Journal of Dana K. Scully
August 1, 2000
I can hardly believe it's August already. Summer seems to fly by
when one spends a good part of one's time with one's head in the toilet
or
garbagepail. And it's only two more months until Nabisco officially
starts
manufacturing Mallomars again! My emergency supply should hold out
until then.
Byers, Langley and Frohike have been real sweethearts since my
partner's been abducted. Byers found a tape recorded message from Mulder
to
listen to in the event he ever "disappeared:"
>
Scully: If you're listening to this, it means I must have gone the
blessing way. I know you'll keep looking for me until you find me, but I
also understand how painfully lonely it gets when your partner is
missing. Know that I understand you need the reassuring presence of
another
person as you go this journey alone, but please, STAY AWAY from
vampires. I've
given Byers instructions to deliver a package to you to help you keep up
your
courage until I'm returned. Your one in six billion eighty-six million
eight hundred eighty-five thousand nine hundred thirteen (as of 6/1/00),
Mulder.
I play that message over and over again whenever I'm
lonely, which
isn't often since Byers made his delivery. I think it's really touching
that Mulder sat through a body scanner after getting his ass kicked by
Jade Blue Afterglo just to have a personal memento made to keep me
company in
the event of his absence.

I just wish it was made out of a more flexible medium than plaster.
And that it was more anatomically correct.

Anyway, it sure is good to have a man around the house again.
