The vote is expected to come in the next hour and a half.

This was, I realized just now in talking to Patty, sort of my first gay rights issue that wasn't AIDS-related. Back in 1990/1991. TWENTY YEARS AGO. OKAY, TWENTY FUCKING YEARS AGO.

But this was also something I never thought I'd see. So many of the people who taught me what it means to be gay aren't here for this.

This thing, that of course, may not even happen. But we really, really think it's going to. There are crowds out all over the city watching -- in Times Square and where the Stonewall Riots happened.

And NY is only one state, but it will double the number of people living in states with marriage equality. We also have no residency requirement for marriage, so we become a destination for more people from other places.

I'm only going to get less coherent.

So yeah. YOU GUYS.
