Doctor's Log
September 2, 2004
How in the five blazes of hell did they get alcohol!!?? They tried to hide it when I came it, but it was so obvious. As if I wouldn't smell it on their breath anyway. They had a whole stash underneath Gung Ho's bed! There was a box of Budweiser, two bottles of tequila, and a bottle of whiskey. I have a strong suspicion that it was either Low Light or Leatherneck.
Needless to say, I lost it this morning and I shouldn't have. But between the writing on the wall and the alcohol, I was angry. I said a few obscenities that I always make sure NOT to say. Beach Head and Gung Ho stared at me with kind of a deer in the headlights look. I guess they weren't expecting me to react quite like that.
I had Mainframe come in and install security cameras in the infirmary after that. I even threatened them by saying I'd post a guard if they couldn't stay out of trouble. They were unusually quiet after this.
General Hawk had heard about the marker on the wall and had come in with Duke just as I was yelling at them about the alcohol. I thought their jaws were going to hit the floor. Anyway, with the appearance of the Tomahawk (and Duke), I managed to finally confiscate the markers. They were pretty creative. Beach Head had the black and red markers taped to the underside of his bed and Gung Ho had the green marker taped under his.
Because of the marker on my walls, the General told them that they'd have to repaint my walls when they were physically able. I'm debating between white again or a maybe a soft blue or green color. Blue and green are supposed to be calming colors. Maybe I'll make them clean the windows and mop the floor while they're at it.
Beach Head and Gung Ho kept a wary eye on me the rest of the day. Beach Head decided it was safer to read than anything else and Gung Ho pretended to sleep.
Leatherneck and Low Light better hope whenever I see them that I'm in a better mood than I'm in right now.
