(random) Goddammit, I'm tired of being sick.

Seriously.

In other news, I did 120 crunches today! Woot! Now my abs hurt. :p

And finally, a rare political statement:

Dear People who are ranting about how Gay Marriage destroys the Institution of Marriage,

I got married 8 years ago last month, to a man. I am a woman. Next October, my best friend will be marrying her fiance, who is also female. The impact this will have on my marriage? None. If your marriage to a member of the opposite sex is so fragile that the mere THOUGHT of two people who are the same sex marrying one another destroys it, you have other problems, not the least of which is maybe you shouldn't have gotten married in the first place. (This being in response to the stupid ads on the radio to vote Yes on Prop 1 in Maine, to ban gay marriage, which I am heartily sick of listening to.)

No love,

me

Grumpy Val is Grumpy today. However, there is a cool scene percolating in my head that may be written at lunch. This is cool.

I agree with you. Personally, I love what Wanda Sykes said... "If you don't believe in same-sex marriage, then don't marry someone of the same sex!"

I've yet to understand how two people who love each other and want to commit to each other...is a bad thing?

And how it affects anyone else's marriage? I mean, honestly. And yes, I love her quote!

Great point! What you said. :)

Hope you feel better soon!
