I am doing a sexy little dance in my office chair right now, because:

Same-sex couples have a constitutional right to marry, the California Supreme Court ruled [today].

According to the court, “In contrast to earlier times, our state now recognizes that an individual’s capacity to establish a loving and long-term committed relationship with another person and to care for and raise children does not depend upon the individual’s sexual orientation, and, more generally, that an individual’s sexual orientation — like a person’s race or gender — does not constitute a legitimate basis upon which to deny or withhold legal rights.”

I look forward to attending several fabulous destination weddings for my gay and lesbian friends over the next few years. (Then again, maybe I’ll finally find the right girl…)
