11/27

10a0- Woke up slightly earlier than expected. Had a dream I was playing Metal Gear Solid 5, where Snake was on a jetpack... and then he grunted from being hit, and it was the new voice actor Kiefer Sutherland and it was horrible.
10 1/2- Ate cereal, banana.
11a1- Internetted. Was about to get to work, when I spilled water on workstation. Cleaned workstation.
11 1/2- Scheduled out today. Yawned. Made ovaltine with sugar to stave tiredness, and listened to heavy metal. Transcribed the document below, written on paper into computer, did some edits.

Day 4 Morning Script
Ten days ago...
Day Two since Invasion Day-
Our small group was passing through the labs. The labs were hot and humid with an unknown secretion.
Stella- What're we doing in here anyway!? This place is so revolting!
Olga- We look for mineral sonic impactor for my device! Main ingredient, hoohah! Whohoa! Someone sneaky!
Olga ran behind cover while flailing her arms and shooting her gun in the air.

I looked at the source of caution; it's a signal light to call other survivors. The light is obscured by alien wax.
Captain- Stop firing! It's a signal!
Female Voice behind wax- Cease fire!
Olga hid behind a lab table. She's pretty spooked.



//Day 4 Check 1
//Calm Olga
+Veronica --Isabel +Stella -Beatrice +Larissa +Terra
Captain- Hey there. It's alright, they're survivors.
Olga- Ho hum. Am not soldier.
Captain- No, you're an important asset though.
Olga- Correct!
//Discipline Olga
+++Isabel +Elaine -Stella +Beatrice -Terra
Captain- Olga, watch where you point that! Keep your finger on the trigger guard unless you're sure you're going to fire... and stay calm. Like me. See?
Olga- Okies Captain. Thank you, I try.

//Day 4 Check 1 End




12p2- Did some corrections on script. Continued transcribing.

Isabel took her knife and drove it through the wax walls. Thankfully these walls were newly formed and thin, but a lot of the walls completely blocked us passage from other areas on the station. It was some sort of living, thinking wall. Isabel was leading her own group at the time. She had Veronica, Elaine, Beatrice, and Larissa, as well as a few other redshirts with her.


Isabel- Lieutenant Bellini, reporting in.
Captain- Pilot ______ Hudson, Acting Captain.

Isabel was shocked.
Captain- The captain... I was with him during the breakout. He was infected, so he put me in charge, and then I... ended him.
Isabel- Why did he put you in charge?

Captain- He was impressed with my ability to lead during a zombie invasion. I wouldn't have been able to skip rank, otherwise.
Isabel- So your abilities have been proven...But I was next in line. If he was infected, wouldn't he have been in a state of impaired judgment?

//Day 4 Check 2
//"You're out of line, Lieutenant"
++Isabel -Veronica +Elaine ++Stella +Beatrice --Larissa 
Isabel- Aye, sir.
Isabel's eyes locked front and center; her stature statuesque.

12 1/2- Conversed with old friend Ryan, did a few more edits, technical work... He wants me to play Battlefield with him, and I told him I could only do an hour a day. Hmm. 60 dollars is a big investment too (but a 25 dollar massage is well worth it!).

1p3- Ended conversation, oh how I've missed Ryan. Worked on stellaGunPose, good half. Also video of exploding whale.

1 1/2- Worked a little, researched health supplement information.
// I'm sorry, but this is what the Captain wanted. 
Isabel: Don't hide behind his authority! You're the Captain; act as one!
Captain: Yes, Ma'am!
Isabel: (sigh)
//Day 4 check 2 end.


2p4- Ate a big ol' meal.

2 1/2-

Isabel pulled me aside.
Isabel: Permission to speak freely, sir?
Captain: Go ahead.
Isabel: My group has made many sacrifices. What's left is a highly capable combat group and a medic. However, I find that your choice of survivors are puzzling... A bikini clad harlot and a sex workbot without proper breast attachments? One of your members nearly shot me. Is there some sort of specific objective you wish to achieve?
Captain: We're searching for materials to setup a contraption to keep the wax at bay. Your group is to assist us in this endeavor. Patrol the perimeter.

Isabel: Very well... captain.
//day 4 check 3
//You will serve me well.
Isabel: A-aye sir.
//Carry on, Lieutenant.
Isabel nods.
//day 4 check 3 end
(finished transcribing after this point)

Elaine walked in and waved a device.
Elaine: Is this what you were looking for?
Olga: Yes. We now have zhe materials to construct zhe device. Captain, I will need some time.
Elaine: I can help, I think.

Olga: Goot.

4p4: Napped for approx 1h 30m. Good quality sleep, I think I needed it from last night.

4 1/2- This next part's a mouthful... I think I've got Olga's syntax down though.


Captain: Alright, we'll set down here. Can you explain to me what it is you're building?
Olga: Okies. Ve know zhat zhe uhliens do not like zhe Iacchan Zun. Zhey hide from zhe sun via zhe Iacchan vax. Zhe sonic emitter iz able to produce inaudible vaves zhat penetrate Iacchus vax und leave nearby uhliens defenseless from zhe Iacchus zun.
Olga: Zhe sonic emitter and zhe Iacchan vax interact similarly to how certain sound frequencies can break glass. Zhe uhlien vax iz a lifeform zhat liquefies into a desirable mold, and hardens. When it hardens, it reflects zunlight, and zherefore, heat. Ve can temporarily remove zhe wax by breaking it, but since zhe vax is living, it quickly reforms itself to protect its inhabitant. Zhe best vay to remove zhe wax is by using zhe sonic emitter. Zhe sonic emitter emits a frequency zhat vill vibrate zhe air molecules around zhe wax at its resonant frequency, causing zhe vax to vibrate as vell, und unable to reform after it breaks. Zhe sonic emitter relies on 3D imaging to locate and destroy zhe vax, und continuously modulates zhe frequency to adapt to zhe vax reformation. Zhis modulation requires zhe emitter to be completely still. 
Captain: So anything in the sonic emitter's range is safe from enemy attacks?
Olga: Ah no no. Zhe uhliens no longer need zhe vax during zhe nighttime. Zhey can uhttack zhen. Anyzhing in zhe emitter's range vill be vax free, so ve may take and establish a perimeter. Ve vill have a main sonic emitter, and enough for zhree mini emitters. 

5p5: Finished the big bowl of cereal from earlier today.


5 1/2: Err... internetted.

6p6:
After the engineering team built the sonic emitter, our group was strengthened. We weren't constantly on the move or hiding from the aliens. We were still nomadic, but we would stand our ground.

End of Day 4 morning.

Day 5 Morning
Ten days ago...
Day Three since Invasion Day-
Elaine had fixed the intergalactic transmitter. We were hoping we would finally get out of here.

Isabel- Mayday mayday... Can anybody hear me!?
Bzzzt screeech.
Peeneye- Welcome to Pappie's Fast Food Vessel, where we take your order to anywhere in the Sol System, how can I help you?
The whole crew was filled with joy.
Isabel- This is Lieutenant Isabel of the Space Station Tyrell 451 orbiting Iacchus! Get me Earth Gov, now!
Peeneye- Oh another one of those distress calls... hold on let me relay the call... (sigh)

7p7
Our crew got a hold of help soon enough. We told of our plight, and we were bounced around multiple branches because nobody had the ability to help us, but eventually we reached EarthGov. Even EarthGov couldn't help us, however. 

The problem was that the Iacchus Space Station was very far from home. A rescue operation would take three years. A rescue ship was indeed launched a few days later, but the chances of surviving that long seemed grim.

We wanted an SFMT Ship. The 'super fast money travel' ship would get here in a matter of days. Unfortunately, while the ship itself is relatively inexpensive, it uses a special type of fuel made mostly of trilithium ore. The fuel is exorbitantly expensive. While EarthGov is indeed sympathetic to our cause as one of the first human expeditions, they decide not to send an SFMT. The cost to send one would probably put a whole first world country into deficit.

The rejection tore our hopes of ever returning to home alive.

Terra- Daddy! (hiss)
Terra's Dad- (hiss hiss) It's alright Terra. I'm doing everything I can to get my Lil' Lizzie home! I'm going to be on that rescue ship. Don't you worry, Daddy will get there as fast as he can and get his little crocababy outta there!
Terra- But it'll be too late! Don't go! (HISS!)
Terra's age is confusing. She is 70 Earth years old, but she has the mental and physical equivalence of an 18 year old human.... and possibly less mentally mature than 18, seeing how her father has raised her (shrug).

7 1/2
Mr. Kalibraata ended up spending his fortunes on lottery tickets to try to win an SFMT. The bad news broke a few days ago when we heard that he didn't win. 

Out of all of our messages sent home, Stella's surprised everyone the most.

Stella: Attention all metubers! EarthGov won't help you! They waste taxpayers money by passing the time with legislation on holographic murder simulators, while WE'RE HERE getting attacked by ZOMBIES! Since when did EarthGov become so inhumane that they won't help someone clearly in need! Just look at the footage!!

8p8- I was invited to my friend's house to smoke a bowl. Rejected. I don't require any extra friendship at the time, and while I do find that pot can be a very good anti-depressant, I don't want to waste the time (and I'm not depressed). Let's just get back to work.

Stella pointed the camcorder at a warzone. She recorded hardened heroines firing at zombies. Pure survival of the fittest.

Back home, the internet blew up over the footage in a matter of hours. They couldn't believe what they were seeing. Zombies. Hot Babes. Soon enough, the whole galaxy was watching, and human and alien alike discuss in the comments section below.

From there, we had a plan. We would make our plight into a TV show.

End of Day 5 morning.

Day 6 Morning
Ten days ago...
Day Four since Invasion Day-

Just a day after that, we were in a conference call with the network executives at ZYX Broadcasting and Tyrell, the mining company that brought us here. The negotiations were fast, and we quickly settled on a contract to exclusively distribute the show "The Dark Planet" to audiences across the galaxy. 

8 1/2- Wrote out a snail mail letter, equipped self for outdoor journey.

10p10- Ran, bought supplies including supplements that should boost concentration levels. Did some more exercises. Showered.

11p11- Ate a big meal. Bread and brie, a sandwich, muscle milk, buncha supplements...

11 1/2- Internetted. Pretty tired.

12a12- Working on stellaGunPose...

1a13- Slow and steady. 



2a14-Working on zoeBikini. 

2 1/2- Worked a little more on zoeBikini, reported in. Going to play an hour of video games to try to stay up, and then go to bed at 15.5h

AD3 work- 8.25h
Life work- 2.25h
Eating- 2.5h
Internet- 1.25h
Video gaming- 1h

Notes- Since the start of my caffeine detox, I've noticed that I've started to oversleep. A symptom of this is me feeling fatigued and ready to go to bed at the 13th hour. I'm sleeping an average of 10 hours a day... not good. So new plan: I'm going to go to sleep at the 15.5th hour, at the same time every day. For years, an untrained and unscheduled sleep cycle has served me well, but over the past week it has been deleterious. However I do not know if it is because of the effects of the detox, or the effects of being off caffeine in general. It is my belief that it is the latter case. Hopefully, getting rid of oversleeping will make me feel less tired throughout the day. Caffeine detox has been a lot of trouble. Good and bad.

On a more positive note, I'm seeing a definite increase in appetite as well as a minor increase in muscle mass. Eating for 2.5 hours is a bit too long. I'm a very slow eater, and I did eat a lot today though.


Report- Tiredness was a large factor in today's results, which were only passingly satisfactory. An improved sleeping schedule, as well as new supplements should improve concentration abilities. Grade B-.
