So, to end my day, which wasn't stellar to begin with (for no particular reason - things went fine, it just wasn't a great day)?
1) I've lost my keys. I first missed them after dinner and I know I had them when I ran to get a Bible for Taize, so they ought to be by the mailboxes or in the chapel or refectory, or in my room. But I can't find them. I am at least into my room for now, though.
2) A friend called to tell me that she's about to restart the ordination process for the third time. The problem? Mostly that she's a lesbian. Not partnered, even (no, it shouldn't make a difference, but it sometimes does), but out. She was about to be licensed (she's Amer. Bapt., not Episcopalian) this month, but now she's got to restart.
So I'm frustrated with myself, and angry at the church. An excellent end to the day.

It is so difficult. And in ABC culture it is massively frustrating if you have been turned down. Is she being turned down at the regional level or at the congregational?
