Went up to Hamden today for Ricardo and Tom's wedding - the first gay wedding I've ever been to. It was really beautiful, and also striking how even people like me, who are deeply invested in social change, and pretty eager to upend some social order, can be dumbfounded in moments when suddenly a ritual is not what it has always been. I look forward to many more gay weddings to come.
