Bloggers of Unusual Size

Many thanks to the lovely Dawn Eden for her kind words. I really enjoyed the party and was glad to have been invited. I must say, though, that the whole "petite powerhouse" thing is somewhat overstated. She's a powerhouse, sure. But she's not that small. On the low end of the normal range, maybe, but definitely within the range. I was expecting someone the size of a teacup chihuahua.

Father Sibley, on the other hand, was much bigger than I'd imagined. I'm taller than all the priests at St. Mary's except for Father Kalisch, so I think I'd just begun to assume that the clergy, like the Silent Service, had some kind of height cap. I was, needless to say, wrong. The good father is also full of sage thoughts on the underratedness of SEC football (though I still think he's too sanguine about Kentucky's prospects) and on the similarities between Christian Science and Gnosticism.

All-in-all, a great trip, well worth missing poker night for.
