Finally breaking the fever.
Oh. My. God.
If you haven't seen "My Life Without Me" (I had never heard of it before today), then you should. It's about this poor woman with a husband and two kids who has two months to live. She makes a list of the things she's going to do before she dies, and does them. She has this amazing relationship with her husband, in spite of everything...I don't know whether it was the casting or the dialogue or something else, but I really believed they were in love. That's what I want, someday.
So I cried a lot. Sat around the house all day being sick. Read part of "Savage Inequalities." I'm finally feeling a little bit better.
Last night in my sick stooper, I could barely lock the door I was so weak. So I turned to online shopping, took the plunge and will soon have in my possession every episode of "Sex and the City," as well as a few other DVDs. It's dangerous for me to stay in the house for too long.
The constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage will be Proposition 2 on the Nov. 8 ballot. First and foremost, if you're not registered to vote, register by Oct. 11. And then vote no on Prop. 2.
Now that that's out of the way, it's a shame that we have to fight a battle we didn't choose, and to fight a battle that would keep gay marriages illegal either way, since it's already against the law. We're not even fighting for what we supposedly want, because we can't. (I say "we" because it feels wrong to say "I" when I'm obviously not the only one fighting it.) Of course, the amendment is expected to pass in this state, but it's frustrating because there's the potential to shoot it down. Truth be told, there are a lot of other fights that deserve time and attention long before marriage.
I don't know when the notion emerged that the rights of a minority should be up to a popular vote.
In other news, I forgave him today. We talked for a while. As long as I thought I hated him, I held onto that negativity and it became who I was. I couldn't go on with that anymore, so I released him. I'm embarrased it took this long, but I was hurt. It felt really good to forgive. I hope that he's happy, soon.
A new "study" says liberals dream more of homosexuality than conservatives, and conservatives have fewer dreams and more realistic dreams. Whoever conducted the study wasted a lot of time because, um, duh. Big surprise that a lot of conservatives are boring even in their dreams!
I'll stick with my plentiful, fanciful, gay dreams.
