LtCmdr Harriman Personal Log after the Battle of the Rift

Now that the "Battle of the Rift" is over, we find ourselves awaiting a new ship.... Our Galaxy Class ship has more holes in it than swiss cheese and I hate it! Unfortunately, I don't know anyway that could have avoided the damage, as we had to stay in position so that Captain Albright could close the Rift. We lost good Starfleet in this battle, including Captain Albright. I'm not too sure if they are in another part of space or if they are destroyed, but I think I will assume that they are well and exploring new frontiers. I think I'll miss our Galaxy ship, despite it's size making it difficult to maneuver....After all, it was home.

I was very unnerved after the Challenger had gone missing...until I knew Darby was well. I find myself really falling for him. It's fun to be with him. He's supported me through so much, even when I wasn't myself literally. When D'Kar and I were one. He didn't waver his support. It's good to have such a person in my life.

Things are really changing for our crew. I've heard that we will be assigned to the USS Farragut, an excelsior class ship. I will have to spend some time acquainting myself and our helmsmen with the capabilities and such, while we are waiting orders. Daroos was promoted to Commander and I've heard that Commander Gav will be our 1st officer... That's interesting. He's quite knowledgeable, but seems like a grump at times. I hope this isn't the case. My friend Azala is doing better, but it's still difficult not referring to her as LtCmdr Pren, as it's Doln now. I'm not sure I understand her culture and the whole process of getting a symbioant... Perhaps she'll help me understand some day.

I haven't heard anything from Mom or Dad, nor Betsy or Jacob in quite a while. I suppose no news is good news. I hope that they received word that everything was cleared up and I was back in Starfleet... Perhaps they didn't. Is this why I haven't heard from them???
