Happy Anniversary!
Today is my second wedding anniversary.
We got married at city hall in San Francisco during the brief period that they were married same sex couples back in 2004. I remember when they started issuing licenses that I thought that a judge would put a stop to it within hours. But then on Friday, February 13th, I came back to work from lunch at the judge had not made a ruling and wasn’t going to until the following Tuesday and city hall had stated that they would marry everybody who was in line fy 4PM that day so I called Jeff and told him to leave work early and I went over to city hall to wait for him. It was crazy there and we didn’t get home until very late but we had a new shiny marriage certificate when we did. Of course those licenses were invalidated a couple of months later but I don’t think it will be too long before we’re exchanging vows again in san francisco city hall. And the next time we’ll already have the rings.
