I had the best dream last night.
I had the best dream last night.
There isn't a good way to tell your roommates that you have a bit of an "anger / Jekyll & Hyde complex." So, there it is. If you'd like, I can show you.But I dThat iHowever, it isn't a pleasant experience for anyone involved, and I'd prefer if we can operate on my word that I won't randomly "Hulk smash" any of your belongings.
As it is, I don't like surprises. Thank you.
Let us talk about something other than complicated housing situations.
Shall I keep writing to you, Lucy? Or shall I simply give you over to the Lion? I know not what you would wish of me.
Pardon the intrusion into your evening. However, when I was informed that Dwarves such as yourself had arrived it filled my heart with gladness. You see, though our lands are separated by long stretches of time and space, I am not altogether unfamiliar with perhaps a reflection of you.
I had a great many friends who called themselves Dwarf. Red Dward, Black Dwarf ... we long strove for peace with one another, dearly achieved, and those Sons of Earth had places of honour in the court of my siblings. I only say this because I cannot imagine the degree to which this world is a shock to you.
And, perhaps in time, we three might be friends too.
First, allow me to tell you how proud I am of all of you, for the jobs that you've done lately with the werewolf situation, and with the odd illnesses and injuries that are a normal part of life here in Mount Weather. You are all exceptional beings.
But I would like to address a situation that may or may not be becoming a problem for us as medical workers. We are each expected to take on the burden of caring for everyone in this mountain, but I've discovered that all too often we neglect a significant portion of the population: ourselves. We take extra shifts, or stay longer, or take on extra patients, at the expense of our mental and physical well-being. While we may work like machines, we are not. We are living, breathing beings that need sleep and time off and, yes, sex. Don't neglect yourself. Take time to be with your partner, if you have one, to read a book, take a walk, visit the schoolrooms to see the children, or to just sleep. Keep an eye out for each other. If someone is showing signs of fatigue, stress, grief, or anything that may be affecting their quality of life, speak to them -- or approach me and I will speak with them. Don't do what I did, and bury yourself in your work out of some misguided idea that would take your grief away or make it easier to bear.
Starting tomorrow, each of us -- including myself -- is expected to adhere to the hours we're scheduled. Don't stay late to get just one more test result logged; the next person can handle that. Of course there will be times when we'll be needed to stay longer, all hands on deck, with only a brief break here and there for sleep or food. Now is not one of those times. Things are relatively peaceful, and we all need to take advantage of that.
In short: keep to your scheduled hours, find time to play and to sleep and to eat.
Secondly, after some discussion with Drs. Griffin and Jackson, we are implementing a new processing procedure for new arrivals. Upon awakening, after giving us their name and the names of people they know at home -- a loved one, friends, or otherwise, we will use the database that has been gathering information since we all arrived to ascertain if someone that they are familiar with is here. If there are, then we will inform the new arrival of that, and will also contact next-of-kin or a friend, so that they can help acclimate him or her to their new home. This procedure is to be implemented immediately. If you have any questions, ask.
I wonder if, down the line, you'd be willing to have a guest director for the Mount Weather Community Theater? I've directed many plays on the Enterprise, and I continued with it once my time on the ship ended. I'm not particularly good at directing musicals, but plays I'm quite good at.
I have acquired three new roommates in the course of three days. I think we should go "green"-ing this weekend, or next,or permanently..
We've lost several of our friends recently, so I thought now would be a good time to spend some time together, all of us. Play some cards, listen to music, whatever you crazy kids do these days. We spend a lot of time - or at least I do - with our jobs around here, and sometimes other things get pushed aside.
I'm taking the Hulk out into the woods tomorrow totell him about mytest out a theory. You don't need to be there. I'm taking Jan with me, and I'm going to let Amadeus know the exact coordinates. I need you trust me, but I also need you to know what's happening, in case I'm wrong.
And I'll need you to keep an eye on the lab while I'm out.
Can we do a check in?
I'm fine other than a few scratches. Goes with the new look, I think.
I know you're not really my responsibility here, but I'm feeling the need to check in on folks. How is everyone and does anyone need anything?
Look, I realize the Hulk might be useful against an army of werewolves, and that maybe this qualifies as a code green. But there are civilians out there, and who knows what else, and I think it might be best if I stay in medical for the fight.UnlI'd appreciate it if everyone respected my decision, but I'm willing to listen to counter-arguments. If you have them.
Times like this, I kind of wish we hadn't blown the the damn acid fog.
Good morning, all. As you are aware, the full moon is coming up. It's on August 29, which is this Saturday. As you are no doubt aware by now, a Grounder army of what may be werewolves have set up camp around the base's perimeter. I think it would be in our best interest to make sure that we are as prepared as possible for any trouble that may happen this Saturday.
- I'm not asking for a complete inventory of our supplies, but I need at least two people to make sure that the supply cabinets are filled.
- Every exam room needs to be made ready for potential patients, and lists made for each room for supplies that need to be replenished or topped up.
- On Saturday, we're going to set up a triage unit near the blast doors. Tony Gates, you are in charge of seeing that set up, and you will be responsible of that unit. Let me know what you will need, and who you need.
We are going to be busy every single day this week, people. Make sure you get enough sleep. This isn't crunch time, so there is no need for any of us to be sleep deprived. Save that for Saturday.
