Reading

My well feels dry. Therefore, I am on a reading binge. I found a couple of Dorothy Sayers' Lord Peter Wimsey mysteries I hadn't read yet (I don't know how that happened but I am thankful nonetheless) and am on the couch with Lord Peter and his Biblical allusions.

As a related aside, when I went through the Commission on Ministry before I was made a candidate for Holy Orders, they asked me what I liked to do when I was in need of refreshment. I told them not to tell anyone but that if I wasn't feeling well, I might call in sick and spend the day with a book. I didn't say what kind of unwell I might be feeling or what kind of book. And they didn't ask.
