Melody panics...

Ok here I sit at my desk having just dealt with a most unusual pastoral issue... I was just wondering what to write on my blog today when Melody landed on a chair just behind me: "Nai, I'm really freaked out now." Nai: "What's happened?" Mel: "Well, like, I've just realised for the first time that your pupils in your eyes are just HOLES?!?" The conversation turned blonde... Nai also got freaked out and wondered if you could look into someone's eyes with a torch and see their brain!! Mel said that she had thought the same thing until Steve pointed out that you have a retina. Mel's greatest fear was that her eyes were just dark, therefore inside her head must be pitch black also! It was a very scary thought... I wondered if there might be an army of ants working inside your head with torches and Mel said that God had probably installed a network of fairy lights in hers.
The next blonde stage of the conversation somehow moved on to what God must look like, being ageless (I was wondering what colour His eyes were and Mel said that everyone assumed that He looked old, but actually He was ageless). I asked Jeeves how you can look ageless but the useless butler didn't know! Grrr... Steve got spiritual and correctly pointed out that you cannot apply a human logic to something spiritual. Ah yes. Good point. Does God use botox? Does He have a purple rinse?? Hmmm... Curious...
Neil Bennetts was confused, Louise told us to get back to the funny farm and Mel, somewhat freaked, returned to her seat. Mel comes out with these disturbing realities sometimes (I seem to remember something about blacmange one time...?!) but it keeps us on our toes.
Or maybe working at Trinity does something funny to your head?? Please advise.

Ah Girlies, let me take this opportunity to reassure you...yes the pupil of your eye is just a hole that allows old men to look at your retinas for way too long while breathing all over you with last nights curry breath (well, that's what all Optometrists do...right...?!!). there are no fairy lights in there...although for Mel I might make an exception...but it is the only visible bit of your brain (without surgery...or an RTA...obviously) - so if anyone suggests blondes are brainless just get down to the opticians and ask if you have a retina...that should make their day...trust me :) any further questions just let me know...I can even let you use my Ophthalmoscope to take a look yourself...or maybe not!
