Sigh
My parents are here for Val's birthday party. In a fleeting moment of enthusiasm I told them that yes! We're Getting Married!
Silence.
I went on to explain that the Supreme Court had ruled today, blah blah blah. Finally I had to say 'now's the part where you say 'Congratulations.'
I should not have to spell that out.

Forget "congratulations." What you deserve to hear is, "THAT'S TERRIFIC! WE'RE SO EXCITED FOR YOU!" Accompanied by jumping up and down and clapping of hands.
So:
"THAT'S TERRIFIC! WE'RE SO EXCITED FOR YOU!"
(Picture jumping up and down and clapping of hands.)

Whoah. That is weak. Silence? Ouch.

I think their reaction just goes to show how utterly *AMAZING* it is that you *CAN* get married now -- no, really! It wasn't even on their mental radar.
As soon as I heard about the change on the news, I thought of you two! [McJedi voice:] You will let us celebrate. Oh yes, you will. ;-D
