“I’m scared,” Mr. Levy said. “It’s really close....”

...Paul Ellis, 51, a retail manager in San Francisco, was at City Hall on Monday to witness Mr. Golden and Mr. Levy’s wedding. It was Mr. Ellis’s seventh same-sex marriage in the last five months, he said, attending most of them in the tartan kilt he wore on a muggy Monday, which he regretted.

Good luck!

Now to stop obsessing over single digit return numbers for Prop 8 and try and settle down and get ready for bed.
