Subject: Couple of things

1) are you still around tomorrow. Supposed to see the boss at 12:15 as of now. Do you have 15 minutes on either end?
2) let me know if there is grumpiness on any of her Face the Nation answers. I thought she was generous to POTUS on the economy and ACA; tough on the Pentagon on train and equip, but didn't take any swipes at him. Trying to calibrate whether we are threading the needle ok with you guys after Valerie getting her nose out of joint on Keystone. (She watches too much Morning Joe by the way; they are the only people who viewed her comments on being frustrated with the delay as a frontal attack on POTUS.)
3) not to sound like a whining weasel, but should I assume I didn't make the cut on the China dinner? Haven't heard anything and both Mary and I are trying to figure out travel plans.
