Thursday, June 21st, 2012 10:23 pm...and we're still pleased with the outcome.
What? MyGuy's an engineer, and I'm all up in the geek thought patterns.
In other words: thirty-two years of legal marriage. I needed health insurance. I felt then, and now, that the state should get out of the marriage business. I'd prefer a civil union open to everyone, and then a sanctified marriage provided by the religious institution in that institution's rules. Even if civil unions prevail, they're still the only three-way contract where two parties don't even know what they're signing up for.
Evidence of MyGuy's wonderfulness: he hypnotizes fish!
