I haven’t gathered al the pics together yet but I rocked the LA march with some good friends. It was unbelievably hot. Unfortunately the wife had to work. A buddy and I were pulled out of the crowed and asked to say a few words for the Dr. Phill show.

There were so many great signs. We were a wee bit late so we were able to get signs from people who were leaving the rally. I got one from a man that said “the rainbow looses its magic when a color is missing” As soon as I get the pictures I will post my favorite signs.

All I posted were some photos and they’re not even on flickr, not yet anyway. But we did attend the Houston rally. Here’s the link:

I wrote about the Boston MA rally at http://www.thetotalfemme.com — it was a wonderful afternoon, despite a slight misunderstanding on my part about one of the chants….

It does feel like the energy is changing.

Are you telling me that adorableness doesn’t occur 24/7 in the LD household?? I can’t believe it

I interrupt this really fantastic check-in with breaking news:

“Brown urges state high court to hear anti-Prop. 8 suits,” Bob Egelko, San Francisco Chronicle, 17 Nov 2008.

And that would be good breaking news.

Now back to the sharing, which has been really wonderful. (And SJnky, I’ve had my camera w/ me off & on throughout the day, laying in wait for a suitable burst of adorableness. Will post in the comments as soon as (a) suitable opportunity has afforded itself, and then (b) the time to post it does. Thanks for the encouragement. )

I blogged about the Atlanta event, http://lizawashere.com/2008/11/15/opposing-prop-8-and-supporting-glbt-families-in-georgia/, as did my buddy Dave. He has more pictures up on his site — http://www.certified.vvcradio.com/?p=68 — my camera pooped out after 2. Incidentally, in his pics you can see the fine, welcoming, and incredibly supportive Presbyterian church we attend in the background — a church that first came to civil rights renown when it opened doors and kitchens to serve hundreds of the mourners who came to Atlanta for Dr. Martin Luther King’s funeral.

The biggest concern in Georgia is that we will be the target of an Arkansas like adoption ban. Our legislature is only in session Jan-March, so we should have Josie’s adoption fully settled before that could happen (knock wood/pray/hope) but it would be a terrible hit to the rest of our community.
