Taylor Swift sounded the best she's ever sounded live. Which, of course, means she was lip syncing because she sounds terrible live.

And someone mentioned she looked classy... she was dressed like she lived in in the mountains... not sure your definition of classy.

Here's my beef.

When I get married to my partner, I'll be married in my church who supports us before God, family, etc.

Your church may disagree and not recognize it or my church. But I will. My friends will. My family will. Ok. But it still doesn't matter. I'll still be married. I won't have a license until the government figures out what it wants to do.

But I'll STILL BE MARRIED. Again, you can disagree and call it what you want. But when someone asks me, "Are you single?" I'll say "I'm married", not "I'm domestically partnered" or "I'm civil unioned".

I'll only ever say, "I'm married". Fight over the word all you want, but it'll be the way gays will use it regardless if we get the federal protections or not. They will come in time.

I guess I'll hold out hope for Kentucky!

My partner and I approached our pastor about getting married in our church a couple weeks ago. We're not engaged, but we want the conversation to start. Because it's a baptist church, it'll need talked about for about 6 months before any kind of votes happen (which congregational voting is a central piece to baptist polity). It's the last thing that our church hasn't done to be welcoming. We just celebrated our 4th year together last month.

Here's hoping. :)

It's a pretty sad state of affairs in Kentucky.

Trust me, I live here.

Well, the headline makes sense. I don't see anyone arguing with the closeted evangelicals agreeing with the frothy mixture.

In other news, I've been able to safely ride my scooter for most of December and 7 out of the 10 days of the new year so far with no threat to ice or snow. I've even worn shorts out as it's been above 60 degrees for some of those days.
