Almost 48 hours.

I have no idea how you LAN-party geeks can stand the taste of Red Bull, but I have to admit, chase it down with some Excedrin and you can keep sharp all through the night. I think I recall eating ... something on Monday.

Reactive frequency white noise generators were the easy part, once Doctor MacTaggart brought down the vibranium paneling. Stuff's a bitch to work without a plasma torch, though. So, of course, they brought me a plasma torch. I love this place.

Fiber-optic sutures, now THOSE were a stroke of genius. I can't believe no one thought of that before. Wait, yes I can. Because I'm the most brilliant mind on the planet, baby!

I helped save someone's life over the past two days, they tell me. And I'm not sure if that's more of a rush than all the caffeine. And, I mean, it was easy. No one gave me any shit about needing materials or space to work or soda or anything.

Now if I could only remember how the hell I got back up to my room. And where the hell my pants went.

I made something that saved someone's life. This is so cool.

Er...

...It is Monday. Still. For almost another half hour. I hope you've eaten since last Monday.

Want a snack? Oatmeal, venison, some of the approaching-infinite variety Lorna's been producing? I've been chased out of the medlab again on the grounds of minimizing the exhausted people to the absolutely necessary and most experienced.

It's not MY fault someone grabbed me after I'd pulled an all-nighter.

Venison's deer, right? I think I had some when I was a kid. With all the carbs I've scarfed down over the last couple days, I think I could use some protein. And some Advil. Good god, my brain feels like God on a seventh-day amphetamine bender...

Venison's deer. We have a rather fresh one.

Protein and painkillers on the way. Also orange juice, because unless you've any problems with citrus, it seems like a good idea.

As long as it's not fluorescent green and tasting like a nine-volt battery, it's welcome. Because I am thirsty. Miracle working makes one sweat.

That just sounds scary.

I'm glad you were here.
