thistlechaserYesterday I ranted, today I'll rave! How's this for a great thing?
The city of San Francisco marry gay couple(s)!
I believe that news story isn't up to date, as it states only one couple. On the radio while driving back from lunch I heard couple*s*.
How's this for sweet? Phyllis Lyon, 79, and Del Martin, 83, were the first two married. They've been together for 51 years! How many couples, no matter their sexes, can say that?
I ♥ San Francisco mayor Gavin Newsom!

Goes to Supreme Court.
Or, alternatively, the state is forced to acknowlege it.
Either way, progress. I am way the fuck psyched.
