My pastor isn't like that at all! We have separate lines for the different priests at our penance services, so if you get in a slow line, you're stuck.
After four years, I know who the talkative priests are, so I can avoid them if I'm in a hurry. I usually make an appointment on a weekday with our pastor, for myself and the four relevant children. Der Prinz sometimes goes to the penance services; his sins are up to him!
He's been very helpful to my daughter while she's away at college. She Emails him for help and advice wrt arguing with Protestants!
He didn't know until I fell in with him after choir practice one night that we were recent converts (he also didn't know about all the brouhaha in the ECUSA that caused us to leave - I hope I didn't shock him. But as I told him, I'd given up snarking about the Episcopalians for Lent . . . and managed to hold off for One Whole Day . . . ) But my daughter is imbued with Convert Zeal. She drove in from college Friday night and said, "Let's go to the 40 Hours Adoration!" I'm nursing a bad cold and laryngitis (which scares me - I haven't ever lost my voice before that I can remember, and I have a wedding to sing at on the 17th . . .) but I said what the heck, if she wants to go we're going to go! So we did. It was worth the trip, met lots and lots of friends there and spent a very pleasant quiet hour before the Blessed Sacrament. The Two Hearts Alliance had a table with all sorts of freebies out front - my daughter got an Irish finger rosary, which she'd never seen before, and a bunch of Useful Pamphlets.
