We done with Angie-gate yet? I mean the gate that wasn't a gate. Maybe it's the adrenalin rush after Adam has an event that rearranges our brain cells in a 'down' mode? Thanks for putting this in context, Mys*&@^#r! May it rest in pieces... I thought we'd at least get one day of GLAAD bliss but seems we are a restless bunch....#medsanyone? \ ETA: ALMOST AT GROUND ZERO for Adam's twitter!!! And a huge congrats to Minnesota!!! #onestateatatime

I had to come here to celebrate. Minnesota's senate just approved marriage equality! The governor has pledged to sign it into law tomorrow! I wasn't able to join the crowd at the capitol but I listened to much of the deliberations on the radio. It was eyeopening to hear the arguements from both sides. I thought I wasn't in America when an ammendment to the bill was proposed (and thankfully voted down) allowing any individual to refuse service to another if they held deep belief against their marriage, then one senator urged others to vote, not with their constituents, but with their Creator. But the arguements for it were so heartfelt. One senator choked back tears as he said his adopted sister, 100years ago, would have been fighting for her rights as a woman, 50 years ago would have been fighting for her rights as a black person, and today was fighting for her rights as a gay woman. Another said his biracial marriage would still not be legal if not for past lawmakers voting to do the right thing, just like he was going to do today. Minnesota is the most undiverse and religious state I have ever lived, everyone goes to church it seems. But it is also so progressive! I am proud to have made this my home! This is happening guys! It is just the begining!! Yea for Minnesota. The change is inevitable. Even the older generation legislators, if they are honest with themselves, have to see the writing on the wall. It's all good.

I just read Momtomany's wonderful recap. I had to laugh at her metaphor of Adam as a monarch butterfly. Do you know that every four generations, a super generation is produced that is bigger, stronger and more amazing. So definitely, Adam is the king of the super monarch butterflies!!!

Rhode Island, Delaware and Minnesota in the past month. As of today, 12 state governments -- Massachusetts, Connecticut, Iowa, Vermont, New Hampshire, New York, Maine, Maryland, Washington, Rhode Island, Delaware and Minnesota, along with the District of Columbia, the Coquille Indian Tribe, the Suquamish tribe, and the Little Traverse Bay Bands of Odawa Indians have legalized same-sex marriage.

Glad they are supporting the push to 2 million.
