Today I awoke at 138.6 pounds, and Connecticut is the 3rd state to legalize gay marriage! I would’ve guessed it’d be New York with all the people there. The crazies out there could ban California gay marriages next month, but Connecticut and Massachusetts should be safe from the issue ever being on the ballot again. Once again, I don’t see why things should be one way or the other. We don’t force straights to marry, so why should we force gays not to marry?

We got down to 39º last night – ugh! I don’t know if we’ll ever buy a house again, but if we do it won’t be in NorCal!

We had a hell of a time trying to light the heater last night, but fortunately, I had the portable heater in the bedroom. It got down to 55º in the living room, but Tom said he was fine under the blanket. This morning, though, he brought it up 10º in 15 minutes with the oven on 350º, then he managed to get the pilot lit on the heater.
