But never to Star Trek until now&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>From <a href=\"http:\/\/us.imdb.com\/Title?0112178\">Star Trek: Voyager<\/a> &quot;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.tvtome.com\/StarTrekVoyager\/season5.html#ep111\">The Disease<\/a>&quot;:<\/p>\n<p><b>Captain Janeway<\/b>: You&#8217;ve got 30 seconds before I have Tuvok drag you to sickbay.<br \/><b>Ensign Kim<\/b>:  Captain I am not sick! I didn&#8217;t disobey orders because I&#8217;m under some alien influence, I disobeyed your orders because Tal and I are in love, and its not right for you to keep us apart.<br \/><b>Janeway<\/b>: You listen to yourself. You don&#8217;t sound anything like the Harry Kim I know.<br \/><b>Kim<\/b>: Good I have served this ship for five years and said &#8220;yes ma&#8217;am&#8221; to every one of your orders but not this time.<br \/><b>Janeway<\/b>: Your willing to risk your rank your career over this?<br \/><b>Kim<\/b>: Have you ever been in love captain?<br \/><b>Janeway<\/b>: Your point?<br \/><b>Kim<\/b>: Did your skin ever flush when you were near another person? Did your stomach ever feel like someone hallowed it out with a knife when you were apart?  Did your throat ever swell when you realized it over?  Seven of Nine told me Seven of Nine told me loves like a disease, well maybe it is. Pheromones, endorphins, chemicals in our blood, changing our responses, physical discomfort, but anyway you look at its still love.<br \/><b>Janeway<\/b>: For the sake of argument lets say your right, your feelings for Tal are no different than mine for &#8230; What? the man I was engaged to marry.  Well I lost him and your going to lose Tal. You know that.  What the Doctor is offering you is a way to ease the pain.<br \/><b>Kim<\/b>: That man you were going to marry if you could&#8217;ve just taken a hypo-spray to make yourself stop loving him so that it didn&#8217;t hurt so much when you were away from him would you have done that?<\/p>\n<p>(A disruption takes them away to the bridge.)<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>I know I wouldn&#8217;t have taken that hypo-spray.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve also been reading Shawn&#8217;s eJournal.  Despite the fact that I swore off him or so I thought, I never really stopped reading his eJournal.  I&#8217;m still stuck hoping.  I likely am going to see him this weekend at the <a href=\"http:\/\/multiculturalcenter.osu.edu\/glbtss\/mblgtacc.html\">2003 Midwest BLGTA College Conference<\/a>.  I don&#8217;t want to scare him away.  But I just read his entry <a href=\"http:\/\/www.eblend.org\/archives\/000130.html\">Life has been odd lately&#8230;<\/a>, and I&#8217;m stuck with the impression that I took advantage of someone who was down.  I knew from almost the beginning that he had just lost his mother, but he seemed to be dealing with it pretty well, so I didn&#8217;t give it much thought.  I felt that if he wanted to bring it up he would, and I had no right to pry. I&#8217;m just not sure if I&#8217;m a weed.  (Sigh)  <\/p>\n<p>I know I wanna make a second try at this, I just do.  But is it worth the pain a second time?  Plus, it isn&#8217;t my decision.  I know I cannot make this decision, I&#8217;ve decided my half of it, and I&#8217;m doing my best to leave the door open if he decides that he wants to be with me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Okay, I cry to television and movies every once in a while.
