Yesterday I watched football with Josh, Julian, and Beech. We were all disappointed that the 49ers lost on the last play of the game, but we were heartened by the fact that they played so well against a better team. I participated again in the regular Sunday family dinner in San Mateo. Julian had cooked two different kinds of chili. We all had fun. In the evening PBS started showing the new Ken Burns work on the national parks, so I read some more of The Economist while it played in the background. I again turned in early (at midnight) and had a good night's sleep.
