- DDO Doing Deception in Stormreach/Attack on Stormreach on Legendary since we usually skip these. I kind of wanted to reincarnate but DW wants to keep playing Legendary quests.

- City of San Mateo web site now looks gigantic on my desktop Safari. I think they changed to adaptive UI and it thinks Safari = mobile. And it does look correct in Chrome.

- Last 3 or 4 nights sleeping on my bed does something to my lower left torso muscles so it's sore and a bit painful when I move. Since I was doing bed sheets laundry today I also flipped the mattress so maybe that will help.

Sleep 0300 to 1145 (8-3/4 hours)
- Took a few hours and got my servers running on the Mac mini. Eventually had to settle for: everything installed with MacPorts except for Postgresql 15 and PgAdmin4 installed with Homebrew because I couldn't figure out how to get MacPorts version of Postgresql 15 running.

- Sunday I realized my right foot felt like a bout of gout was going to occur so I took an Advil that night. Then Monday no meat but my foot was worse but I took an Advil every 6 hours. Tue morning even worse so two Advil at 0600 and 1200 then one Advil at 1800 and 0000 and still no meat. Today I woke up and my foot is much better. Disaster averted; though I'll try to keep it no meat today.
- C3 dinner. Takeout from Charm Thai Eatery.

- One of those nights when I woke up and couldn't get back to sleep. Ended up missing lunch with the guys.
- Parallels Spring sale. 50% off Standard (subscription only, $50/year) and Pro ($60/year). 35% off Business ($97.50/year). Looking around it seems that if your subscription ends you can't use the software anymore. I'd be willing to do a year every two or three.
- In any case CrossOver works really well for my needs -- playing games.
- Noticed that the current MacWhisper cleans up the ExternalMedia folder on startup. Better than doing it on quitting/finishing -- if the app crashes it won't the chance of cleaning up.

- Warhammer Skulls 2026 Digital Goodie Bag on GOG as a promotion. It's basically some wallpapers and coupon codes on the Cubicle 7 store. Worst GOG "free game" promo I've seen. Although come to think of it I vaguely recall they did something similar before.
