nettles, the revenge! plus thoughts on janice rand

Today:

- the toilet started to leak (again) and so we are flushing it with buckets of water (joy).

- I had a driving lesson and got onto the main road and did traffic lights! More traffic lights than I ever did when I was learning up in Scotland because there was only one set!

- I nettled myself on one of those evil little nettles and it still hurts now after eight hours and loads of anti-histamine cream. Bastards.

- I watched an old school episode of Star Trek in which evil!Kirk tries to rape Yeoman Rand. Afterwards she tells good!Kirk that she understood and that she wouldn't have told anyone! What?! Perhaps her beehive hairdo affects her brain. In another Rand related observation, in one episode there's an emergency and Kirk tells her to take the helm and off she goes flying the ship. Now, if she can fly a spaceship, why is she just a yeoman who's sole role seems to be making sure that Kirk eats regularly (and heating hot water with a phaser so she can make coffee for him when the galley has no power)?
