Walked to breakfast at Wooden Spoon with Patrick. We shared The Big Spoon. Patrick drank coffee, I had a chai latte. About $52 after tax and tip. Afterwards, errands. Cleaned the soles of my heated slippers with Dawn PowerWash. Leafblew and swept on the exterior stairwell, the patio, and in the garage. Noticed new damage to the garage, oddly in the same place that I made a repair in the past. Did some minor touch-up painting to interior walls. Shower. No lunch, but in the early afternoon I had a tiny portion of leftover teriyaki tofu and asparagus with rice. Patrick and I used neural filters in Photoshop to colorize some of his old black and white photos. Continued advanced health care directive work. Walked to pick up dinner from El Tucan: burritos, chips, melon aguas frescas. Afterwards I patched holes in walls with spackling compound after hardware had been removed a while ago. Later we rewatched about one hour of Interstellar. We had started on Paramount+ but after encountering the low-volume problem that we had with Paramount+ in the past, we realized we could instead watch it on Hulu, which doesn't have the same problem, so we did that. Microwave popcorn. Patrick went to bed. I processed dirty dishes, cleaned the kitchen, and started the dishwasher. I joined Patrick in bed a few hours later.
