Captain’s Log, Ship’s Day 8453

Great news today—Backyard Bob came out of his coma at about 1300. He was a bit disoriented and more than a bit stiff—after all, he’s been a coma for eight months—but seemed otherwise all right. He asked for a steak. We have more than enough livestock, especially given our reduced population, so I called a party. Steaks for everybody!

It’s nice to have a hope spot for once. We’ve been through so much…the reclamations, the murders, the Archbishop and his cronies, the freaking Earth blowing up and nine billion people dying…

At least now, things are starting to look up. It’s great to have Backyard Bob back with us again.
