Good evening logbook! I have discovered the cause of my tiredness being the fact that for the past week, I have been working, doing the tours, and working again, to the point where I haven't gotten out of the station and the working mindset to give myself some time to myself. I decided to ask my sister Elizabetha if she would like to explore the town, and to my surprise, she said yes. I did warn her about her man-craziness, and that we shall be in the public eye, and she told me to not worry. She took me to this lovely store where they sold what humans call makeup. Now, I've never heard of this before, so it did pique my interest, and when I tell you how interesting it is, best know that it is.
So many colors and uses for everything! A lovely worker girl was able to help me out while Elizabetha was left to her own devices, and I ended up choosing whats called a lip scrub, as it will help keep my lips moisturized during these colder months. I am surprised on how helpful it is, and more surprised that my sister was able to be "normal" for once! I suppose thats about everything for tonight.

Today marks the first day of doing tours of the station! Now I ofcourse did do all my duties beforehand, however the day went by splendid nonetheless. After the singular tour, I decided it was time to learn more about the humans, so that I may understand them more, and be able to blend in more. I stopped by the local library, where I grabbed a book on upkeping ones health, a book on something called psychology, which is apparently the study on how humans think, and a final book on different forms of communicating as a keeper. Reading through the book on health, I got to learn that all humans suffer of this reflex of fear, in where if one is in a "life or death" situation in an animalistic sense, they will either want to run, fight, or freeze. A bit odd, to freeze, in such a situation, but I suppose thats humans for you.
I did however get the chance to see Mr. Keely today! He was kind enough to offer me a nice and warm meal, using some of his left over pickles. Thanks to Mrs. Osslik, I know what pickles are, and didn't look too odd to the elderly fisherman. Unfortunately, I had plans to go out and buy a mirror for my quarters, but with the rain, I did not want to risk getting soaked or dropping it while making my way back. Hopefully I'll find one this week.

Good rainy eve dear log book! I first must apologize for bit writing last night, and to be honest, my reasoning was laziness. No matter, I am writing one as of right now. Not too many tasks today, due to the 3 tours.
Now, what I haven't mentioned is that a singular tour, can be from 1-2 hours long, depending on the group! For some strange reason, my first tour group, is usually a small one, so it only takes me an hour to give this tour, however, the other 2 are a lot more popular! I expected humans to hate being in the wind and rain at 5 pm, which is when the last tour starts, but there were no complaints!
I don’t have much else to say, however, today was my first time buying food from one of the modern food shops in town. I hated it. Not only did it take 30 minutes for me to get my food, it tasted very fake. I shall stick to the local pubs, where I can chat with the fishermen, and eat much better homemade food.

I must apologize for not writing a log last night. I was very occupied with making sure that the station was prepared for the inspector, and goodness was that one of my best ideas yet, as the inspector came right as I had finished up. I do not know how I faired, however, I was told that sometime tomorrow, I shall recieve a letter with my results. Only 2 tours today, instead of the normal 3, as I was way too sore because of yesterday. Nothing much else going on, however I hope this apology is well recieved.

[[ log 1 ]]
~ Cloudy Conditions All Day~
~ Winds Up to 12 km/h~
I suppose I should explain as to why the Cachalot Cove lighthouse has got a new keeper as of well, today. For starters, dear Mr. Osslik died at sea. Some say it was divine intervention, others say it was to the famed White Whale.
I don't mean no harm when I tell you this dear logbook, but I know it was my man-crazed sister, Elizabetha, who dragged the poor lad down below. Only Neptune knows what she did with him.
The final reasoning is nothing more than me wanting to experience a brand new way of living. I suppose you can say that all the people watching I've done from the comfort of the sea has, oh how do you say it, inspired me to try it out myself.
I don't have much more to say, but I do hope that this logbook is understandable, as I don't know much about how humans write.

to be honest, this task was probably the coldest to do today, simply because the workings seem to freeze fairly often!
Good evening logbook! This time I remembered to write the log! Unfortunately, these still are going to be short, as I was inside all day.
Now I did plan to do atleast 2 tours today, but I guess humans don't seem to have the same amount of nerve as I thought they did. Oh well, more time for me and the sea!
That's all for tonight,

Ofcourse, as soon as I begin to feel better, everything worsens. If one reads yesterdays log, I had begun to feel better, and today, even more so! In rejuvinating fashion, I thought that washing my bedsheets might help remove the aura of the sickness, but as soon as I attempt to cleanse myself in the form of a bath, my monthly shedding begins.
When a real human like me spends time away from the sea long enough, slowly shedding old scales hurts a great amount. Well, I wouldn't call them scales. Real humans don't have scales, and I am a real human, but I suppose it can be considered scales. Whatever the equivalent is, I am now bedridden once again.

A rainy evening to you dear logbook! Today wasn't super busy, so I do apologize for not having much to say, hoever I will say that I had the lovely chance to catch up on some reading from those books that I aquired recently about a month ago. Thankfully I did come prepared, as it had started to rain right as I was leaving the little cafe I was in. I suppose that is everything, so I shall end the log here.
I am feeling a little hungry though...

With the new week starting up tomorrow, I decided to peruse the farmer’s market with Navera, a much paler human who sometimes comes by to the station simply to get away from the much busier Cape Pearl. Now Navera does confused me as to why she wears such extravagant, yet dark clothing, however, we seem to have a mutual understanding of one another, and enjoy the company. The two of us ended up walking around a couple of normal tents, mainly for me to get a look at what to buy for the week, and also a couple of the pop up tents had some clothes for sale. At roughly 1340, we arrived back at the station in what is called a car, a mode of transportation for humans, and used this as a time to make some food. Navera did tell me that she was allergic to garlic, so I sadly had to make the pasta dish without any. Nonetheless, the day was much successful and I had fun.

Dear Neptune am I feeling worse than last night. I barely slept due to the fact that just swallowing anything brought pain upon me. I never been sick while at home and goodness I hate it. So tired and in slight pain as well. As one can assume, all tours are canceled.

Good eve logbook!
Since today is a day of rest, I really didn't have much duties to do. Thankfully, I do have enough food to last me a little bit more, but I hope I'll be able to atleast get some basic essentials soon.
On a more positive note, I was able to enjoy this really cold weather! Turns out, hitting ice hurts humans! No worries, I am alright, besides being a little cold.
Living in such an old station, it hasn't been fully caught up with technologies, however, this does give me the excuse to sit by the fireplace with a nice cup of tea, as well as giving me the chance to sleep under layers and layers of blankets.
Once again, I did stay inside, except for the fact that I did go outside... oh well, I shall leave you here.

Evening logbook. I shall updat eyou on my situation, in terms of being sick.
I am feeling a lot better!
I have been drinking lots of tea these past two days, and as much as I have grown to love it, it got to the point where I could not stand how warm my body got. I told this to Mrs. Osslike and she forbids me from stepping outside! I guess it was for the best, but I still have a small headache from my stuffed nose and a slight cough. I suppose I shall wait that out.

Good eve logbook! Today was a very simple day, with a singular tour. Now I have been catching up on my reading with the nutrition book, and so far, I have learned how to manage what humans call stress, and I am keeping up with the fact that I need to drink a lot more water. A funny thing that happened during said tour, is a guy my age, simply came up to me in the middle of my tour, and just… handed me a tomato. No words exchanged, I simply see him approach the group, he makes his way around our small crowd, pulls out said tomato, and just places it in my hand, like its normal to accept a random, singular tomato. Actually the more I think on it, what if it has a poison placed inside. Oh dear. No no, I am overthinking. Oh but what if…

Good day dear log book! The last time I updated you was officially the November 3rd, however, that doesn't mean that I haven't been keeping up with my duties.
I learned at the start of the December month that there is this gift giving holiday called the Christmas, which is today! Since I do not have humans that live with me, I really just spent my money on buy myself some more clothes, and I found some land gifts to give to my family.
Mrs. Osslik, bless her soul, has moved out of the station since I ended up passing my inspections, but we keep in touch with the mail system and letters. She did stop by and help me with the decorations, but there was only 2 weeks of tours left for the year before we closed up. Thankfully, we did recieve more donations because of such beautiful ideas, and I can consider that was a gift as well!
Tonight is also the first night of the full moon, which means I can see my family on this gift giving holiday. I shall end this update here, and there shall be no more until the station opens up again for the winter time, on the January 8.
