Everybody's getting married!

A friend's personal account of volunteering among all the joyous grooms and brides at the San Francisco courthouse. A joyous read.

It was a really wonderful time -- and even better, now, to know that those marriages *do* stand and *are* legal, after four years of court fights.

Now if we can keep the haters from amending the state constitution to define marriage as cross-gender, we'll be golden.

Well, actually, they're all going to have to re-marry. Santa Clara County is already calling for volunteers.

It's not just San Francisco any more. Any two-bit logging town or eye-glazing suburb can host a same-sex wedding. We can go to Pismo Beach or Happy Camp, and get married. Death Valley or Mount Shasta, and get married. Married in Yreka, married in Aromas, married in City of Industry or Bel Air. We could even get married in Bakersfield.

This is a general "we." I still can't marry you. But maybe someday.
