Fifteenth in the Chronicles of Shoreleave

Feedback: Yes please. Archive: ASCEM, others please ask.

Disclaimer: I'm just hoping to provide some people with some enjoyable
reading and am only hoping for some good feedback in return.

(yes, I do think that sometimes Kirk and Spock might sometimes take
leave away from each other for various reasons - as difficult as it
may be! ;-).

The letters will not necessarily be in sequential order according to
stardate - there might be gaps but don't worry about them. I hope you
all enjoy!

I miss you already.

I have found it is much harder to be without you than it was the last
time.   I have been thinking about and missing you.

How was it seeing your family again?  I hope they are all well.  Give
them  my greetings.

After I dropped you off on Saturday, I had to hurry home. I am
admittedly  surprised that I did not recessive a speeding ticket. I
reached the lecture hall on time. The lecture was a success, I
believe.   There were 300 people present - perhaps we will see an
increase in  enrollment at the VSA.  My aunt and uncle watched me
speak. I believe they  found it satisfactory.

On Sunday, we hiked in the L-langon Mountains.  We followed a trail
which  led to the ruins of a temple.  I found the place quite
aesthetically  pleasing. I must take you there in the future. We ate
lunch at the end of  the trail near a dry riverbed.

My aunt and uncle left for Earth yesterday. I was nearly in an
accident on  my way to the spaceport.  I will admit to you that the
experience was quite  nerve-wracking.

Classes start tomorrow.  I am teaching a Quantum Physics course. I
have been  preparing my first lecture.

You must take many holos of Sicily so I can see where all you have
traveled.

I miss you far too much. I do not enjoy being here without you.  I
believe  that you are not the only one who has troubles when we are
not together.  I,  too, have been discontent since you left.  I have
been restless and brooding  and impatient with my family.  The only
thing that seems to help remedy this  is working and studying
constantly.

You should not take leave away from me again - I believe being
together  benefits us more. I will talk to you tomorrow.


Love,

Spock
