Can't any one of your damn little Scooby club at least try to remember that I hate you all?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Oh, ugh, shrift, I hate upping visibility. Doing the work should be enough.

And I thought for a second you meant the cat.

A) Hates Mondays 2) Loves lasagna iii) Was nominated as a Dark Horse

Dammit, I keep not having time to call the person with the cat! She left me a message on my work phone after I left yesterday and I thought 7 am was probably too early to call and then I forgot until I was in a meeting and now I'm off toget my hair cut. Maybe I can reachher on the way.

I have to increase my visibility and sell the things I'm working on when I would rather just do the work. Ugh. Maybe I'll distract myself by writing more code.

That sucks. It seems like sales and code writing should be different positions.

Thoughts on running mates at this point?

I read Newt somewhere.

It's 'selling' in the form of self-promotion and visibility with upper management.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I read Newt somewhere.

OMG, that would be amazing. Just in that he might be the only person who is a bigger asshole?

For Trump? I heard Chris Christie somewhere on twitter. Seems plausible.

For Clinton? Harder to say.

For Sanders? Even harder to say.

I've heard people talk about Elizabeth Warren as a potential VP pick for the Democratic nominee, but I'd rather have her kicking butt in the Senate. And wouldn't her seat be filled by the MA governor, a Republican? Nah. Maybe one of the few remaining Democratic governors? Jay Inslee (WA) or Maggi Hassan (NH)?

Corey Booker, Deval Patrick? Though both are Northeasterners, so not much advantage.

That congressperson whose name I'm blanking on with the twin brother who's from Texas and Hispanic. Or maybe he's a mayor? That guy. I've seen his name thrown around for Hillsry's vp.

I don't think Christie brings anything to Trump. I would love for him to tap a senate R to open up another seat.
