To all of my gay friends — CONGRATULATIONS!

You guys worked incredibly hard for marriage equality, and you deserve your landmark victory!

Now go get HITCHED, ya crazy kids!!  I expect a wedding invitation, and I expect to be introduced to various sisters and bridesmaids at the reception.  I also expect that a poem written on a napkin will be a graciously accepted wedding present.
