Cleaned the tub in the primary bathroom with Barkeeper's Friend More. Removed schmutz and sloppy-paint-job paint spatter from the sliding glass door frame using Goof Off. Breakfast at home: two mushroom and chinese green bao, hot water. Rewashed new towels because they were still shedding a lot of lint. Washed lint-free towels separately. Sanded new bamboo organizers for Patrick's desk because they were too rough upon arrival. Put into service in the secondary bathroom a new shaving mirror, which required Goo Gone after removing the label on the back. Its suction cup also failed to stick to the tile in the secondary bathroom, similar to everything else we have tried that has had a suction cup. In every case it holds for a few minutes but then it just falls off. Afternoon snack: a handful of unsalted pretzels, three pixie mandarins, water. Installed an uninterruptible power supply under Patrick's desk and managed cords. Dinner at home with Patrick: kung pao chicken with steamed rice, hot water. Patrick processed dirty dishes, then I cleaned the stovetop and deep-cleaned the stovetop backsplash. Cutting board wood butter treatments.
