- Saw that my checking account got dangerously low. Peace of mind would have been overdraft protection which by default is off. I set it up to withdraw from the digital savings account since I keep that at $4k+.

- Gaming at David and Sophia's house. Got an almost 3-hour session in though it was basically a long fight which I found a bit boring and tiring about a couple of hours.
- We went to dinner at Chicken Meets Rice. I guess Singaporean style basic dish. It's basically a fast food type place with lots of people getting takeout.

- One of our HOA residents is replacing their windows with double-paned (from Brothers Home Improvement, recommended by our HOA manager) and we sent an email seeing if other people are interested and with enough there may be a discount. She's doing 8 windows and it's $22k. I have two small ($2k?), one larger ($2.5k), one window door in bedroom ($3.7k?) and one big window door in main room ($5k?) so I think my place would be like $13.2k plus labor (which is about 15%).
- Unfortunately far more than I'm willing to pay at this time when I have no income. EVCS I continued to do it because it's been several years to get the project to installation and I'm expecting some amount of rebate from Peninsula Clean Energy. Yeah my windows are old and leak air like crazy but I never use my heater and live with the not that many days of hot and cold extremes.

- MLS Season Pass is free for Apple TV+ subscribers for remainder of the season and then it'll auto-renew at $80 starting next season (Feb 2025). Which means I can watch the past premium episodes I missed, though I guess I'm not going back all the way to the beginning. But I am in the first week of Leagues Cup so I can watch those games including the elimination rounds, which were not free.
- Of course with Season Pass you don't see which games were free and Apple TV doesn't tell you what you've watched so going back would be hard.
- Huh, I can only go back in Past Matches to the start of Leagues Cup. So I guess even with League Pass eventually you can't just go back to see all past games.

- HOA Meeting. There was a surprise motion to drop our security service vendor, after like a 20 minute discussion, which did not pass 2 yes, 2 no. I voted no because it was a surprise and there is no replacement suggested other than maybe a volunteer can do the nightly door checks.
- There was also another non-unanimous vote to replace some of our front lawn vegetation that has a fungus infestation. The con is that we should redo the front lawn to a more water frugal theme. I voted yes because my reason is that changing the lawn will take months as we set up a committee and discuss options and in the meantime we should upkeep the lawn and replacing dying shrubbery is part of that.

- Tiny Tina's Wonderlands. I kept losing connection to SHIFT which then drops me out of the session. Next time I have to remember to reset my Airport before the game.
