Happy Birthday, oursin!
Tuesday October 1, 2013 Federal Government largely shut down, first day.

***Shopping day. Wedge Coop, first.

Steeple People Thrift Store.

HealthPartners Riverside pharmacy, to pick up meds. Came with the standard warning not to use if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding.

***From Ansible 315:
RUMBLINGS. _Beach of the Dead 2013:_ the annual Brighton zombie parade has been cancelled owing to 'health and safety fears.' That's what this troubled world needs -- safer and healthier zombies.

GENRE PURITY MASTERCLASS. Outing Lois McMaster Bujold as a writer of romance rather than True SF: 'Bujold tips her hand in the eloquence of her language (normally a good thing) and the attention to detail that only women would find attractive: balls, courts, military dress, palace intrigues, gossiping, and whispering in the corridors. All of this is right out of Alexander Dumas.' (Paul Cash, 'When Science Fiction is Not Science Fiction', _Amazing_, 4 September) [NL/JDN]

From politicalwire.com:
Dean Chambers, the man who helped "unskew" polls during the 2012 presidential campaign to show Mitt Romney was actually leading, now says President Obama is gay.

"I think Sullivan is right, but not for the right reason. I do believe that Barack Obama is in fact our first gay president. But I believe this for entirely different reasons. I believe the man actually is gay."

Pretty psyched to have gotten health insurance in 2013 from one of the same companies that denied me in 2012. The #ACA is my jam.
