Fire on the Spaceship

Translated with Secret Alien Technology:


There I was, flying home from my favorite martini bar, when my spaceship's console burst into flames. I grabbed the extinguisher and a bucket of sand as warning sirens wailed and the ship lurched. My heart pounded in fear as I punched in the emergency codes, triggering the auto pilot with one hand, and dousing the fire with the other.

After a grueling several minutes of combatting the flames, the fire was out and I had gained control once again. I thought, If only I had a help mate. A Co-pilot aboard, and in life, the damage to the ship may have been better contained. Was I destined to die alone in a spaceship crash without ever falling in love?

As I surveyed the damage, I thought of my cousin, wondering if he had tampered with my spaceship as he had done in the past. But there had been no word or sighting of him in months. It was as if he had vanished to some magical, winter wonderland.

Perhaps, he had perished alone first.

Hey Alien!
Wow, I bet that was super-scary! You sure do need a lady-friend...maybe Princess Leia?!? She likes the outer space type.
Grr and Woof,

hey Alien,

What a bittersweet post. Very scary, and I commend you on your bravery! Job well done! But I feel sad that you feel sad and alone at times. There is someone out there for you, someone you can love and who will love you back. Don't give up hope - she is out there waiting for you!

As for your cousin, I think he is in a secret hide-away planning his next move.
