In an update to running news, I have been taking time off from running since my left knee has been complaining, and I mistrust the treadmills here, so out of an abundance of caution I’m letting my conference walking count for my exercise. That’s abundant walking, no running.
The SBL conference has been great, except it’s overrun with young people, even middle-aged people, whom I don’t recognise (and obviously they don’t recognise me). What has the academic world come to, I ask you? Home tomorrow.
Much to think about, and increased… not quite ‘urgency’, but energy toward my hermeneutics project, and possibly a book about parables, and there’s always Margaret’s and my collaboration on ‘The Goodness of the Bad, the Badness of he Good’. Looking forward to retirement, at least, if not to maybe getting a little writing done during my parish work.
