taharielThank you to everyone who commented on my post about work yesterday. I'm feeling better about it today, even if it still sucks ass, but at least I'm more sanguine about it. I can live with that. I'm just going to do the best job I can do, and fuck them if they don't value that. I am going to be all Tom McRae about it. (I love Tom McRae. I wonder if he has new music out yet? *ponders*)

I don't know about you, but "Child On Board" signs always make me think, well, I guess I won't ram into your car, then, I suppose. Do they really make anyone drive any differently? I'm fairly certain that they're mostly a way of indirectly bragging that you have produced offspring. For proof of this, see "Grandchild on board", a clear extension of this phenomenon which has no value but to show off that your offspring have produced offspring, and you are now old.
In the name of funny roadsigns everywhere:
Today's rec not only ignores either of my read pairings in Star Trek fandom (le gasp!) but is also fabulously funny and poignant. I really enjoy fics that explore the dynamic we saw on screen between Kirk and Uhura, not necessarily romantically but the way in which that is a kind of friendship, too - an ongoing joke between two people who pretend to dislike each other. This is a perfect example of the type.
