Weekly Photo Challenge: Object

A few months ago, I had the fortune (misfortune?) of getting some training at work.  Got to sit in a classroom for a month while someone spouted a bunch of gibberish at me. I have a work little brother; we rib each other, talk trash, share gossip, and snarked (is that really a word) underContinue reading “Weekly Photo Challenge: Object”
