Medium bowl of oatmeal with milk, flax meal, cacao nibs, toasted shaved coconut, sliced and toasted almonds, blueberries; hot water. Cleaned all screens with water and lint-free cloth. Restored the OXO pepper grinder to operation. There still seemed to be a little water under the cuff, but since it was on the outside I believe it will not be a problem. Troubleshot problems with Siri constantly asking "Who is speaking?" I turned some settings off and then on again to see if it would make a difference. Troubleshot problems with automations for some lights in our small bedroom. I switched from using automations in the light bulbs' app to using automations in the Apple Home app. Made a small change to the styles for Lodestar Quarterly: why did I ever set a min-height: 100px for interviewer and interviewee classes? Orchid maintenance. Lunch: Patrick had an avocado salad with toast with butter. I had leftover wagyu dumplings with shrimp spring rolls from frozen. Cleaned the bathroom. Cut my hair, showered. Cleaned the bathroom. Later we walked to CVS at 19th and Ortega. Patrick got flu and covid vaccines. We paid out of pocket and will attempt to get reimbursed by our health care provider. We bought toiletries and other supplies. Walked home. Rested. Lemonade. I prepared dinner: Real Simple's mustardy kale salad with roasted sweet potatoes and apples. We subbed a nectarine for the apple. Hot water for Patrick, cherry lemonade for me. Afterwards we watched Oppenheimer on Amazon Prime Video with butter microwave popcorn. I was supposed to chat with my brother and sister on Zoom tonight but I forgot—so embarrassing.
