Gay Marriage Legalized in California!

I am so proud to be a Californian today (even more so than normal, and I am usually pretty obnoxious about it)! This morning, the California Supreme Court declared the state’s ban on same-sex marriage is unconstitutional. Yes! It is about damn time all couples are allowed the same rights. I got a little verklempt reading the news just now and virtually high-fiving my friends back in San Francisco. I can’t wait until I can celebrate the (legally recognized) marriage of two brides or two grooms who are giving this forever thing a shot just like everyone else.

Today is a huge victory, not just for gay marriage, but for love and tolerance and all those crazy things California hippies love so much. For once, I can give my fighting words a rest and enjoy this triumph. Congratulations everyone, and keep up the good fight!
