Breakfast at home: I prepared for myself pork sausage scramble with two eggs, mirepoix, and mediterranean vegetables, all from frozen except the eggs. Hot water to drink. Continued new home setup. Patrick and I hung a Chinatown artwork in the dining room. Later I napped and Patrick visited his mom and Kerry. I met him at Wooden Spoon, but it was too crowded, so we instead brunched at Bar 49: we shared shrimp and grits and french toast. Aperol spritz for me, mimosa for Patrick. Afterwards we shopped for home furnishings along Valencia Street, buying two pillows and a throw at Black and Gold. Walked home, stopping at Ritual Coffee along the way for a vanilla cardamom latte for Patrick and a chai for me. I replaced a 15-foot HDMI cable with a 6-foot one because it was too long. Later, dinner at home with Patrick: leftover rice with vegetables and chicken stock with one small piece each of battered cod from frozen. Hot water to drink. We watched various videos on Apple Music. We rewatched Andor s1:e9 on Disney+ then What We Do in the Shadows s6:e4 on Hulu. Patrick went to bed. I covered the logo on the new television with black gaff tape. Late snack: tiny bowl of mac and cheese using leftover macaroni, butter, milk, and cheese powder. Water to drink.
