Journal Entry No. 5: Panic Attack

No! NO! It can’t end like this! All of my hard work for nothing? It can’t be.

I’m having a hard time finding a compatible brain. Everything that I’ve found has been either too old, abnormal, or incomplete. I don’t relish the thought of having to return an old friend to the grave. I haven’t given up searching.

I might be able to hack or tweak an existing brain. But, it’s a long shot; the brain is both complex and delicate. One wrong move, and the whole thing could be rendered useless. I guess it’s a good thing that I have steady hands.

Panicked,
Trader Sam

–Update–

Dear journal,

After doing some more digging, I have found other options. They may not be exactly what I am looking for, but they could work . . . for the time being.
