family is both a blessing and a curse. of course we already know this...but its one of those things that never becomes less painful no matter how many times we rediscover it. tonight was just another reminder of the multitude of generations that manage to live together. and i wonder...will they ever really be able to understand one another. and the answer is of course not.
elton john was married today. and sweet tante (aunt) rose-marie scuttled into the kitchen to tell us the news. then she proceeded to ask us the status of gay marriage in the u.s. we informed her that those who were married during our brief stint of liberalism still remain so. but it is not possible to do so anymore. she then punctuated the severity of our answer with a resounding "good." which struck me in the pit of my stomach. tonight was also one of those nights that searingly reminded me of what i am. reminded me of my deviant nature...that i am not whole. this is terrible thing to have to rediscover. and i have to come to terms with the fact that its something that i will have to stumble upon for the rest of my life.
