[after yet another painful, bloody and failed attempt at self bullet removal...] Ugh... I've waited too long. Scar tissue is starting to form.
I had a nightmare last night. This stupid bullet needs to come out. Soon.
...I need to talk with EVA.
I need
I wish I was better at
...So Jeff's
gone. He went back to his boarding school in Winters. Apparently his father didn't come through with him on the paperwork. Why am I not surprised... It'd be pretty easy for Otacon, Rouge or hell, myself even to hack the school's system and adjust a few things so he could stay but... I don't feel like that's my place to interfere. Plus it'd look weird if I got caught. I really shouldn't be getting so attached anyway, especially to a student. Because shit like this will happen. ...I... I miss him. I miss him so much already.
I really shouldn't be getting attached to anyone, but it's far too late for that. It was so much less complicated back in space... and lonely.
The samples I got from that trip to SR388 finally stabilized. I can't believe I found anything at all out there. Nothing but junk and debris otherwise... I've got to get these to Otacon asap. I wonder... if we can really do something for Snake. I hope. Just hoping won't change things, though. ...Snake...
...If nothing else, maybe Otacon will appreciate the other space trip I made out earlier in the week to get his Christmas present? It's technically not stealing if you're stealing back from stealing Space Pirates, right? Not like they had a better use for it. Hmph.
I still need to do most of my shopping, aaargh. I should just find Ollie and drag him off to the mall. Probably won't like it if I take the bike again.
...Oh well. That didn't stop me the first time.
