Last Week of Summer Vacation

What am I going to do with my last week before inservice begins?

  • Practice piano (I have a lesson on Thursday)
  • Rehearsals for Seven Brides for Seven Brothers (click the link to get tickets!)
  • Meet with other organizers of The Woodlands Chamber Music Project to discuss our future.
  • Clean up my apartment one last time
  • See a new show or art experience
  • Return library books
  • Try to consciously Sharpen the Saw

I guess it's going to be a busy one. Anyone have exciting plans for this week?

What I'm Reading

  • Still working my way through Drew McManus's blog archives over at Adaptistration. I'm in March of 2012 as I write this. Fortunately it seems he's taken a short hiatus until next Monday so maybe I'll catch up by then!
  • The Nantucket Diary of Ned Rorem. I haven't spent much time listening to Rorem's music (I will be checking out some scores when I go to the library tomorrow), but his writing is a pleasure to read. This particular book is more tinged with melancholy than previous ones, as it chronicles his advancing age.
