I'm still in the middle of my away mission. Does it still count as an away mission when it's a trip to your home planet? My legs are covered in mosquito bites and we had ham, collard greens, sweet potatoes and biscuits for dinner last night--all signs I've returned to the mountain South. Actually, it's pretty nice.
Last night I even introduced my sister to DS9. Not with the pilot or anything--I don't have time for that; I have a schedule to keep. Anyway "Tribunal" was next up in my queue so that's what we watched.
Some key quotes from the viewing:
Ayla- Who's that?
Me- Chief Obrien. He's the chief engineer.
Ayla-Cool. He reminds me of Mrs. Patmore...who are those ladies?
Me-(long explanation of Kira and Dax)
Ayla- Ok. So they're engineers too.
Me- Ummm...
Ayla-That's cool. I like that.
After a while she settled down. I couldn't tell if she was into it or just falling asleep but this morning she came in and asked me of we could watch another one. So I think that's a pretty good sign.
Anyway, my away mission continues. I'll let you know how it goes.
I love that first thrill when you can see you're about make your sibling as much of a fan of ST as you are. My brother has all the DVD's of all the series ... I'm so proud I could burst.
