Honestly, we can't not hug, hold hands, etc in public. We're kinda sad that way. We just... drift together.

Re: Same Sex Marriage -
I've pissed off a lot of gay rights activists and gay friends by saying the marriage thing is not the big thing to me. Being able to share the same rights as married couples is. A certificate from some outside source isn't going to change how I feel about her, but I would like to know I can go to her hospital room, have a say in what happens to her, and have legal rights with regards to our kids. When we flew overseas with them earlier this year, we had to have their father write and sign a waiver and they still did not understand why I wanted to sit next to my kids. Who knows what would have happened if something happened to E or the boys anywhere along the trip? When that can be sorted out, then I'll celebrate.

Okay, soapbox moment. Sorry about that. *is sheepish* *slinks away*
