I took an untimed morning run today; just as well, because my right knee was irritable and my whole body felt resentful about the bitter -1° weather. Hot breakfast, coffee and another coffee, and working on both a homily for tomorrow (on Moses’s face, not on Paul’s ill-conceived metaphor based on Moses’s face) and my parish presentation on Incarnation. Doing the background work for the Incarnation talk gets me excited and voluble, so I have to steel myself to focus on tomorrow’s homily.
