Great Minds Think Alike (but you already know that)

Highlights. Tommy's absence afforded us a full day of having the house ourselves, and we took full advantage of it. We slept in, brewed a spectacular dark roast as a change of pace, listened to classical on the heels of our outing last night, and just relished in the solitude. It felt like lingering at a vacation rental. The steaks I thawed and seared came out amazing. An evening dog walk and more music wound up a relaxing day.

Insights: Last night's opera outing was more mind-expanding than mind-blowing. Going early and attending the talk prior was substantially bene­ficial. The theater itself was spectacular. I don't recall ever being there before. The performance was incredible. I have a new respect for the art and talent of the voice as an instrument. It inspired me to learn more about the history and origin of opera. We will be returning, but to cheaper seats. There is really not a bad seat in the house. Tommy called and touched base from San Diego. He returns tomorrow. I think I have found a healthy middle ground to avoid being triggered. It's more at the 20% line than the middle and feels like a safe distance.
