I used to lie between cool, clean sheets at night after I'd had a bath, after I had washed my hair and scrubbed my knuckles and finger-nails and teeth. Then I could lie quite still in the dark with my face to the window with the trees in it, and talk to God.

So a Swedish massage is not going to do it! I need to know that they're in there with their thumbs and moving stuff around.
