Commander's Report
Emily Colvin Reporting
I think we've finally hit our mental weekend. We're getting silly (well, sillier than normal), and becoming...not less useful, but less efficient. It'll take us a few more minutes than normal to pick up on things. So far, this hasn't caused any problems, just confusion, and tomorrow is our day of rest. Especially since it's a holiday. There was a spontaneous decision by the crew to paint roundish rocks, so we'll have a hunt tomorrow, in suits. I don't think we've figured out what to use for baskets, though. I'm thinking maybe I can make something out of the 50 billion zip ties we have around here...
I'm never sure what to write about in these things. I try to give a vet's perspective, or problems coordinating things. But there's always so much more, or less, or just different. MDRS is such an unconventional place that sticking to rigid structures works for very little (some of engineering being the exception - but even that stuff likes to misbehave and require long explanations). So I write this every evening, never knowing what I'm going to write about until I'm done, and then I'm always shocked at how much I, at least, can tell what my mood is when I'm writing. But at that point, it's written, and I'm sending it out for posterity.
And I think it's time, now, to send this in, before gravity claims yet another crew member (no worries, there was no physical injury, just bruised dignity).
