Proud of our Female Bishops

Dear Jack,

Well we visited St. Luke's again. It was really nice. A lot of the issues that Michael and I find important they find important... like Jesus Christ and the Trinity. It is such a relief to realize we have possibly found a real place to call home.

I thought I'd post a picture of the pride of the Anglican Communion, or what should be the pride of the Anglican Communion. It's a shame it's only the current bishops, and not the retired ones too. That would be a sweet picture.

It reminds me of the poster of all the Black bishops, and there have been a lot more of them in The Episcopal Church then all the female bishops in the communion.

Last night I had a sleepless night. I had all kinds of anxious thoughts going through my head. I really couldn't get some of the thoughts out of my head. I thought about how things could have been different in College with Daniel W. and Dr. Stokes, and about how I could have done things differently at General and fought to stay better, and I thought about what I could have done to hinder Svetlana. I thought about my current situation and how I am underpaid. All in all it was not a great night sleeping.

I am so glad that today went well. Fr. Hugh's sermon on Roman's was very appropriate for my thoughts. I felt God saying that I was in the right place and to not worry.

Hit Me Again

Dear Jack,

So once again I have been bit with the blogging bug insisting that I should write about life and get some thoughts out of my head. I honestly wish it were as simple as Harry Potter, where I could take them out in strands and let them rest in a pool of memories. Instead i tend to let them overpower my dreams and cause me to have broken sleeps as nostalgia and reliving the memories haunt me.

Since writing last, a lot has happened. I worked for Episcopal Migration Ministries through February. I had a really nasty departure from them, and can't say I am completely over how I was treated. I will not take time to discuss the issues, but let's just say that when the job ended, I did not feel bad for it ending, only in that my Supervisor had won against me.

Regardless, I am in a much better healthier place to work. I work for a law firm and a connected ESL school (Hello World). Additionally, I am volunteering on a political campaign for my boss (Yetta Kurland 2009). M3ch12l and I are still together, and still living in Astoria. Not much has changed there except that we are busy with a lot of organizations (QLGPC, IntegrityNYC, St. Bart's Church, St. Bart's LGBTQ Fellowship, OUTAstoria, and I'm sure I left one out).

Our parents are all doing well, and life, for the most part, is very good.

That's about all for now. If all goes well, I'll blog much more often.
