Author's Note: I've decided that this is going to be a very slightly alternate universe to ours. Not that it isn't already. But this is mostly just because I don't want Janet to be dead. And it's my story, so now she isn't. Yay. Is this a good point to mention that I don't own anything, not even the computer I'm typing this on?

January 5th

Wedding dilemmas solved: 0
Chocolate bars eaten today: 3
Distance from Jack: about 6500 light years

Have been forgetting to write again. Is v. bad. Still, am blaming terrible heart-wrenching situation that find self in. Am not getting any further. Seems that have come to impasse with Jack, where we can talk about anything but 'the issue'. Is v. sad.

On slightly more up-beat note, have finished depressing Christmas/New Years holidays and am now back on active duty. Am currently on P7H 93D (possibly, could actually be 93B, or maybe even 98D, wasn't really paying much attention in briefing). As result of karma-in-action, Jack has v. bad stomach ache and is stuck back on Earth. Cannot decide if am happy or sad about it. Sigh.

January 6th

Chocolate bars eaten: 5 (will run out soon, v. bad)
Distance from Jack: still about 6500 light years
Interesting things on P7H-thingy: 1 (my chocolate bars, and they will be gone soon)

Still have not returned to Earth. Daniel has found v. interesting (to him) ruins which he insists are v. important, and will probably save Earth at some time in future. Great. Am so over the whole 'saving-the-world' thing. Would rather be married to Jack and safe at home instead.

On second thoughts, is not such bad thing. Cannot really complain about being hero and all that. Will make good stories to tell grandchildren. If ever marry Jack so that can have some. Hmph.

January 7th

World changing revelations: 1
Chocolate bars eaten: lets not even go there

Got back from P7H-whatchamacallit this morning only to have whole world thrown upside down before breakfast. Have just found out that General Hammond has retired, and that promotion is being given to Jack! Am v. happy, obviously, only now problem of relationship is even bigger than before. Gah, why is life never simple?

Have finally spoken to Janet, as could bear it no longer on my own. Friend was v. nice and helpful, providing excellent shoulder to cry on. Also suggested shocking idea that am relying on chocolate bars to calm nerves. Pah. Well, possibly she has a point, but at least chocolate is not life threatening or addictive. Much.

January 8th

Chocolate bars eaten: 3 (could be much worse)
New surprises:2 (v. good)

Have just been informed by Jack in not-so-awkward conversation (which was v. nice for a change) that will be taking on command of SG-1, at least for time being. Yay! Is v. good.He also hinted at idea of own promotion to Lieutenant Colonel to match his promotion to Brigadier General. Like that idea v. much, as will complete one of own resolutions, even before end of January! Is v. good. Love life.

Will be strange going off-world without Jack, but at least can stop worrying about him all the time. Worrying about Daniel alone should be a full time job, and one cannot afford to not worry about him, else he walks into an innocent set of ruins that turns out to be a complicated alien trap to recruit new subjects for their gruesome alien gladitorial games. Or some other such danger.

AN2: Sorry that this wasn't v. long. I put it to you in a mathematical way that Sam would approve of:
lots of reviews-> happy author-> longer chapters in future
Have a nice day!
:D
