yahoo! alerts (CA= vote NO on 8!!)

so, about 'say.... 7 years ago i became a melissa fan, and created the only yahoo! alert ever.. and it was anything MLE related... so i get them, read the headline, and close the box. Sometimes the headlines are interesting, and I'll read them. Sometimes they are a mention of her in reference to an event, whatever. But lately, they are all about "etheridge to wed girlfriend" and i know tammy made some blog about this topic.

but... the statement the media is making now is pissing me off. basically... they are turning a couple who has been MARRIED for years invalidated somehow because the law wouldnt recognize that marriage. because that poor couple had to bend over sideways and backwards and maintain a legal team for every move just to try and create something that was almost equal to marriage, yet which can always be argued as against public policy.

so now, CA has decided it is AGAINST THE CONSTITUTION to discriminate and deny any citizen the equal rights guaranteed to others.... and some blind ignorant FAMILY ppl have decided to modify an 150 or so yr instrument to combine DISCRIMINATION AND HATE into it... something that even 100 years ago people knew was not what america stood for.... and now the stupid media is enhancing the unequal treatment of homosexuals by STRIPPING the wife label.

i feel the same way in my life.

suddenly, i cant say wife because NOW you want to say i can get that legal document..but you know what.. NOW i already got married and do not feel like i need to go get married AGAIN becuase this time u want to acknowledge it..NOPE..i want MY MARRIAGE to be validated!!! so... i sure hope PROPOSITION 8 DOES NOT pass... because I plan to fight the fact that my marriage existed prior to May 2008. SO... please.. VOTE NO ON PROP 8....

and media.. can you please give her back the label she has had for many years..they are wife and wife... yes.... thats ok.... and look, nothing has changed in YOUR life. gay people will always be around, gay people will always be in relationships, and gay people should always have the right as others to enter into marriage which is a legal status and has nothing to do with what HATE your religion PERSUADES you is ok. :(

MARRIAGE, now available in gay...

Its not gay marriage...its just marriage BY gays.... as opposed to hetero's... big DEAL!!

heck ya its a big deal!

its amazing
waiting
anticipation
for the opinion
i got the email saying it was a victory
before i was able to open the opinion
and when i opened the opinion
it said 172 pages
oh boy!!
i read more of that opinion
than i read my con law all year
but it was the best opinion
i have
EVER
read.

it is a perfect analysis.
everything we have been taught
every issue
addressed
every rule
applied
correctly
equally
fairly
JUSTICE

strict scrutiny
its about time
seperate is not equal
clear as can be
and here
in my home state
CALIFORNIA LOVE
equality
prevails.

and now apparently, june 14
i guess we will go get a license
one year, 4 days later
ill get that license
that will tell the state
these two are married
no different
than any
other
married
before.

and then
those
who are working
oh so tiredly
family
hypocricy
to ensure
that prejudice
continues
exists
and yet
they claim
to be
so holy
balogne
disgrace.

how can you judge
and call someone
a sinner
when
the very
act
of judging
is
a sin.
except in a court of law
then its just power

and here
finally
the CA S.CT
with all its power
stood up
declared enough
church IS seperate
from state
so take your hatred
your lies and brainwash
and keep them in your
religious business association
because in this state
due process
and
equal protection
exists.
the constitution
is the governing
law of the land
stop trying to change it
to meet ur needs.

justice prevails

wedding bells
LOVE

i never learn...

and i really should.

i dont want to say anything
talk is cheap
say all you want
its what you do that counts.

i need to go do now.

i did want to say though
apparently
i blogged how gas prices
are rising
and nothing being done
hiliary must read my blogs
cause now theres going to be
some gas holiday
sounds gross
a ploy probably
who cares
somebody
do something
take their billions in profits
and make them pay
so we dont have to
sounds good.

why?

why...

do we live in a country
where there is war
where gas prices rise and nothing is said
when children are homeless and hungry
when nothing is done

why...
meanwhile
are we in other countries
causing worse chaos
than our streets
so as to show us
how much "better" we have it
at least we have sidewalks
someone told me
one of those light bulb moments
to the perception of another

why...
do children
get to decide
what they want
and
why...
do parents
believe love
can only be shown
with $$ signs
and forget affection
discipline
and values
go much further than
an iphone.

why...
do i feel this way
and see it like this
when the masses
so many others
are blind
oblivious
and follow
seeking their happiness
buying it glass by glass
night by night
social social social
butterflies.

why...
though
am i
the one
who is happy
and free
and accepting
of my love
my faith
my days.

why...
are there always
more questions
than answers
and does that mean
my answers
get to be right
if we do not know
that they are wrong?

cheating myself

i have never felt
proud
or glad
and have neer easily
admitted
that i skate by
right on by
playing it cool
all the while
cheating myself

i have never felt
compelled
to compete
to be the best
somehow
i always knew
that was not my role
not my place
i am glad to be #2
content
i am who i am
placing top
does not change it.

i have never felt
that i was a failure
because i always knew
what i wanted
and achieved it
nonetheless.
i have made it where i am
that must mean something.

but

i have never felt
that all this time
it was me
who was being cheated
i said it
i thought
i understood it
but really
i never felt it.

**** AND NOW ****

now i know
now i realize
i can not go back
i can not change it
but i can move forward
i can learn from it.

what is lost is lost
and can not be undone
there is no undo button
in the game of life.

waking up
each day
knowing what will get done
must get done
should get done
needs to be enough.
no more hacking with my life
no more skating along.

i am to be great
i may not be top
but i will create change
i will fight hard
and
i will be dedicated
i will be committed
and i will always love.

today
this all begins
with me
within
and around
starting with
con law.

todays forecast....

i went to weather.com
as i usually do
when planning my daily attire
comfort is the ultimate goal

sinec my day will be spent at school
fullerton is the city i type in
and what does it say...

currently 63.
sunny. high 66.
abundant sunshine.

yes, abundant sunshine.
since when was that a weather forecast
and how badly to people
being rained on
snowed in
and chilling
dislike us.

i even looked up abundant in the dictionary.
a·bun·dant /əˈbʌndənt/ Pronunciation Key - Show Spelled Pronunciation[uh-buhn-duhnt] Pronunciation Key - Show IPA Pronunciation
–adjective 1. present in great quantity; more than adequate; oversufficient: an abundant supply of water.
2. well supplied; abounding: a river abundant in salmon.
3. richly supplied: an abundant land.


now i just wonder
is there truly ever
oversufficient sunshine?
more than adequate?
seriously???

who decided that there was
such a thing
as
abundant sunshine
wow.

and its a beautiful 63.
so that means
its crisp
breezy
and there is just way too much sunshine.
NO WAY!!!

sounds like a beautiful
cali day!!!!

mouth

by merril bainbridge

I feel like I've been blown apart
There are pieces here
I don't know where they go
I don't know where they go

Kiss me on my salty lips
I bet you feel a little crazy
But for me
We'll be famous on TV

Chorus
Would it be my fault if I could turn you on?
Would I be so bad if I could turn you on?
When I kiss your mouth, I wanna taste it
Turn you upside down, don't wanna waste it

I jump on you, you jump on me
You push me out and
Even though you know I love you
I'd be inclined to slap you in the mouth

When I kiss your salty lips
You will feel a little crazy
But for me
I'll be famous on TV

Chorus x2

Now, will it be my fault if I
Take your love and throw it wide
You might restrain me
But could you really blame me

And you will feel you're blown apart
All the pieces there
Will fit to make you whole
And I know where they go

Chorus

When I kiss your mouth, I wanna taste it
Turn you upside down, don't wanna waste it
x2
