General updates
Today I mailed out my last check to Sallie Mae for the forseeable future. All my student loans (masters degree edition) will be paid off once they receive and process the check in a few days. It feels great now, and it will feel even better next month when I don't receive a loan bill.
I saw my doctor for my stubborn elbow tendonitis. She referred me to an orthopedist, whom I will see on Monday. I also have prescription anti-inflammatories to take. They are already making a difference, and the orthopedist is likely to prescribe some additional treatment to completely take care of the problem.
Other Kenjari are going to the Berkshires for August vacation. We're going to see two shows at Tanglewood: Prokofiev's Symphony No. 1 and Orff's Carmina Burana; and then Yo Yo Ma doing the Shostakovich Cello Concerto No. 1 and the Faure Elegie along with orchestral works by Perle and Bizet. I looked at the contemporary music festival offerings, but I wasn't terribly excited by them (too much Boulez!). I found myself more drawn to the big early 20th century works, so that's what we're going to go for. We'll probably also do some hiking and other vacation-y things.
