Prop 8 and my birthday!!

Today was my 26th birthday!!  Holy crappers.

The past few weeks have been insanely hectic because of our upcoming wedding, so I never really got to have the whole shebang with the birthday cake and the blowing out of the candles.  And neither did J, because his birthday was 3 weeks ago and we didn't have a chance to properly celebrate that either!  So I guess our wedding cake will have to do for 2 birthdays and a wedding!  Yuuummm =D

So, what made my birthday this year extra special?  Proposition 8 was overturned today!!!!  For those of who don't know, about 2 years ago the state of California legalized gay marriage.  Only to have a extremely biased and faulty election overturn the legalization ruling.  Therefore the right to gay marriage got taken away and swept under a rug.

Well, I guess they didn't sweep it under far enough because, today, Proposition 8 was overturned!!!!!!!!!!

Today, all people in California are allowed to love equally, regardless of their sex/gender/identity.

Today was my birthday, but I am so lucky to get to celebrate a ruling far more important than my birthday with millions of people!

Congratulations are in order for everyone <3
