another tiring day today. whoever said being an engineer was easy needs their head inserted into a reactor. hard.
Yorktown's still in bits with one reactor down, we had a complete LCARS failure on 400 decks 121-147 which needed sorting by yours truly and Walshie, Tirptz is in for a standard refit and Mercy had a power failure of unknown origin which Coleman's sorting personally. the only upside of all of this is that i'm spending more and more time on ships now, which is what i've always wanted. it's a pity they're always broken when i get there.
we could do with getting rid of some of the mothballers i feel, Backman's passed it, Wasp and Princetown are relics, Mogami has'nt got warp drive anymore, Antietam's a write-off since a warp failure many years ago blew one nacelle to bits and knackered another and Boxer needs a complete drydock work-up and stripdown due to to the amount of fatigue she's got. i mean us yellow's have to look after all of these when our time could be spent more wisely you know. anyway, only matters what bremer thinks.
oh and last but not least, Walshie fell down a jeffries tube today and bust his arm. clumsy fool. he was all patched up within 30 mins though. first time i've been in sickbay on here. i hope next time it wont be me in one of those beds. i hate hospitals.
well i'm off to the promenade in a moment, my first time there too. populated with high command and marines Walshie telle me. Travers and Watson are tagging along too. we'll have a game up there as well. Dye's can't come cos' he's watering his plants and Harry's got a meeting with the NCO board about the next round of promotions on deck level. oh well their loss. gives me a chance to kick some botty at the table.
Alright Walshie, i'm coming, i'm coming
