I know that it will work. I am rarely wrong when it comes to these things. I guess I should keep that in mind the next time I second guess myself, but confidence is just not one of my stronger suits. Thankfully, there are enough diversions to make it look like less than it is. Though, sitting in the center chair seems to have enticed me into command one day. Perhaps in the distant future, that is what I will push for. A science vessel might not be a bad thing to command, especially if I am able to serve with a crew that is as good as this one. | I know that it will work.

We finally got into port, but it seems that this shore leave will be different than most I've experienced. Almost right before we pulled into the starbase, the Admiral was discovered missing. What's worse, he seems to have left a staged crime scene in his wake. I was asked to look at and analyze the knife that was found, and it seems to have been replicated. There were no minerals or materials in the knife that should have been making the whole thing seem slightly surreal to say the least. | |||
We got to have a great dinner on the holodeck thanks to Ensign Cooper. It was great in the fact that I got to go riding on my holographic representation of Duster, which is always something that I love. What I didn't expect was to spend as much time with Commander Webb as I did. He came after me on a horse that was waaaaay too big for his skill level, which promptly ended him on the ground. I guess I didn't want the night to end, and he fell asleep on my couch. I don't mind, in fact, I rather wish that we could do it again. I hope that we get time in the near future to at least talk. I must say, I really enjoy his company. | |||
Commander Jaxx wants a full overhaul of the sensors done in thirty six hours, and while it is normally impossible, I have to give it my best. Between Ensign Tali, Cyrus, Tressa, and I, I am hoping that we can come up with some kind of plan that gets us where we need to be in the time that we have to get there. I don't know what Jaxx is planning, but I trust that he will not lead us astray. | |||

The sensor overhaul was a success and I must say that I am quite proud of how the department held up. With the help of Ensign Tressa, we were able to coordinate our brand new department with engineering to complete the task just over the deadline that Jaxx set for us. Of course, he told me later that he didn't really expect it in that time period, but it was good to get close. The goal was impossible, but he thought that our actual time was impossible too. All in all, I am pleased at how the department is doing and how well everyone is working together. I am especially glad to have Tressa aboard. She is a huge help in many ways. | |||
Today was quite the shocker as well. I was called to the ready room after the briefing, which made me think that I was either in trouble, or Jaxx had another crazy task for me and my department. Wrong on both accounts, I was quite surprised when he promoted me. Cyrus was there, and all I could really do was look up at him with a stupid look on my face as he place my new half pip on my collar. I feel like an idiot, and in a room with two powerful betazoids, I am sure they knew just how idiotic I felt. I still am not used to people calling me commander, but I am sure in time it will be second nature. | |||
Tonight may prove to be an interesting night. It is the first time since we set sail that we have a full department and normal working hours. That means I get to take some time off! Cyrus asked me to dinner in his quarters, and I have to admit that I am pretty excited about it. I have a few things to tie up here in the lab, but soon the day will be over and I think I will finally be able to relax a bit. I just hope that I don't make too much of a fool at dinner. This whole relationship thing is so new to me. All I ever cared about before was science, but now I am starting to feel just a little bit different... | |||
