Medium bowl of oatmeal with milk, cacao nibs, toasted shaved coconut, chopped and toasted almonds, diced half mango, cinnamon; hot water. Walked and rode Muni to UCSF Parnassus. Chatted with Suzan about San Diego, her family, Hemet, Pride weekend, and more. Siteimprove linkchecking, spellchecking, and policy work. Academic Affairs content build all day. Standup with Suzan. Lunch to go from Cafe Bellini: avocado and sprouts sandwich. Ate in the spare office with Suzan. In the afternoon Suzan and I met with Lawrence L and Katherine T on Katherine's first day working for School of Pharmacy. Later Suzan and I met with just Katherine. All went well, and we are excited to have Katherine on board. Walked and rode Muni to a dentist appointment. Afterwards I met Patrick at Hulu Wa Chinese Bistro for dinner: we shared an order of steamed white rice. Patrick had tofu eggplant and hot green tea. I had cashew chicken and coconut water. We both thought the meal was good. The space is small. The sauce on my dish was a little too sweet for me but admittedly authentically Chinese-American. Afterwards we walked to Fabulosa Books for a reading: Decades of Pride in Fiction with Trebor Healey, Gar McVey-Russell, and Jim Provenzano. Lucy Jane Bledsoe, Wayne Goodman, and Richard May were others present whom Patrick knew. We enjoyed the reading then walked and rode Muni home.
