Woke. Ate breakfast (cinnamon and brown sugar oatmeal). Napped. Woke. Showered. Went to Barnes and Noble in Colma coz Patrick got a $50 gift card from Dianne for his birthday—an early gift. Adding in the $28 I had left on my B&N gift card from Dianne for Christmas, Patrick got a ton of books: "Resistance, Rebellion, and Death" and "A Happy Death" by Camus; "Albert Camus: Lyrical and Critical Essays" by Thody; "in the snow forest" by Parvin; "The Vintage Book of Amnesia: an anthology of writing on the subject of memory loss" by Lethem. We got some chicken strips and fries at McDonald's for a midday snack. Patrick is still on Chapter 14. It's taking longer than he wanted, but he's still on schedule. I watched the Roger Ebert commentary of Citizen Kane.
