Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I agree with all those who like the plan, Cashmere, I hope the family drama lessens for you soon.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

What a mess, Cashmere. You make a good plan.

I know the weather sucks, and everything closes down early, and we are still subject to the most random blue laws, but GODDAMN I love my state

hmmm, that challenge would also stand in the way of a Federal recognition of gay marriage also, though wouldn't it?

Are there any other federal laws relating to marriage? I think of it as a state thing anyway.

I think most states recognize marriages and divorces performed in other states. Well, the heterosexual marriages anyway.

my recollection is that there is something federal other than DOMA which standardizes what the rights of marriage provided a spouse. thus the whole mess with why domestic partnerships are not an equal alternative - there is no standardization of what rights are granted under a DP.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

"With a branded line of make-up from Marvel, girls will be able to feel as if they are going from ordinary to extraordinary just like the super hero characters in the stories, "

Yeah, that made me so ragey, I can't even write a coherent letter to Marvel to tell them to kiss my disposable income goodbye.
