Well, Marriage Doesn't Function In The Way

More From Jeffrey Eugenides

New york is the thing that seduced me. new york is the thing that formed me. new york is the thing that deformed me. new york is the thing that perverted me. new york is the thing that converted me. and new york is the thing that i love too.

A miami judge issued florida's first gay marriage license yesterday, which makes it the 36th state to legally perform gay marriages. of course, most florida residents are too old to understand what that means. they'll say, 'well, i think all marriages should be gay, and merry.'
Mean Gay Thinking
Fate is a misplaced retreat. many people rationalize an unexplained event as fate and shrug their shoulders when it occurs. but that is not what fate is. the world operates as a series of circles that are invisible, for they extend to the upper air. fate is where these circles cut to earth. since we cannot see them, do not know their content, and have no sense of their width, it is impossible to predict when these cuts will slice into our reality. when this happens, we call it fate. fate is not a chance event but one that is inevitable, we are simply blind to its nature and time.
Cutting Fate Reality
Personnel determines the potential of the team. vision determines the direction of the team. work ethic determines the preparation of the team. leadership determines the success of the team.

In my real life, both my bosses are gay. on the 'real housewives of atlanta,' andy cohen is gay, everybody at bravo is gay - we call them the gay mafia. over at 'glee' and 'the new normal,' my boss ryan murphy is gay. on the show, my boss, played by andrew reynolds, is gay in real life. i'm surrounded by all my gay bosses.

New rule: gay marriage won't lead to dog marriage. it is not a slippery slope to rampant inter-species coupling. when women got the right to vote, it didn't lead to hamsters voting. no court has extended the equal protection clause to salmon. and for the record, all marriages are "same sex" marriages. you get married, and every night, it's the same sex.

What is a family without love? and by family i don't just mean a packed kitchen table with a hoard of children around it. a family can be made up of any number of people. me and my fiancee are our own little family, a family of two (and the dog!), and our love is at the heart of that.

Ladies love outlaws, like babies love stray dogs. ladies touch babies like a banker touches gold, outlaws touch ladies somewhere deep down in their soul.

We want everything. all the happiness that earth and heaven are capable of bestowing. creature comforts, and heart and soul comforts also; and, proud-spirited beings that we are, we will not be put off with a part. give us only everything, and we will be content. and, after all, cinderella, you have had your day. some little dogs never get theirs. you must not be greedy. you have known happiness. the palace was paradise for those few months, and the prince's arms were about you, cinderella, the prince's kisses on your lips; the gods themselves cannot take that from you.

Hear and attend and listen; for this is what befell and be-happened and became and was, o my best beloved, when the tame animals were wild. the dog was wild, and the horse was wild, and the cow was wild, and the sheep was wild, and the pig was wild -as wild as wild could be - and they walked in the wet wild woods by their wild lones. but the wildest of all the wild animals was the cat. he walked by himself and all places were alike to him
