Another beautiful day, and I aim to take advantage of it. Yesterday I had a nice walk to the post office, where the clerk is friendly and helpful. I've never seen him unflappable. In the afternoon I had my teeth cleaned, which is not my favorite activity, but they were also friendly. What a concept, after the last dentist, who seemed to find his work frustrating and his patients an inconvenience.
I'm still reading my economics book, and it continues to be fascinating. I'm learning a huge amount about how we think and make decisions. And there is so much research, who knew?
Last night we watched The Boys from Brazil, which holds up beautifully after all these years. Laurence Olivier, Gregory Peck, James Mason, Bruno Ganz and a host of character actors do a great job. It's still scary, and still plausible. The music is excellent, and the cinemotography creative. My husband had a dream about it after, but I blithely dreamed of a Buddhist retreat with my teacher, and serving yogurt to everyone there. It was kind of like the loaves and fishes from the New Testament, because one cherry yogurt and one and a half pints of plain managed to feed the whole table. Make of that what you will.
