reasons to get married: tax/healthcare benefits
my mom and her boyfriend of ten years are getting married on monday for the healthcare benefits
he asked her while they were driving to dinner in a ridiculously roundabout way, by telling her about the healthcare thing his new job has (they don't offer it for het domestic partnerships? he's gonna check illegality later), but wasn't sure if she was (still) up for getting married.
good grief. i get to witness tho! and they're driving me to work
