I Need To Be Sent To My Room

I wanted to post yesterday but I've had a bad case of the snarkies so I thought it best to keep my thoughts to myself. I'm snarky because of minor work crap so it's no biggee. It's just that I've been bleating like a pregnant goat at dinner time for over a year now that our service department is broken. Well, the proverbial fecal matter is hitting the air handling device. But I'm not one for I-told-you-so's.

That's a bald face lie. I'm SO not above saying that.

A-n-y-w-a-y.....
