Marco and Danny got married yesterday at City Hall in Palm Springs. They looked very lovely in their ivory and powder-blue tuxes.
Donielle and I were the witnesses.
Now they are two husbands.
We ate at Al Dente in Palm Springs. A plate was shattered symoblically. The tiramisu was delicious. Then we came home and relaxed with our friends.
Pontifica and I spent the weekend approaching gay & lesbian partiers at PRIDE, begging for donations to fight the anti-gay marriage initiative appearing on the ballot this November.
Now, I'm feeling a bit bummed. Even though we raised a fair amount of money, this is money we could have raised (and maybe should have raised) for Barack Obama's campaign--exactly why this initiative is so royally f-d up. If I fight for the rights of my own community, will it lead to a John McCain presidency? Holy Disaster of a Lifetime, Batman!
And speaking of Batman...
Please vote to give this puppy a home
(and the right to marry his hound-master!)
This weekend is L.A.'s PRIDE weekend, and Pontifica and I will be out at the Equality For All booth, gathering signatures from folks who'll pledge to fight that lame busybody of a ballot initiative--you know, the one that aims to rewrite California's sacred constitution.
Come visit us and show your support for equal rights!
