Sorry I'm off traveling through space and time

So it is truly official, I am 100% addicted to Doctor Who. If I'm not at work I am watching episodes. I've had to start restricting my viewing because otherwise I would probably give up sleep. Sometimes while at work I find myself thinking "Gee, I really wish I was home watching Doctor Who right now" ... this week work really sucked so that might have been equal parts obsession and just plain old wishing I could escape in my very own TARDIS. 

Last weekend, at this time, I was at the end of Season 2 and I was crying my eyes out. Right now I'm at Episode 3 of Season 4. If I start reading fan fiction I know I'm in need of intervention therapy .... OK, OK if I read ANYMORE fan fiction I will need intervention therapy. I dabbled in some Tenth Doctor and Rose stories to get through the feelings of sorrow last Sunday.

I stand by my love of Christopher Eccleston's 9th Doctor, but bloody hell people were right about David Tennant truly becoming the Doctor. He is fan@#%@tastic!!!!!!!

A question for Prince Charming...

I'm a cynical and practical romantic, and I'm about to over analyze a fairy tale.

This past week I have been turning Walt Disney's Cinderella on to fall asleep to, and it seems that my pre REM subconscious has a questions for Prince Charming. The prince claims he will only marry the girl he danced with, but why doesn't he himself go out and look for her? If he is so in love shouldn't he feel driven to search her out?

Sure some blame could fall on Major Domo's shoulders. He's the one that found the glass slipper that belongs to the girl that the prince danced with, but it seems he never told the prince about it. Instead he goes to the king, who sends Major Domo out to find any old girl whose foot will fit in the glass slipper. The King is so desperate for grandkids he's willing to manipulate his son's words in order to get him hitched. But seriously, the Prince isn't blind ... he would be able to recognize the girl he danced with! He should have eliminated the middle man and gone out and searched himself!

Whoever thought this was a good idea ...

Transitioning kids in the middle of the school year?

Yeah, not such a great idea.

Hopefully I will feel more human this weekend.
