Current System: Col 173 Sector CH-K d9-17It's amusing to imagine that today's the day that after I finish whatever surveying I'm going to do, I'll be turning the Zheng He around and heading back home. Pulling out my lucky peso I'd done the routine coin flip and according to heads, I'll be heading to Newholm Station, Sothis instead of Crook Port this time around.
It'll be good to see some of the familiar faces at the cantina and the bar there, along with Duty Officers on the docks and within the Pilot's Guild Office for the dole-out for survey pay as well as the rank up which I'm sure to be getting this run... Who knows? Maybe even a couple of the System Patrol and Independent Pilots I've flirted with once or twice when I was in port. Well at least the System Patrol Pilots will be there that's for sure, they don't get to transfer out from their jobs too often.
I think sometime soon I'll be heading back to Abraham Lincoln Station for a little shore leave on Earth again. If only because the war drums are being beaten along with the tune of saber rattling and the last thing I want to get entangled with is war against an alien race with unknown intentions.
Then it'll be back to Crook Port to sell the Praetorian and look into either a Cobra or a Viper.
Not too long this time though. I need to compose myself into being more social and less anti-social since spending so much time in the Deep Black. And that always takes time (and energy) to sort out within myself.
