Doctor's Log

August 30, 2004

Well, two major things happened today. Operation CGBH went into action and the base got a visit from Storm Shadow.

Leatherneck spent a lot of the day calling Low Light on his cell phone to update him, and then Low Light would text message him back. Then he would pass a note to Gung Ho about the conversation. They did this so Beach Head didn't know what was going on. Beach Head, for his part, refused to speak to any of them today.

I'm not sure what they're up to, but I do know Leatherneck sent Covergirl emails from a "Secret Admirer." God knows what he wrote in the emails. They were going to put it from Beach Head until I pointed out that he didn't have access to the internet, so he couldn't possibly send the emails. They decided that she'd be suspicious of this and changed it to being from a secret admirer. I probably should have kept my mouth shut and stayed out of it.

Of course, whatever else they would have done today was cut short by Storm Shadow's "visit." During his escape from the base, the ninja somehow ended up in the infirmary. Beach Head, Gung Ho, and Low Light stared at him for a moment until the crazy Ranger pointed a finger at the other two and yelled for Storm Shadow to kill them.

A surprise Storm Shadow just gave them a "What the bloody hell?" look before he slipped away.

I had several people with injuries come in after that. Spirit came in with a sword wound. Rather than have the calming effect I was hoping for, the guys somehow talked him into joining their mad escapade. God knows how, I have a headache thinking about it. Maybe Spirit will keep things from getting out of hand.

But since he's a Shaman, Gung Ho was asking if he knew any "Shamanic stuff", as he put it, to help them out. Spirit said he'd see. Beach Head's ready to beat his head against a wall. I know Spirit's one of the Joes he highly respects (Who doesn't?), but I think the Native American just made it onto Beach Head's 'To Kill' list.

I'm still trying to figure out how Spirit got himself talked into this. Maybe some of those medicinal herbs that Shamans use have killed some of his brain cells. He didn't have a blow to the head, I checked again just to make sure.

Operation CGBH is currently enlisting the aid of Gung Ho, Low Light, Leatherneck, and now Spirit. Oh God. I almost feel sorry for Beach Head. Almost.
