Okay, so it probably won't be daily, but since I've squeed before about stuff, I thought I should make it official.

• Saw "Star Trek" for a second time Saturday. And bought the novel. It only gets better and Karl only gets more fucking adorable.
• Liza and I got another weekend together, just us. So nice. She's suffered the most during this bout with cancer, her whole life disrupted by me not being able to do what I normally do and my mom being around so much. Very nice just letting her drive and us going out of the house.
• Made pizzas and watched flicks Friday night. "Night at the Museum" and "Transformers" were both great. Why didn't I go to the theater?
• Breakfast with the in-laws this morning. Okay, that's only a semi-happy. But it was a free breakfast of pancakes.
• Finished and posted third McCoy/Kirk story. Even started fourth one.
• Made two new icons today. Semi-happy: Debating paid account for more icons. ( See below cut. )

Okay, I've seen it enough this week in "Star Trek" fiction on LJ that I'm getting annoyed. Yes, there is a ST:TOS canon from years back. It doesn't apply to the new ST world. That's well established in the film.

So stop giving McCoy a damned daughter.

The only things established in the film that Reboot!McCoy shares with TOS!McCoy are attending the University of Mississippi and being married at some point. Reboot!McCoy didn't mention a daughter, so let's not give him one. Another nuisance is his age. If you take that everything prior to the alternate reality ignited in 2255 is canon, then it's established by TOS that McCoy was born in 2227. Use a calculator, folks. That makes McCoy 28 when he meets Kirk.

I know this brings about the question of reconciling TOS canon to Reboot, but I think the film negates pretty much of the TOS canon, except what predates the alternate reality split in 2255.

Again, it's just my opinion. And I felt like a Thursday mini-rant.

Notes: The italicized quote is from Antoine Saint-Exupery. Often misquoted as “A single event can awaken within us a stranger totally unknown to us.”, it was a fic challenge in an LJ Kirk/McCoy community. It sparked my muse into a double drabble. Hey, it’s solo writing, which I do so very seldom.
