The Very Secret Diary of Major Samantha Carter, Ph.D.

AUTHOR'S NOTES: Thanks again to Tinagilman and Allie O'N for their great beta work. *hugs*


Day One

Soil samples. Is that all I do now? I have a Ph.D. in Theoretical Astrophysics, and I’m sitting here taking soil samples! Yes, I know I'm on another planet, but couldn't they find some airman to do this? Bo-ring!

At least I'm the prettiest.

Day Two

More soil samples. Holy Hannah this is dull! The only thing worse about this place is the people. There is no way that I'm interested in talking about farming!

later

I think that Daniel is looking at Jack "that way" again. I'll kill him if he tries anything.

Day Three

There will be an interesting combustion of debris in the atmosphere tonight as the planet passes through a meteor shower. Certainly worth watching from a scientific perspective. Better than digging soil samples, that's for sure.

Day Four

Laira, that trollop from the village, was all over Jack last night. I'll kill her if she tries anything!

later

Jack sent Danny and I back to figure out what happened with that close meteor. Have to say I didn't notice - was too busy giving Laira the evil eye. Turns out things could get nasty. Sucks being them!

Day Five

Evacuating the population as larger and larger meteors hit. Jack went off to find Laira's kid - or something. Teal'c and I were almost blown through the 'gate. It's too risky to try the 'gate again today. Hope Jack is okay.

Still the prettiest!

Day Six

The 'gate is buried or something, as we can't send anything through. This means Jack is stuck with Laira the Trollop. So help me if she tries anything, I'll kill her!

Day Seven

Danny says the soonest our so-called allies can get a ship there is a year from now. For cryin' out loud, don't these people have hyperspeed?

Have to come up with a way of getting Jack back.

Day Ten

Uncle George bought my idea. He knows I'm the prettiest. Now I have to make the damn thing!

Day Eleven

Why is it that parts requisitions come in quintuplicate?

Day Thirteen

Finally getting started. Wanted to ask for Sergeant Siler's help, but apparently he had to strip down all the MALP's to solve a technical glitch. Why didn't I know about that?

Day Fifteen

Is it time for dinner yet?

Day Seventeen

They're out of Jell-O in the mess hall. This would never happen if Jack were around. Someone is going to pay!

Day Eighteen

Banned from the mess hall for a month. Apparently the cooks don't appreciate me giving them a piece of my mind. Doesn't being the prettiest count for anything? Have to get someone to pick up my meals for me. I wonder if Jan will do that.

Day Twenty-three

Janet told me that today was Monday. How can that be? I was sure it was Friday. What happened to the weekend?

Need to concentrate more on being an aloof, unobtainable AF Major. Damn. That lasted all of 10 seconds. Must save Jack from the trollop!

Hope he remembers I'm the prettiest.

Day Thirty-seven

Does anyone know what season this is?

Day Forty-one

Ran into Teal'c in the corridor today. Has he been avoiding me? He certainly seemed to almost flee after just a few seconds of conversation. Strange.

Day Forty-nine

Siler is stripping down all the MALP's again. Didn't he do that just last week? *checks diary* Hang on, it can't have been 5 weeks ago!

Day Fifty-six

Do you know how hard it is to make a particle accelerator?

later

Banned from the mess hall. Again. How is it my fault that they were out of Jell-O?

Day Sixty-two

Jan seemed concerned today. I think she has figured out that Jack means more to me than a commanding officer should. I'll kill her if she says anything.

In other news, still the prettiest!

Day Sixty-eight

I'm sure that Siler is avoiding me. Now he says he has to run a Level 1 diagnostic on the generator systems. I think he's pulling my leg. Doesn't he know he's supposed to be at my beck and call because I'm the prettiest?

Day Seventy-four

Damn it! Why won't this thing work!

later

Perhaps I shouldn't have thrown that oscilloscope at the wall.

Day Eighty-eight

What happened to the last two weeks?

Day Eighty-nine

Went home and discovered that my power and water had been shut off due to non-payment of bills. What do they mean it's more than 90 days overdue?

Have sneaking suspicion that am no longer the prettiest.

Day Ninety

Danny is preening. He hasn't somehow become the prettiest, has he? Bitch!

Day Ninety-five

It works! It works!

later

CRAP! What happened?

Day Ninety-six

Teal'c stopped by to visit today. I think he was trying to get away from Danny. Didn't stay long though. No idea why. I think Danny is a pervy Jaffa lover!

Work you stupid lump of metal! Work!

Day Ninety-eight

It really is working this time! *bounces for joy*

Teal'c is going to go through the 'gate and save Jack.

later

What do you mean he's been there three months already?

Day Ninety-nine

No word from Teal'c. If I still haven't heard anything later I'm going through myself. Will. Not. Let. The. Trollop. Win. Jack.

Day One Hundred

Went through the 'gate. Jack is safe! But he hugged that tramp! Bitch! Jack is so going to pay for that!

later

Teal'c gave me his C4. Boy will someone be in for a surprise tonight!

Need to get some good beauty sleep so I can be prettiest again.

~end~

Thanks for reading.  I’m always looking for ways to improve my writing.  Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!
