Time Flies ...

Has it been a whole week since my last post? Six days! Time flies when you're having fun.

And, indeed, I am having fun. I'm overjoyed by the rush to City Hall to San Francisco, and by the approaching deadline for marriage equality in Massachusetts, and by the sight of right-wing conservatives who are running around like headless chickens because they're just starting to realize that they can no longer expect the government to reinforce their antigay biases.

I am having fun because my partner and I are now talking about marriage -- a conversation that would have been hypothetical just a few months ago.

I am having fun because I understand that history is unfolding before my eyes. I want to remember every headline, every story, every little detail so that I can tell my children and grandchildren that, yes, I was there when America truly became a land of opportunity, freedom and equality.

I am having fun, and I hope this fun never ends.
