I came across this NY Times article today detailing the chaos the current budget situation is causing for almost every government agency.

In the spirit of my last post I figured I would share it with you all, since it details just how important government spending is to the daily functioning of so many programs we take for granted.
That said, the seers of Washington seem to be predicting a three-week CR will be passed sometime this week, meaning there is a solid chance my trip to Jamaica will go forward (*knocks on wood*). I refuse to get my hopes up, however, since politics in D.C. is a fickle beast. I'll make sure to keep you all updated.
