The Truth Is More Important Than The Facts

I saved a salamander from the puppies last night (so far they were only rolling him around on the ground.) With my recent troubles getting the dogs to listen while my parents are away, I think I'd choose the dogs over the salamander.

Also, we went to the ballet last night. It was done to Handel's "Messiah" and was a very lovely thing to watch. Trying to suss out the symbolism was very interesting. One problem was that if I hear music and am not in a situation doing something else (reading, writing, driving, etc) my eyes close automatically so I can focus on the music. And that defeats the purpose of going to the ballet.
