Thanks to the abomination of Daylight Savings Time and a lovely 8:00am committee meeting this morning, I'm functioning on too damn few hours of sleep.  So, naturally this is when I once again update my journal.  This will likely be insane, but those of you who read this stuff (I'm talking to you, tigerli-ly (https://www.deviantart.com/tigerli-ly)) are likely used to that. 1. What's your favorite season? The political off-season (which as far as I can tell, no longer exists in the United States...) 2. Does apathy really exist? Meh.  I don't care... 3.
