Christmas...

What did everyone do for Christmas?

[sam]

Hung out with my girlfriend's family - my first - and enjoyed a rainy Christmas in CA!

Sounds like fun... what was the most fun you had?

Unfortunantly, my car is in the shop, and I didn't have a way to visit the man I'm dating (I'm not sure if we boyfriends, by definition, yet, but we are definitely close to it).

Otherwise, just visited with family, friends, and my church.

Sam,
So happy to hear your news. Would love to see the ring!!! Absolutely cool. I love it when couples get married. I love to show the world that true love does happen among us GLBT people. I was not very romantic when I proposed to my wife. We had been in the closet for so long that we didn't know marriage could happen. So I was coming out of Barnes and Noble after having been in the gay/lesbian section, and saw this book called, "Why you should give a damn about gay marriage" and it gave me the idea to propose. So in front of the store, I called my girlfriend and said, "What do you think if we got married?" and she said, "Can we?" and I said, "In Canada, we can" and she said, "Let's do it" so we did. Sept. 11, 2004 in Niagara Falls, Canada overlooking the falls. It was simply breathtaking. We had a Unitarian minister from St. Catherine's officiate and now we have a real license from Canada. It is cool. and really gives us the sense of permanency. Anyway, send us a picture of your ring. And God bless you and give you and your soon to be wife a long, happy life.

That's great that you got married in Canada! My girlfriend and I are a little backwards in the marriage department. We got a domestic partnership this past June at Sacramento's Pride and then we got engaged. We do hope to get married officially someday, but there are other things we need to do first - like taking trips around the world. Hope you and your wife are enjoying your marital bliss!

I conducted my church’s Christmas service and had brunch with some friends, and of course I spent lots of time with my dog’s and cat!

I spent time with relatives. I ate too much. But I always eat too much when I am with my relatives.

Dh and I spent the day with his family in warm sunny Austin TX, so we sat outside on the back patio and did next to nothin' all day. Then we all went to King Kong at night. It was a pretty decent Christmas!
