Toe procedure recovery. Medium bowl of oatmeal with milk, flax meal, cacao nibs, toasted shaved coconut, sliced and toasted almonds, diced quarter banana; hot water. Worked from home. Siteimprove linkchecking, spellchecking, and policy work. Organized files. Lunch: leftover baked petrale sole with Greek ladolemono dressing, corn off the cob from frozen, leftover sauteed mushrooms; water. Team meeting: social media strategy. Dinner at Teakwood with Patrick. Cocktails: Patrick had Letters from Myanmar (Suntori whiskey, 5 Spice demerara, bitters blend, peaty mist), I had Tea Punch (black tea infused mezcal, Mekhong spirit, orange pekoe, lemon). The meal: tea leaf salad, platha, burmese fried chicken. The tea leaf salad had jalapenos on the side, but Patrick said they were not spicy. Today the chili jam included with the chicken was not spicy even to me. Our meal was delicious and perfect. The platha is particularly heavenly and just the right amount of richness. Server Dylan was excellent. While circling the block by foot to pass time before a show, we encountered and chatted briefly with Lucie who was accompanied by her mom (and others?), not long before her international departure to Ireland. Patrick and I attended Kid Koala: Nufonia Must Fall at SFJAZZ. This was Patrick's first time and my second time seeing this show. It was again incredible to watch. We each had a Manhattan. Rode Lyft home. Patrick went to bed. Resolved the recurring problem in which my Mac cannot connect to Patrick's Mac using the usual solution. Uploaded photos to Flickr. Geotagged lots of ungeotagged content on Flickr.
