I Love Fridays.

It's the weekend, yay! It looks to be a pretty quiet one this weekend. That's okay though, Dragon*Con is next weekend so I should probably spend this weekend getting ready. I finished reading the Dark Tower II recently and started the Dark Tower III. I really like this series. I've heard that the later books aren't as good, but I hope the reports are greatly exaggerated. The ACM had Bad Movie Night and we watched, Death Bed, The Bed that Eats. It was bad. The worst part I think was how calm everyone was while their friends were being eaten and even when they were being eaten.

In Business Communications we watched the opening scene of Joe Versus the Volcano. I want to see the rest now. It looked good. He was trying to illustrate miscommunication in business, but I noticed that it seemed well produced.

I came home, worked on some physics homework, played some Mario.

And then...

Captain Comic's ship descended to the surface of the planet Reeva. He was beginning to doubt my ability to pick places filled with "Adventure." The place looked desolate. The atmosphere was breathable, unbelievably, but there was no vegetation or signs of life. Just gray jagged mountains and fields of metallic ash. I lead a small party towards a cave our sensors had picked up to the north. The mouth of the cave was two stories tall and oddly rectangular. The cave wasn't perfect but the walls were too flat, too straight for natural formations.

We marched into the cave with the low sound of wind howling behind us. At the end of the cave was a door. A big, metal door with an electronic lock that was turned on. I began to feel nervous, but when life throws you big scary doors, you do what every good pirate does. You knock first, cause who knows, might be a big scary dude. The door slid open and standing right behind it was my contact, Ash.

"Looking for something?" she said. We marched deeper into the facility. The walls were now lined with computer interfaces and access panels. She explained that this facility was abandoned, but the Refractor Crystal powering it was still operational. Then she mentioned how we might run into resistance with the local robots.

"I thought this was a dig, strictly treasure hunting. How many of these things do we have to deal with?"

"Three. But they're security droids and heavily armed." I was mad at her. She lied to me, but I couldn't help notice that she was actually kind of attractive. Her green hair was cut short, but it fell gracefully around her neck ending in dainty blond tips. Her gray pants and tank top fit tightly around her Well-developed muscles. (and other features)

"And you're sure no one is going to miss this crystal?"

"What do you care, you're a pirate?"

"Good point."

Until next time fellow pirates.
