Medium bowl of oatmeal with milk, flax meal, cacao nibs, toasted shaved coconut, sliced and toasted almonds, blackberries; hot water. Walked and rode Muni to get my flu and covid vaccines and get other medical things done. While at the medical facility (which had really awful wifi speeds) published a news story. Web edit for Rebecca B. Identified and weeded unpublished news stories from a long time ago. Many were tests that could be deleted. Some were dupes that could be deleted. Some seemed like finished news stories but were never published, and it's unclear why. Late lunch at Moffitt Cafe: lemon chicken orzo soup, dinner roll (awful, and I knew this but had forgotten) with butter, packaged asian salad with ginger sesame dressing (surprisingly good). Purchased licenses for AP Stylebook. Attended Julia S's farewell party. In attendance: Tram C, James F, Alexa T, Robyn K, Lauren A, Leslie CS, Edgar M, Kiyomi N, Julie R, Sharon Y, Anne S, Igor M, and maybe one or two others I might have missed. A very large chocolate sheet cake was served, and no one knew what to do with the leftover cake. Walked and rode Muni home. Rested. Walked and rode Muni with Patrick to The Academy to watch the Kamala Harris and Donald Trump presidential debate. We sat on the patio. We weren't near any heaters, but they provided blankets which helped a lot. I of course was prepared with two handwarmers. In addition to drinks, Patrick and I had sausage and mushroom flatbread and the beehive cheese platter which included toast points, spiced nuts (not too spicy for me), and a slightly spicy jam. We were pleased with Harris' performance. Walked and rode Muni home. To bed.
