David: Another Lazy Sunday

I woke up screaming. Again. I was starting to worry that I would never get used to weightlessness. Something instinctive kept panicking at unguarded moments, thinking I was falling.

I ripped the Velcro and floated out of bed, pausing on the way to the water reclamation unit to look out a viewport. Blackness of the purest and deepest sort surrounded the ship. Stupid unconscious. Even if I were falling, there’s nothing out here to hit.

Breakfast was a tube of sausage and eggs.

I checked the alert board. All clear.

I tried the radio again. Still no response from Earth.
