The Commissary is PACKED.

And the parking lot was a bitch to get out of. I didn't learn until I was already shopping that the PX and Commissary are closed as of tomorrow due to the government shutdown. I just went to the Commissary for a few thing because Chris and I are heading back to Florida a week from today, and the line was all the way around the store! By the time someone told me that the express line was much shorter (it was), it had looped back around to where the front end registers were.

Now I'm worried about what else is going to be shut down. I just had a small snack (I was feeling a bit anemic) and now I'm off to Housing to make sure the movers will still be packing up our stuff on Thursday and Friday. And then Chris and I are both off to Clark Hall to make sure he'll be able to clear. We will be so, so, so SOL if some key person to his clearing has been furloughed.

And Chris's bonus, and VA benefits, and *headdesk*

Friends, please cross your fingers and hope we're not too screwed.

Update: Just got back from Clark Hall. Business as usual there, no worries about not being able to clear. Small blessings are still blessings.
