My Ready Room
I want to describe for you what my ready room looks like so that you can envision the scene when I tell you I am in it.
We will start with the wall, I have a beautiful picture of one of Earth's fabled beasts, the dreaded, fire-breathing dragon. He is a large, winged, lizard-type reptile, with a large flaired plate behind his head. His coloring ranges from blues and purples, depending on how the light is hitting his skin. Even though legend made him out to be a killer, he is magnificient to behold in this picture.
Also on this wall, I have the replicator to get my Earl Grey tea, Hot, and whatever else I need when I find myself needing to either spend long hours in here or to be able to have time to think. The smell of the tea is something that I wish you could experience for yourself, but even in this day and time, there isn't smell-o-vision. Let me try to explain it to you, the main ingredient is Bergamot, and it has a strong, pungent aroma, that makes your mouth water. But be warned, it can also give you a headache if you smell it too long by itself, I have also found that some people have found the taste and the smell unfriendly to their palates.
My desk is kind of a break from regulations, I insisted on a real wooden desk, boy did that take some talking. It had to be specially made, of course, so that it met the weight requirements of a starship. It is made of Red Oak and is the required length and depth, couldn't get them to budge on that, but I did get a middle drawer on it, heehee.
I have a couch for my visitors, two chairs, and another requirement that I pushed through, I got myself a reclining chair, for those nights that I don't leave my ready room. My reclining chair is made of a soft fabric and once you sit in it, the temperature adjusts to the level you request from the computer. It is perfect for that little power nap needed in between those tedious duty reports that are required even of ship CO's.
Well, you all know what the entrance doors look and sound like, so I don't have to explain those, do I?
Enjoy my ready room and please feel free to drop by and give a report.
