Eeeeee! Everyone has to check out the San Francisco Chronicle during SF Pride weekend, which begins June 25th.

Because they're doing a gay marriage wedding album! With, with, stories of how people met, and details about their weddings, and how they decided to get married, and pictures, and it's just totally going to make me go "awwwwwwww." And get all sniffly.

Because despite how depressing the news is, and despite the horrible things people say, and the protests, nothing in the news to date can make me smile and nearly cry quite as much as the story of the man who heard that they were issuing marriage licenses at City Hall at eleven am and immediate called his partner on his cell, and told him to hop on Muni right away -- they were getting married. Or the story of the hundreds of couples sitting in the rain in a line around civic center, and the just random people who took them blankets and soup and hot drinks. Or the people who got married in the presence of two sobbing witnesses with their parents on the other end of the cell, because they couldn't get there in time. Or... well, you get the picture.
