To wish my dearest Marc Newhouse and Rafael Fernández-Toledo a Happy Anniversary!!!
Hear me out, Marc's "dear Readers," for a moment or two….
Marc and Raf have been together for more than 25 years, which is a record when it comes to many couples of their generation (gay or not.) And five years ago today they were LEGALLY married in Cambridge, Massachusetts, by the same wonderful lady who officiated the first same-sex marriage in the state, one Margaret Drury.... (and I hope she reads this and knows how I will never forget her name...nor will those wonderful guys!)
Marc's beautiful mom, Frances Newhouse (greatly responsible for the occasion,) is—I know —celebrating, big time, from her landscape in the stars....
Marc and Raf are two of my most important and essential (exemplary!) people in the world, and I just want to let it be known that it's their anniversary!!
So here it is.
I love you guys!!!! And forgive me for not remembering it was today, thinking it was tomorrow!! I'm that clumsy when it comes to dates!
H A P P Y A N N I V E R S A R Y,
R A F A N D M A R C !!!!
