181 - Describe your perfect day.

I suppose that saying we've made it to Earth and everything is perfect would be too perfect. Besides, I still think we'll make it there somehow, even though most of the time I say otherwise. And, I guess saying that my parents are alive and well would be asking for too much, since they don't exist. Whether they were my parents or Boomer's parents, it doesn't matter. They're no one's parents; they're simply a piece of programming that was placed into every version of "Eight" to complete the "Sharon" persona.

So, if I cut out the perfect future and I cut out the perfect past, then what am I left with? Just now. My perfect day onboard the Battleship Galactica as a mother, wife, and part of the Colonial Fleet.

I'd start off with Hera allowing me to sleep in somehow, just to sneak in a few more minutes of sleep with Helo, who miraculously has the same CAP rotation as me for the day and doesn't have to worry about Dogsville at all. We'd take our time getting up, then dress and play with Hera for a bit before taking her to the daycare center.

( Little moments here and there )

Not much in terms of perfection, since I'm sticking with my "perfect present" instead of the past or future. I guess the only other thing I'd really hope for would be that people like Cally just leave me alone. I don't mind being a Cylon except I really do sometimes, but it's just the idea of fellow crewmembers making me feel less than myself that bothers me. So, I guess, in my perfect day? I'd get to be treated like a human.

That's not too much to ask for, is it?
