  • Sometimes that little thing is the straw. You’ve had a rough few days, all kinds of twists and turns, but hey you have a relaxing weekend coming up to recharge, so you held it together, then that little thing happens and it’s like “ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh fuck!”

    That little thing, by itself, probably wouldn’t matter that much…but on top of everything else, it’s a different story.


  • For me, it’s a huge headache saver. We have a 60 lb dog who likes to get into bed with us, along with one of our cats. If I don’t make my side of the bed prior to my wife and the dog getting in, I’m probably not going to have usable sheets and blankets for the night. Wherever the sheets are when he decides to hop in, that’s where they’re staying.

    So, I definitely make at least my side of the bed every day, at some point. Not usually right away in the morning, but it definitely gets done. I don’t go all out on it, just get the sheet and blanket (and comforter, in winter) in essentially the right position for me. It’s critical for a good night of sleep.

    And, yes, we probably shouldn’t have let him in the bed in the first place. Lesson learned. That’s a whole other story. But the damage is done.



  • On the other hand, making the top notch pilot - you know, the one she sprung from prison because he was so good at piloting - also the assistant in sickbay was a questionable decision. Surely there was someone whose job was vacuuming the carpet in the crew mess hall, or some other less critical job, who could help in sickbay during emergencies, and not your top pilot who could save everyone’s lives with his piloting skills.

    Sorry. This always bugs me. I agree with you about Tuvix, but Janeway made some pretty odd decisions that everyone ignores in favor of Tuvix.
