Okay…technically tomorrow. But in less than four hours and before I go to bed tonight, so tonight.
A little before midnight I’m going down to City Hall with friends to take in the smiles and tears and wedding couture and to celebrate the history in the making that will be the first several dozen gay marriages in Minneapolis.
There are marriage ceremonies happening all over Minnesota, including St. Paul, Rochester, Duluth and even at the Mall of America!
Other friends are heading down to the Minnesotans United Married At Midnight party at Wilde Roast Cafe
I’m so excited. And it feels surreal. It’s just…it’s HERE! After all of the controversy, the legal and political fights, the heart-wrenching personal stories, the injustices…People are GETTING MARRIED.
TONIGHT!
