We Won!!!

It was an unusual day for November. It was warm and sunny so Kathleen and I decided to have brunch in a restaurant's outdoor patio. Even though the service was lacking, there was a distinct shift in attitude towards us. We were the victors in a town where elections are everything (well, maybe for only 2 to 4 more years at most.) And being gay and middle-age probably meant we had something to do with getting marriage equality passed (even if only in a small way).

We were happy and we talked about politics like real citizens do who have interests in our democracy and high hopes for our first lesbian Senator Tammy Baldwin. Her bio looks ultra-liberal and she's been in the political game for a while so she's seasoned and knows all the moves. We wish Senator Baldwin the best of luck!

And thank gawd about Obama. We did it. We all voted. And made it happen. We won. 

(So now I'm tired and am going to rest for a while. Because Thanksgiving is just around the corner and I've got to work on feeling grateful and thanking everyone for their love and kindness. See ya soon.)
