Breakfast: one-egg scramble with spinach, diced tomato, and shallots on focaccia herb slab, hot water. It has been two months since Apple released macOS 26 Tahoe, and I attempted to see if it was safe to install, but Adobe has released no information at all about compatibility with its apps. It's compatibility page doesn't mention Tahoe at all. So I decided to wait two more months and check again. Research for purchasing a pressure washer. Tried to nap but rested and didn't actually fall asleep. Patrick and I just missed the bus by a minute, so we instead walked to dinner at Otra (682 Haight Street). It was about a 12- to 14-minute walk, faster and easier than I had imagined to get to Haight Street. Cocktails: mezcal margarita ($14) for Patrick, old oaxacan ($14) for me. We shared two fried cod tacos with one side of rice and beans ($22) and two pork al pastor tacos without rice and beans ($15). Dessert: buttermilk churros ($8). Food and drink menus here seem very well considered. There's a large mezcal menu and flight offerings. All three desserts (the other two were toasted coconut flan and tres leches cake) were $8 each, which is notably less expensive than other comparable restaurants in San Francisco. Service by Jenny V and the entire team was excellent. $94.34 after a $15 tip. Walked home, encountering much nightlife along Divisidero Street. We watched the remainder of Atsuko Okatsuka: Father on Hulu then YouTube. Patrick went to bed. I continued watching YouTube a while then went to bed.
