Good day for the lesbos, baby

First thing's first: congratulations to hopemcg and meglett, who were LEGALLY MARRIED today in Niagara Falls (Canada side, of course). Congratulations, ladies! I hope the pomp and circumstance and, well, legality were as moving for you as they were for us. You guys are the greatest and I am so excited for you old married broads!

Also, it is REALLY FREAKING COLD outside. The little weather thinger on my dashboard says it is 11° but I don't believe that for a minute. Clearly it is -87481638746384°.

My smoochie and I went to see Imagine Me & You and it was so wonderful and saptacular and adorable and, dang it, they've actually got a freaking lesbian movie that is just like all of those great cheesy straight romances. No, really. It had real actors and real dialogue and real costumes and no ridiculous caricatures of people and they didn't even die or suffer any inconceivable tragedy at the end. I seriously wanted to bust into applause at the end (though I hate when people clap at movies) because SOMEONE finally realized that if you just use that same old romantic formula and include believable chick-lovers, you can have a smash movie that doesn't sell out or try to be heady and end up being bizarre. It was no cinematic masterpiece, but it was fabulous. Go see it!

Also, this is now Piper Perabo's second lesbo movie. (The first being Lost and Delirious, of course.) What is up with that? Is there something she's not telling me? (She was SO MUCH MORE adorable in this movie, though. Dear gods, but her jaunty curls were just so cute!)

p.s. The fan for our forced-air heater is still being annoying and our landlords are not calling us back. That's annoying. It's freezing, people!

Something not many people know about getting married in Canada? You can't ever get divorced (not that I'm saying they will...I'm saying...not many people know this. Neither did I.)

You can get married...anyone can get married. But you have to get divorced in your own country...you can't do it in Canada unless you're a legal resident. (THey never tell you this.) You can't get a divorce in the US unless you live in the .02% of states who actually recognize same-sex marriages.

So did you know?

I'm still married. Bastids.

There was a court case in some state (?Texas?) where a same-sex couple who had gotten a Vermont Civil Union some years ago filed for divorce. The divorce was heard in court.

It's worth a shot.
