Slept in. Breakfast: hot milk with a splash of decaf coffee, Ferrell's yeast doughnut with maple frosting and Halloween sprinkles. More catching up on journaling. Prepared a retrospective list of what Patrick and I did for Sam's birthday every year. Recharge Medical work: continued editing new content (USCIS hardship support exam and Medical Exam for Foreign Service (Form DS-1843)), scheduled a followup email campaign (direct-pay primary care). More catching up on journaling. Recharge Medical work: added more med spa content so that people can find a treatment based on the issue they have, then translated to four other languages. Also created a new outdoor sign draft in InDesign and sent it to Drew for review and approval. No lunch. Midafternoon snack: one slice of leftover pizza, water. For dinner, Sam came over, opened gifts from Far West Fungi Santa Cruz, and we all drove to Harris' Restaurant - The San Francisco Steakhouse. Three glasses of bordeaux by the glass. We shared a wedge salad. Sam got Steak Diane, medium. Patrick got the 12-ounce petit filet, medium. I got the 8-ounce petit filet, medium. For dessert we shared a pumpkin spice baked alaska. All food, drink, and service were excellent. Sam drove us home.
