a love supreme

I was feeling better today. I was able to keep down a bit bread and water this morning, and a bit more bread and juice for lunch, so we went on to the concert.

What do you get when you combine fourteen of the world's best jazz musicians, one of the all-time classic pieces of jazz music, and an enthusiastic crowd of thousands? You get the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra playing John Coltrane's A Love Supreme in Ann Arbor, along with a first half of the program playing songs in tribute to Detroit jazz musicians.

It was a wonderful night to be a jazz fan! The performance was just fantastic.

After the concert, we walked to a little deli near Hill Auditorium called Cosi, and had hot chai and hot apple cider, along with a tray of fresh fruit, warm pita bread, and brei cheese; then when we were still hungry a try of cucumber slices, warm pita triangles, and hummus. It was all healthy and quite good, and so far my stomach is happy with it.

When we got home, I talked to Bill about his cap, gown, and graduation announcement order, filled out the forms, and wrote the check. I guess the time is getting close to his graduation...January is nearly gone, and he will be done with school in may and will graduate the first weekend of June...

Back to work tomorrow...four nights, then off to Kalamazoo for the weekend...
