History in the present

Today I got to place my first Official gay-marriage invitation order. We've done invitations for same-sex unions before, but this was the first time they could use the word "marriage." I kept having an urge to congratulate them, or something, but I figured the whole point was for them to have the same experience as everybody else. Fortunately we treat our customers pretty well in the first place. :-)

I think that if you got all bouncy and said "it's so cool, to be able to do this" that they wouldn't mind. :)

Like your icon, too -- what's that from?

Probably true but I was trying to act professional, y'know...

And I got the icon from the "nocreditneeded" group, I don't remember more specifically than that. But thanks, glad you like it!
