lavandarlizard2So, at 1701, Pacific Daylight Time today, Clerks Offices in California can begin issuing marriage licenses for *everyone*. That's EVERYONE. Men and men, women and men, women and women. Equally. ^______^ And maybe I'll live long enough to see my brother's state of residence follow suit.
Don't forget to congratulate George Takai! ^___^
If you're a California resident, register to vote in November, so we can send that stinking stupid "defense of 'marriage'" thing back to the trash heap where it belongs. ^____^
And yes, I'm done nagging now. ^__^ For the moment.... ^.O
“Don’t know why you were so weird about showing me this; I think it’s cool!”
“Well… It is a kind of an acknowledgement…”
“Uh… Wufei… I’m sitting in a wheel chair. I have no feeling and no directed movement in my legs; what makes you think an acknowledgement will bother me?”
“….”
“Fuckin’ crap… Don’t do that, man… *Please* don’t do that! Ah, shit… dammit, Fei… Here. Blow. C’mon… please don’t… not for me…”
“…sorry… I just…”
“Never mind, man. Show me the rest of the brochures. Do you really think this would fit on our stairs?”
“I measured…”
“Now I’m doubly glad we’ve got such wide staircases. I didn’t know they had stuff like this; I thought we were going to have to swap all the rooms around. I don’t suppose they have some engineering details… I’d love to see how it works. The ad copy is kind of vague.”
“I imagine most of their customers don’t care how it works.”
“Heh. You’re probably right about that. Hm… I wonder if we could do the basement stairs, too; that flight is kind of narrow.”
“I will call them tomorrow and ask. Perhaps they can send an engineer to speak with you.”
“Ah, man! That would be so cool! Thanks, Wufei! You’re fantastic! Oh. Crap. Here; you don’t want to get snot on your shirt.”

Date: 2008-06-16 06:25 pm (UTC)I never have seen what the problem was with gays and lesbians getting married. It's a civil contract; that should be available to anyone. O.o And if other people want to go dress it up with frills and a big church whoopee thing, fine by me, but the church ain't the one issuing that license, and the church ain't the one opening the legal doors. >.<
My marriage certainly didn't implode because of gay marriage; I don't imagine you and Bri are too concerned about that either. ^____^ So you really have to wonder what all those fuckwits who object are afraid of... O.O Roving bands of lesbians with marriage licenses? Gay men in matching tuxedos?
I still have hope for the Bro, but not as long as he lives in Texass. >_>;

Date: 2008-06-17 12:35 am (UTC)Saw that! ^___^ I've met people around here who've been together over twenty years - some over thirty! One couple is just so "Birdcage" it's hysterical. And they each have kids and grandkids! ^___^
