Diary Entry-Dances with Storsie

Loch Storsjon had more than a few surprises in store for us. The biggest one involved a ‘mind meld’ with Storsie! I connected with Storsjon’s most famous inhabitant and it was something else.

It was magical! Somehow, just by making contact with Storsie, I was able to read its thoughts! I got a glimpse into the mind of this remarkable, aquatic creature. I saw its past.

I saw the journeys it has been on. I saw it swimming astride Nessie. It was a glimpse of a world I will never forget.

I tried to share some of myself with Storsie. I don’t know if what I ‘shared’ was particularly useful . I dredged up some memories of my favorite Loch of all time, Loch Tahoe!

I shared memories of the last time we went there as a family. I was ten years ago. I think. We had an awesome time on that vacation. Even on the lone rainy day, we still had a blast. We took in a cheesy double feature of the Crater Lake Monster and Harry and the Hendersons.

I don’t know if we ever did another family movie night like that again. When (not if) we get back home, I am hosting one. Attendance will be mandatory.

We’ll have to find two, quality, cheesy flicks that rival what we saw at Tahoe. Tommy is the king of cheesy flicks. Maybe he’s watching one now, wherever he is.

I think Storsie understood what I shared somehow. The purring noise it was making changed when the memories of my summer at Tahoe came bubbling to the surface. Pops seems to think the purring noise these creatures emit may be useful.

Unbeknownst to me, he augmented the SIREN to capture sonic frequencies, not just send them. In placing the purring frequencies over the wormhole frequency, Pops thinks we may be able to eventually tell one of these creatures where we want to go.

Granted, this assumes the correct message is conveyed to the creature. I am not sure how memories of my summer at Tahoe from a decade ago helps our cause. But, I suppose we will find out soon.

I can’t believe Pops hid from me the improvements he made to the SIREN! Well, did he really hide it from me? Is failing to disclose something truly hiding something?

If failing to disclose certain pieces of information can be considered hiding, I have done some hiding of my own. Pops doesn’t know about me and Phoebe. One of these days, I will share it with him.

But, I think he may be struggling with the fact that things are changing. I’m changing. I’m blossoming into my womanhood! Whatever that means.

I’m not the little girl he once knew. I sometimes wish I still was. Life felt easier back then.

Oof! The Trident is clearly closing in on our next destination. The re-entry has gotten a bit old. Just once it would be nice to have an easy, smooth landing. Is that too much to ask?

Until the next wormhole, this is Jess….signing off…
