Quick breakfast: granola with greek yogurt, lactaid milk, blueberries. Sam picked up Patrick and me. We visited California Academy of Sciences using two tickets that my brother had gotten me for Christmas and one discounted ticket I purchased with the UCSF discount. We enjoyed our visit very much, seeing The Swamp, the Earthquake exhibit and room, the Osher Rainforest, the Habitat Earth planetarium show, Tusher African Hall, the penguins, the aquarium, the living room. Afterwards Patrick and Sam had a class assignment to complete at the de Young Musuem which took about 20 or 30 minutes. We then drove to The Home Depot in Colma to pick up a few items. Sam dropped us at home. Nap. Patrick and I walked to 19th and Taraval. Along the way we encountered lots of people walking westward due to the Muni L train being broken for some reason. Dinner at Sushi Raw with Patrick: two bento boxes with miso soup, salad, aji fly, tempura, tempura shrimp, teriyaki salmon, chicken katsu, spicy tuna sushi. To drink: a discounted large hot sake, ice water. Walked home. Muni L still broken. Helped Will with some paperwork he needs. I learned today that if you want to add a drawn signature to a PDF from a Mac with a Magic Trackpad or a mouse, it's much easier to do in Preview than in Adobe Acrobat Pro 11. Acrobat Pro theoretically has a way to do it, but the cursor while drawing is so sensitive as to be completely unusable, and it requires three-finger drawing, which is clumsy because you easily run out of room on the trackpad. With Preview I used one finger and it was surprisingly simple. I was done in a few seconds.
