Medium bowl of oatmeal with milk, flax meal, cacao nibs, toasted shaved coconut, sliced and toasted almonds, diced half banana; side of plain nonfat yogurt; hot water. For the past few days my iPhone 16 Pro microphone has not been working in Sleep Cycle and in Duolingo and in Voice Memo, but it has been working for Siri. Following suggestions found on the web, I changed to a different region and back again and that did not fix it. I changed to a different language and back again and that also did not fix it. I turned the phone off and on again and that did not fix it. I checked Vocal Shortcuts and it was already off. What fixed it for me was turning off Apple Intelligence and restarting. Walked and rode Muni to meet Patrick for lunch at Taishoken. Tokusei tsukemen for Patrick, tonkotsu ramen for me. We each had a hojicha palmer. All food and drink were delicious. $58.57 after SF mandate and tax. While dining, a woman complimented me on my Abercrombie black and white winter sweater, and I thanked her. Afterwards we shared mint chip ice cream at Smitten. We attempted to visit Arizmendi but they were closed. Walked and rode Muni home. Nap. Dinner at home with Patrick: black bean and avocado quesadillas, hot water. Dessert: leftover pumpkin pie with whipped cream from a can. I washed dishes. I made Patrick a cocktail: bourbon with ginger beer on the rocks. We watched What If…? s3:e4 on Disney+ then Big Mouth s1:e1 on Netflix. Long ago we had started watching Big Mouth but for some unknown reason we saw only two episodes. Patrick went to bed. I joined a while later.
