After being dragged from the turbo lift and into his quarters, Joe groans as he sits up from his bed.

He looks up at the ceiling"Computer...what time is it?"

"The time is 1750 hours" The computer chirps, he then groans and plants his feet on the ground but rubs his head as he feels somewhat dizzy. Looking down, Joe realizes he's still dawned in his dress uniform, he slowly stands up moving to his closet and exchanges the uniform for a tank top and gym shorts.

"Computer, open a comm with Attache T'Pora Rush..." Instantly, the figure of a petite Vulcan woman with dark red hair tied in a large bun appears on screen. Joe replicates a bag of ice as his head is still throbbing and swings a chair over to his desk and sits down.

"Joseph! Are...you okay?" Her voice is quickly drowned out by the sound of a jet engine roaring to life and she moves out of an old hangar. Joe raises an eyebrow as he looks at the screen watching T'Pora move to a quieter location.

"I'm...fine Peaches, what are you doing at the museum?" He hiccups a little before he swivels the chair to face the screen.

"Oh, your grandfather was showing me one of the new projects they recently picked up... are you drunk?" She raises a Vulcan like eyebrow at the ice pack on Joe's forehead.

Joe sighs removing the pack. "You caught me...there was a promotion ceremony earlier today. Figured having a drinking contest with some friends was a good way to uh...celebrate."

"You sound like you regret doing that."

He nods slowly before putting the ice pack on again. "The contest it self I didn't regret...it was the drink. It was a challenge of seeing who can down three shots of the strongest drink quickly."

T'Pora giggles with her hand covering her mouth. "I certainly hope you won yes?"

The ensign sighs leaning back in his chair before placing his feet on the desk. "Sadly, no, I lost to the recently promoted Lieutenant Auray of all people."

"The one you consider a sister yes? Mmm, aside from being a little disappointed that you lost did you at least finish the drinks?" T'Pora says as she makes her way into a lounge and sits down on a couch.

Joe nods firmly as he sets the pack down on the desk "You know me Peaches, I don't leave a good drink unfinis-" He pauses before snapping his fingers remembering his conversation with the Captain "Oh! Your going to love this, I talked the Captain into officiating our wedding!"

T'Pora perks up and smiles. "Really? That's amazing, how many of the crew are you inviting? Not counting the Captain of course."

"Uh I've invited two so far still need to ask around see who's interested."

T'Pora nods slowly. "My side of the party is completed, take your time on the invitations, I know its going to be a while before we see each other again. I'm going to be doing more assignments locally until then. And JJ? Please stay safe out there."

He sighs then smiles. "You too Peaches..."

With that T'Pora closes the channel leaving Joe sighing heavily thus ending the log.
