Breakfast at home. Cleaned the shower and vacuumed while Patrick and Sam did sword practice at the nearby park. Discovered that my car had been egged again. Someone had thrown an egg at my car and this time the damage was worse than before. The paint of my car is noticably damaged in a radial pattern where the egg struck the car, and the coating of egg seems to have eroded the gloss of the finish—some of that doesn't wash off. We both still don't know who is doing this or why. We both agree it's not going to do any good to tell the police. Like last time, no other cars on our street seemed to have eggs on them. I can't help but think it's another reason to leave San Francisco, since we can't afford to keep the car safely in a garage. Did a photo shoot for Patrick. We needed various shots of him for his new Web site, which is in development. Lunch at Fuzio in the Castro (415-863-1400, 469 Castro St): spring rolls, barbed wire chicken, singapore pork, tiramisu, one iced tea. US$37.28 after a $5.00 tip. At Cliff's Variety I bought a new pot and potting soil for an orchid repotting project I've been meaning to do for months. Patrick did Mandarin homework and laundry. Napped from 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM. Dinner at home with Patrick: Spanish rice with orange poppyseed shrimp. Shopped for a DVD/CD-RW combo drive; our tape backups are getting tedious and putting some of our stuff onto plastic would help out immensely in that.
