Slept in. Breakfast: leftovers from dinner last night, hot water. Changed the air purifier prefilter. Spot-vacuumed the upper level. Applied Minwax red mahogany stain to tiny and small scratches on our mule chest. Paid an HOA bill. Dusted the dining room chandelier. Uploaded a photo to Flickr. Troubleshot a problem with Patrick's phone charging at bedside—unable to reproduce. Cleaned Patrick's phone and case. HOA paperwork. Walked to the library to pick up a DVD. Walked to 440 to meet Dan and Jie, meeting the latter for the first time. Patrick joined us after a few minutes. We sat in their parklet and drank and chat for a few hours. This was Patrick's first time sitting and drinking in the 440 parklet. Afterwards the four of us walked to Anchor Oyster to see whether it was crowded already, and it was. Patrick and I decided to eat instead at Sausage Factory and said goodbye to Dan and Jie who wanted to dine later. Patrick and I shared a half Caesar salad and one chicken parm plate with penne in marinara subbed for mashed potatoes. Water for both to drink. Walked home. We watched 54 minutes of Always (1989) on SFPL DVD before Patrick was too tired to continue. Patrick went to bed. I continued working on HOA paperwork. Late small meal: leftovers from dinner last night, hot water.
