Listen to this episode I once read that living with people is like jazz. It’s improvised, messy, offbeat, and sometimes unexpectedly beautiful. I think that living with the crew can be described in much the same way. For the last 16 years of my life, I have watched my little cadets grow as people andContinueContinue reading “Off the Record: 03292025.5”

Listen to this episode Today, the (work) crew and I were relocated to Starbase 701 (new worksite). As I pulled up in my shuttlecraft (car), I noticed a number of shipless (homeless) encampments just outside the perimeter of the Starbase. Upon further inspection, I noticed a little girl (about 6 years ago) scurrying about theContinueContinue reading “Captain’s Blog Stardate 07122022.9”

Listen to this episode I never thought that I would get bored exploring the spiritual realm. The infinite possibilities in the universe used to permeate my mind on a regular basis. Though that journey is ongoing, I’ve deprioritized that mission in order to focus a bit more on taking care of myself and fostering relationshipsContinueContinue reading “Captain’s Blog Stardate 07092022.3”
Off the Record
(A more extemporaneous entry) Listen to this Episode After 2 and a half years of not talking with me, my dad called me. He called with the purpose of reiterating what he has already told me; which is to say that he accepts my transition but still remains firm in his belief that little kidsContinueContinue reading “Off the Record”

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”
Priority 1 Transmission, Part 2
The conversation builds on what was said in Captain’s Blog: Stardate 10172021.7 and in the previous entry Priority 1 Transmission. Ray’s text is in italic and I respond underneath. This is his response to the priority 1 transmission. There’s much I can say on the end times, but I don’t think you’ll hear me on it.ContinueContinue reading “Priority 1 Transmission, Part 2”

Listen to this episode As Starfleet officers, my crew and I always look forward seeking out new life and new civilizations. Lately, we have found ourselves exploring Bajoran space. Starbase 460 (Seventh day Adventist church) had an uncomfortably large amount of people crammed into the space station considering the galactic plague. I’m not fond ofContinueContinue reading “Captain’s Blog, Stardate 09022021.3”

Listen to this episode Our ability to undertake missions has been adversely affected by the dense ionized nebula our ship finds itself in. (Wildfire smoke has drastically reduced the air quality) Additionally, it has been difficult to conduct away missions when the interstellar radiation (the temperature) reaches above 90 millirems (degrees Fahrenheit). Still, with someContinueContinue reading “Captain’s Blog, Stardate 08272021.4”
Captain’s Log, Stardate 08052021.5
Listen to this episode We were mapping the Folso sector when my crew decided to beam down to Willows 3. The class M planet was abundant in lush foliage, marsh and rocky outcroppings. While conducting routine scans and documenting our findings, I had a lot weighing on my mind. One thing that was on myContinueContinue reading “Captain’s Log, Stardate 08052021.5”
