I had intended to go to Iceland on holiday this week.\u00a0 Unfortunately the gods decided otherwise, and Hecate breathed her poisoned breath on me on Saturday.\u00a0 However all things work together for good, for those who love God, and no doubt this is for the best.<\/p>\n
This leaves me here,\u00a0wasting my time\u00a0at home, and feeling too washed out even to do anything or read much.\u00a0 Curiously this variant of the annual scourge doesn’t involve large numbers of tissues.\u00a0 It should be over soon, I think.<\/p>\n
One thing I have done (finally) is to forward the proof corrections for the Origen book to the typesetter.\u00a0 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.\u00a0 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.\u00a0 So really there’s nothing to be gained by me repeating that same message for every page.\u00a0 So I have passed\u00a0that one\u00a0to the typesetter.<\/p>\n
Back to the sofa for me, I think.\u00a0 It’s not cold, and the sunlight is cheering, but the virus leaves one feeling so weak!\u00a0 I shall lie there and read twitter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
