I had intended to go to Iceland on holiday this week. Unfortunately the gods decided otherwise, and Hecate breathed her poisoned breath on me on Saturday. However all things work together for good, for those who love God, and no doubt this is for the best.
This leaves me here, wasting my time at home, and feeling too washed out even to do anything or read much. Curiously this variant of the annual scourge doesn’t involve large numbers of tissues. It should be over soon, I think.
One thing I have done (finally) is to forward the proof corrections for the Origen book to the typesetter. There’s a general problem in the Greek fragments with the bold formatting, and I had intended to go through this and list the problems page by page. But a quick look today reveals that it’s a general problem, and that every page has been mis-set wherever it went to multiple columns. So really there’s nothing to be gained by me repeating that same message for every page. So I have passed that one to the typesetter.
Back to the sofa for me, I think. It’s not cold, and the sunlight is cheering, but the virus leaves one feeling so weak! I shall lie there and read twitter.
