According to the Excelsior's time correction equipent, it is almost time to
celebrate the Terran ritual of Christmas. I've been busy decorating the server
room of the Excelsior with lights, ornaments, and other implements of the
holiday.
It seems weird that I would do this, despite the fact that I am the only
conscious person aboard the Excelsior. However, it gives me an excuse to
avoid my lack of faith in human beings and to excersize my body. I'm sitting
down writing this as a quick break before continuing my decorating.
I'm not just doing this for a sense of jolly. It also gives me an excuse to
manually check the cryo berths, which are all performing just fine.
Eventually I'll take all the decorations down and go back to checking QEC.
Until then, I'm being festive for a change.
