I got a cat today. I haven’t had a pet cat in years — not since I was a kid. We had two cats. One we got from the humane society and the other came from a neighbor who’s cats had kittens.

Her name is Bess. I got her from a group here in Indianapolis called ARPO. They take cats and dogs and provide foster homes until they are able to adopt them to good homes.

Bess is afraid of her surroundings. She doesn’t mind me going up to hear and rubbing on her. She has a loud purr, too. Hopefully she’ll venture out on her own once she gets hungry.

The Republicans have gained control of both houses of the Indiana General Assembly. This is a sad time for GLBT people because one of the very first things they will push through is a constituational amendment to ban same-sex marriage.

On the bright side, this is something that must pass two sessions of the General Assembly. This means that they must go through another election cycle and then pass it again before it will show up on the ballot for referendum.

The odds are against us. It would mean that the Democrats gain back control of one of the houses after the next election cycle, and then pull the same stunt they did during the last session by denying a hearing on the amendment.
