hi,
Like lisa, I understand from talking to a few couples that same sex couples don't necessarily have to wait a long time (ie a year or more). We also live in Southern CA. You might want to try a facilitator (there are some very good ones) who might speed up the process by making your profile more available out there. We used one who works with many same sex couples and is a nonprofit with a sliding fee scale. pm me if you're interested.
btw, we were presented with a couple of bmothers who just wanted a loving home and didn't care about other issues.
take care and good luck,
LisaCA
