I never liked Johnson but he was the only one, aside from me, who survived the blast caused by the oxygen ignition. As China rolled around again I realized it was Friday and that we were supposed to be installing new panels on the RGA array. That wasn't going to happen. As far as I was concerned it was the last day of my life and I was spending it with a guy who refused to eat with his mouth closed. It's a habit I find annoying on Earth but intolerable in a zero g environment. I'd never been so glad to go without.
