it shows the whole country.

ETA:  if you haven't already, type "gay marriage" into Google and hit enter.

I've been watching this map for like half an hour, ever since someone else linked it to me.

I never was so happy when I saw the headlines on my FB home page. :D I was liking just about every item that talked about this before I realized that I should probably stop. lol It's the BEST NEWS EVER!!!

The only thing that would make that map better is a giant rainbow!

I was waiting this morning, holding my breath a little. And then the news came and my personal social media timelines went absolutely mad with delight. Then my work social media went mad with delight - the director of diversity emailed to say that our chief legal counsel had called him, "audibly elated" (as she should be, she helped write a brief against DOMA) to tell him the news, and my work inbox is full of happiness too!

Amazing, I just didn't dare hope the decision would go entirely in favour of federal recognition of marriage equality. I thought this day was still a few years away. I worried that it'd come to the Supreme Court too soon. I am SO SO SO happy to be wrong.

I got home from work today, saw my Facebook timeline (which was epic with it's positivity) and thought "I really MUST hit LJ tonight" :D ;)

Congratulations! I don't even live in your country and I frequently get so frustrated with what happens there - NOT TODAY!! :D

It's a good day. :) xxx
