I was at my comms station and couldn’t believe my eyes. I came across my old logs (diary)! I wrote there from Stardate 05312001 until Stardate 08172009. I had no idea how cringe, depressed and religious I was back then. Officer Tino means business! I feel somewhat conflicted about linking the recovered logs here. IContinueContinue reading “Captain’s Blog: Stardate 10302025.7”

Off The Record
Listen to this Episode There’s so much I want to say but I don’t know where to begin. I’ve deleted dozens of sentences trying to find just the right intro.

Listen to this episode I went on my first away mission with my work crew. During the ride in the shuttlecraft (car), the conversation was lighthearted. The specific details of the mission are classified per orders of Starfleet Command. I will say that the mood inside the shuttlecraft was somber once we were flying backContinueContinue reading “Captain’s Blog: Stardate 12062021.8”
