 days on vacation, I noticed a problem in which OneDrive had stopped working. It failed to log in, and it would say "Loading..." and never load. It had been working fine before I left. Restarting the Mac did not fix it. Reinstalling did not fix it. Clean reinstalling and renaming folders to prevent needing to redownload everything did not work; after doing so, OneDrive detected a problem with seemingly every file it had ever downloaded, and there was no easy way to resolve them all at once. I reset (show package contents on the onedrive app, run ResetOneDriveAppStandalone.command in the Resources folder) then fully deleted all current OneDrive folders and symlinks, then set up anew, choosing ~/Library/CloudStorage as the location instead of the default presented, which was I think an older location before Apple moved cloud storage folders to the new location. This troubleshooting and resolving took several hours. I also installed a macOS update on Patrick's computer. I think it was 14.4.1. To bed late.
