Symptoms of high-altitude weddings include giddiness. Symptoms of watching the movie "Up" include crying at the beginning like everybody does.

A marriage proposal facilitated by a sassy talking trash can! It's like your loud, annoying friend you can't get rid of. Only now that friend's a robot. At Disney World. ... Yes.

Although gay marriage has no official status in Japan, this week Tokyo Disneyland announced it would begin allowing same-sex couples to wed on their property. This decision came after 27-year-old Koyuki Higashi inquired if it would be permitted for her to marry her partner there. This announcement is considered groundbreaking in a country where homosexuality is still a taboo topic. Via The Guardian:

Higashi and her partner have visited Disneyland to break their good news to Mickey Mouse, but have yet to set a date for the wedding. "Mickey first looked surprised to hear that we are a couple of girls," she said on her blog. "But we said we were there to thank him … and he celebrated with us."

Disney really does make dreams come true!

Reminds me of the last time I was put under for dental surgery... wait I mean best wedding ever!!
