An update on the ant problem discovered two days ago: live ants are all gone. We left traps in place partly to be sure in case any returned and partly because we were too busy working or prepping for Thanksiving to remove them and more fully clean. Medium bowl of oatmeal with milk, flax meal, cacao nibs, toasted shaved coconut, sliced and toasted almonds, diced half banana; hot water. Walked and rode Muni to UCSF Parnassus. Siteimprove linkchecking, spellchecking, and policy work. Updated Michael D's person page what i do. Created a new cubicle nameplate for Angelie for Wan-Yu. Followup with John L about removing my work phone number from various systems. Chatted with Nathan D about ants. Followup with Jaime K about OpenGraph issues with ACDRS. Lunch from Ladle and Leaf: salmon salad, chicken noodle soup, sourdough bread, water from my water bottle. Filed pcard paperwork. Granted access to a Powerpoint template for Tristan S. Requested title changes for Jeffrey N from Vicky V. Resolved problems with a problematic multitab structure for Mandy B. Delivered digital letterhead to Ziran L. Updated the town hall calendar invitation to reflect a changed time. Continued work on the new year message. Walked and rode Muni home. For dinner Patrick and I walked to Golden Boy Pizza which opened recently in the space formerly occupied by Marco Polo Ice Cream. Patrick had a pepperoni slice. I had a pesto veggie slice. There was no place to eat, so we ate on the sidewalk. No drinks. There was a line when we arrived, and they were busy the whole time I was there. There's no other place I know that has a line at night on Taraval. It's really different for our neighborhood. Today I removed two Wiz smart light bulbs which had turned dumb because they stopped working correctly and nothing I tried could make them work properly again. We replaced them with regular light bulbs. I'm not sure smart light bulbs are worth it now. I might never buy them again. We watched Shrinking s2:e8 on Apple TV+ with butter microwave popcorn. Late snack: vegan butter pretzels, toasted marshmallow torani in sparkling water.
