Friend Vena Pontiac called me this afternoon. Nice chat. Hoping to chat in person next year at the worldcon. Last time we did that was in 2006, also at the worldcon, which is a local affair for her. Looking forward to this…

I got my first Social Security payment today. Early, but I’m not complaining. I wasn’t sure if the govt shutdown would delay it.
