Officer's Log - Stardate: Later than the last one

Well shit. Like, really. Well shit. I have no reason to be this nervous about anything. It's almost time for us to head out, and I still haven't really straightened things out with anyone. My father's ill, which is just odd for us. We have no idea what he came down with, and it's... having adverse affects on mom. She's stressed multiple times that I'm not allowed to take a leave to help at the circus, and most of the performers are taking her side on the matter.

I don't think I've ever yelled so damn loud at anyone in my life.

I'm upset, but I feel unjustly upset in the matter. Mother was insistent on the matter, even after I mentioned that family is more important. It is, and she couldn't disagree with me. She hadn't planned on either myself or Grandma finding out that he was in the hospital, and I don't think Grandma knows at this point. It was a trying conversation, and I don't... really wish to recount it.

Maybe I should rant about something else here, this is just going to make me more upset than it should.

I could talk about that Andorian boy. Poor guy, probably doesn't know where his head is. Didn't realize he was coming on to me until it was a little late, and he's not exactly the most subtle of people. Must just be me in my work-habits again. I have no idea now, whether I'll even be in the right state to develop anything past a friendship with him, especially with all that's about to happen and all that is happening. He's cute, I'll definitely give him that.

And then there's the matter of still having to meet with Lieutenant Peers. Or Zaren? I'm not too sure, I'll have to meet with her to straighten it all out. I've only ever really seen her once, and she was in no state to have me go 'hello, I'm your new engineer and I'm here to save your ass.' Hopefully she's recovered well in the past two months, and we'll be able to work well together.

... Jeeze... There's so much going on, isn't there? There's not much to do about it now though. Only time will tell, all that crap.

Hey, at least we have that goddamn bar installed. Modules are a mess, I don't know who talked me into that one. If it's that big a deal, I'll just grab K'os and we'll work with another Operations type on the dealie, but I'm all for giving things a chance.

... Hopefully we won't end up blowing Deck 7 off the ship...........

I'm gonna get back to work before I freak myself out.
