Whew! I think Carley and I are FINALLY settled into our quarters! She's been so cute running around here. She's really excited about a new place, and looks around with those blue eyes so wide, trying to take everything in at once. It's adorable!

The two of us had a nice time staying with my parents the last few months. I know I needed the time off to allow Carley a chance to really get close to me--which she did. She's also gotten rather attached to Lyndon. In Carley's eyes, the man can do no wrong! He can take down massive Klingons single handedly, and still have enough energy to battle with the entire Romulan fleet..... Ah, the confidence of a child!

Speaking of our time with Mom and Dad, a very sad thing happened while we were there. Jim, my darling cat, died. Poor thing was so old he just gave up. Even toward the end he had some of that kitten-like energy occasionally. Carley and I both miss him. We did get a new pet, a puppy this time. Cinnamon is a Pomeranian and adorable (and thankfully small! A big dog wouldn't be to welcome in our quarters.)

I think something is really wrong with Kylah. Since we've arrived on DS13 it seems as if she's lost that usual vivaciousness. She hasn't flirted with a single man the entire time we've been here. That REALLY has me worried. Very unlike Kylah. She seems depressed and listless. I'm really concerned about her, but afraid to press too much. Kylah has a tendency to close off if you push her too hard. Maybe I can get her alone for a Girls Night Out and she'll tell me what's wrong.......

It's time for me to sign off. Another long day tomorrow....
