Patrick made breakfast: banana almond pancakes, yogurt. After spending a few minutes testing Xubuntu on Patrick's old laptop, I erased the whole hard drive with Darik's Boot and Nuke 1.0.6. I think the keyboard or mouse wasn't working consistently. I imagine this was the fault of old hardware rather than Xubuntu, but I just couldn't make it work for me. Boot and Nuke's 3-pass method took I think about 90 minutes. Weight training: bench dip. Uploaded photos. Worked on Lodestar. Lunch: salad. Snack: french fries. Patrick and I had planned to meet with Stacey for dinner tonight, but she took a rain check on short notice. Dinner at home with Patrick: pizza. Watched Transamerica on DVD with Patrick. We both enjoyed the film.
