An ordinary party with all our favorite people would be the best gift of all.TedBearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11587674175806523596noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8139328.post-90120552814211180162009-06-07T15:48:03.914-04:002009-06-07T15:48:03.914-04:00I would add that I am glad we didn't spend a l...I would add that I am glad we didn't spend a lot of money on how we did it. It took the whole thing out of the realm of what can be bought or sold.<br />Maybe we will have the party on our first anniversary.Tony Adamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10091330901996916966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8139328.post-66123649571563762552009-06-07T15:29:22.888-04:002009-06-07T15:29:22.888-04:00Hi Fr.

I don't need marriage to validate my 24 year relationship, but I do want marriage. I want the equal treatment, legal protections and the maybe I do want a little validation. It is odd for me to type that here, I guess a part of me wants to say I am as good as them. Yeow. That is hard to read. I am out 100% with family, work (software industry), friends, neighbors, 100% out everywhere. Something inside me wants marriage, and I don't know what it is. I don't think marriage will change anything with my Overeducated Redneck husband. I want to wear a wedding ring and have it legally equal to hetero marriage. I am not sure I would want a ceremony at our church, mainly because I think I might sob all the way through it. Aw hell, I would sob if we got married at the County Clerk Office. Maybe just a wedding at our home and a party afterwards.TedBearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11587674175806523596noreply@blogger.com
