So there was that quote from Doctor Who (‘The Empty Child,’ first season with Nine): “Know how long you can knock around space without having to bump into Earth?” “Five days? Or is it when we’re out of milk? I often think about that when I’m trying to decide if I *really* need to go […]

I think I’ve posted a link to this vid before, but I heard the song ‘Papa Don’t Preach’ on the way to work yesterday and then (of course) had to go find this vid, watch it (at work), and share it with my Doctor Who loving coworker (who also watched it at work). Papa Don’t […]

There was also a picture of a weeping angel around the corner.) 2. biggest lie of the week: tumblr sent me an email with this subject line: […]

My work!neighbor is currently watching (for the first time) Doctor Who — specifically, the second season with the Tenth Doctor. [She has reminded me that you should never watch Doctor Who alone at night.] Yesterday, she said she was up to the two-part season finale. “Does Rose die?” she asked me. And I stood there […]

I’ve had a tumblr account for… a long time. Two years-ish? Because the dashboard is awesome and I can follow things to my fannish heart’s delight. (On an only somewhat related note: today at work the coworker who runs our facebook page was brainstorming ways to get more likes. Trying to be helpful, I said, […]

Latest light count from my drive home tonight: 120 houses with lights up! (AND there were a few that I couldn’t count that I know have had lights on when I’ve gone by later in the evening. Next week I’ll go for a later time, and see if I can edge the count even a […]

Might I just say, “Thanks!” to all the SPN writers who had a part in the finale ep for season 6. I’m not sure which one of them came up with it, but ohai-get-out-of-jail-free card for getting shanked by an angel blade! It reminds me of Doctor Who, where they came up with the ‘it […]
