Maryland has a good shot at it this year as well. I don't oppose same sex marriage. If it were on the ballot, I would vote for it. But that's the thing, I think it should be on the ballot. And I don't think activist judges should be the ones making that decision (ie- Iowa and California). I've read the Constitution and there is no right to marriage (heterosexual, homosexual, or otherwise). The people should be able to collectively define what marriage ought to mean in their state through democratic means.

They've been doing some really amazing things up there lately (like raising the minimum wage).
I would consider moving there if the weather wasn't so crappy (cloudy/rainy).
Hey! We have had the most awesome winter I can ever remember!
December was almost the driest December since something like 1876 and it would have shattered that old record if we hadn't gotten hit with a bunch of rain the last week of 2011.
January had a run of great weather, too, followed by a bunch of snow (and ice in some places). I had two feet of snow and was snowed in for a week but that was ok (I don't like going anywhere anyway).
And then the first week of February was like SPRING. Warm and comfortable (a little on the windy side, though). Today was the first day of rain we've had for a while and it wasn't terrible.
So.....marriage equality and great weather! What more could you ask for (we even have a couple of volcanoes!)?
