I’m getting married

May 15, 2008 News

This morning’s decision by the California Supreme Court means I no longer have to be an unwed father. And for a change, even our Governor is onboard:

I respect the court’s decision and as governor, I will uphold its ruling. As I have said in the past, I will not support an amendment to the constitution that would overturn this state supreme court ruling.

Granted, he could have simply signed his name on bills when I asked him, but better late than never.

His quote refers to the dark cloud on the horizon, a ballot initiative to amend the state constitution, which is pretty much the only way to overrule the court at this point. But that’s tomorrow’s fight.

As it stands, I’m planning on getting hitched this summer. It’s been a very long engagement.
