Nov 6

I'm at work, outside taking a smoke break, and seriously just a couple minutes ago heard two coworkers discussing the election. Specifically, "She sucked dick to get to the top."

Breathing slowly and carefully and enjoying talking to the sweet basset hound pups in a customer's car parked nearby. I will NOT let them get to me, even though I wanted to punch the shit out of both of these assholes.

I'm extra glad today that I decided to not have kids.
