Massachusetts high court rules that gays are entitled to marry. Yay! ::throws confetti::
Depending on what other states do, this probably doubles my chances of living in Boston some day. I can put up with a subway that doesn't run all night for a government that lets me marry who I damned well choose. Of course, this is the day after Ohio voted to ban same sex unions, but even that can't kill my Whoot! And how are YOU today, Reverand Phelps?

So, Kerry, huh? Yeah, that'll do nicely. I was hovering between him and Dean in the first place, and plumped for Dean on the theory that he had contagious energy more than any major policy issue. I will probably still vote for him in the primary if he stays in the race. But I'll happily back Kerry in the general if he takes the nomination, and not just for anybody-but-Bush reasons.
And not that it's much consolation for Dean, but even if he never pulls further ahead than he is today, he performed yeoman service in drawing the nebulous "character" fire, so that Kerry or whoever the eventual frontrunner turns out to be doesn't come into November with that many more months of snide implications ringing in everyone's ears.

*grin* Also, thank you.
Tabitha was from the tabby kittiguana from email. Because my brain works in mysterious ways. But I think it's a good name. :) And yes, iguanas that are not given to jailbreaks are a thing I might get used to.
I think a periodically green Iggy would be reproachful, yet cute. Also "it's your turn to dye the cat" arguments have great comedic potential.

Date: 2004-02-05 12:35 am (UTC)I am planning to panhandle for B&Js from the Scoop Shop in Leicester Square. Just so you know. They have 'Full Vermonty' and 'Honey I'm Home', and dammit, I want my ice cream.
I can utterly see where that name comes from, and yet still, I must name an iguana that. A cute iguana who will hopefully remain female past the age where they can be sexed. But I think you're right, you might; iguanas have a lot more personality than most reptiles, once you get used to them. Also, they spend a lot of time Sitting Still and Basking. Which is an appealing thing for a reptile to do.
Oooooooooooo, yes.
"I am having a bad day! You won't let me have a snake! DYE THE CAT!"
"It's your cat!"
"You only say she's my cat when it's time to dye her!"
"CATS AREN'T SUPPOSED TO BE GREEN!!!"
...yeah.
