....Retractions From the Tardis....

SO THIS IS JUST A POST TO SAY....I GOOFED ON MY LAST DOCTOR THEMED POST....I said that Amelia's aunt was her mother. Sorry about that!

I wouldn't mind....but some people get touchy about that.

I mean I'm a NEW Whovian. I've come to this only knowing about the Eleventh Doctor. Not that there is anything wrong with Ten. He's great!! It's just that, well, Eleven is my Doctor.

When I first saw the "New" Daleks....well....I didn't really know they looked different. I mean....I'd never really seen a Dalek. I never cared before!! So, to me, they're actually pretty cool.

I like them, yeah they look like skittles, but who cares? Well. People apparently do. I mean, here's my thing: I'm liking them because they show imagination. They represent change, and that Matt Smith's stint as The Doctor will be different and even more exciting. Besides, I like this episode. I love it when The Doctor goes bonkers with the pipe on the Dalek. It's amazing.

What does CREEP me out, and even more so on this last episode are those damn Cybermen:

Good GOD that's just creepy.

I saw the episode (of DT's reign) where the Cybermen cut up the Torchwood lady. So yeah. I don't like them. LOL

Anywaysers....so....really I was just gonna say sorry, and that I made the changes. And I got caught up talking about Doctor Who again. I like it though. These things seem to come to me when I'm not at my best, and they make it easier for me to deal.

Thanks for reading!! It's really not an official blog post tonight, so no gratuitous Chris Isaak picture. Maybe this:

I feel like I'm cheating on my Chris!! LOL!!! Enjoy, Whovians!!!

....Hello Sweetie....

I KNOW I SAID MY NEXT POST WOULD BE DOCTOR-LESS....but the last two episodes were awesome, and I cheated and watched the season finale. Why, you may ask, did I do this? Well, dude, if you had seen the end of "The Pandorica Opens" you would have been just like I was. I stood up, screamed "DAAHHHH!!!" and demanded that I see the next part. My Sisser, who usually talks me out of watching the next episode online, agreed that we should be able to see the next part.

I was feeling stuck when "The Pandorica Opens" ended with Amy in Rory's arms, after Rory had been dead and forgotten, and the Doctor inside of the Pandorica screaming "LISTEN TO ME!!!" Not to mention that Rory, (who is plastic, apparently) has involuntarily shot Amy in the stomach with a gun that came out of his hand.

WHAT!!?!?!!? I was having none of this crap.

(Rory's crazy gun hand thing)

Like I told you before, I knew he'd get out, how? I wasn't sure. What did we learn from "The Pandorica Opens"? Well, that that crack had been eating at Amy's life. I mean I guess I could have gotten that from the second half (sorry LOL) but when the Doctor looked at Amy and asked her "Doesn't it bother you that your life doesn't make sense?" I was like, well that crack done ate her Mama!

STILL! I had to know!!

So, we popped the popcorn, got our stuff together, and here's where Doctor Song would say "Spoilers!!!"

So seriously, if you haven't seen "The Big Bang" turn back now.

This episode was freaking amazing. AMAZING!! We see little Amelia again, and this time when he prays for someone to come and help her, no one shows up. She's just as cute as ever and is painting stars in the sky....which wouldn't be unusual, but because River Song exploded the Tardis, there are no stars, no other planets, just the earth alone in the vaccuum of space, heated by the explosion from our favourite blue box.

But I'm getting ahead....

Amelia is in bed as her Aunt Sharon is showing her kiddie shrink out the door, (remember, she bit them all LOL) she is eavesdropping when someone slips a note into her mail slot. What is it? It's a museum foldout!!

Amelia opens it to see a circle and an arrow pointing to that damned Pandorica!!

Not to mention the note on the back that says "Come along, Pond". (That cuted me OUT!!)

So, little Amelia decides to go to the museum, b-lines it for the Pandorica section, and notices a sticky note on the Pandorica that reads "Stick around Pond". So she runs away from her (bitchy) Aunt and hides until the museum closes.

Of course, this is the part where I was getting all nutso and saying "THE DOCTOR!! LET HIM OUT!!!" because I've developed a crush on Matt Smith (or the Doctor I'm not sure) and I wanted to get him out because no doubt it had been a long time!!

Of course Little Amelia watches in amazement as the Pandorica (how many times did I type this?) OPENS to reveal....AMY POND?!???!

How did Amy get in there? I'm not telling. You need to see it from then on. Just know that Fezes are not cool, and that The Doctor is the goddamn man!

Oh, yeah and "The Lodger" was cute and creepy as hell (boffo footballing scenes, he just showed off a lot LOL), and this was the best part of the whole thing:

Naked Doctor. Yum!!

So that's pretty much it!! I'm still gonna have Doctor Who Margarita Saturday, coz I NEED to see the season finale again!! It was soooooo good!! AMY AND RORY'S WEDDING!! AHHHH!!! LOVE!!

AND NOW THE GRATUITOUS CHRIS ISAAK PICTURE!!

AND BABY, "AMERICAN IDOL"!??!?!?! PLEASE DON'T!!!

Haz a good night, PIPPLEZ!!!

....STILL More Doctor Who!!!....

SPOILERS SUCK!!! THEY DO, THEY REALLY DO!!! It seems in this day and age if you don't want to know anything about your favourite show, you shouldn't go online. Especially with my Doctor.

Just watching an interview with Matt Smith, I got spoiled!! From an episode that's after an episode I haven't seen!!! The Fourth of July weekend has put a damper on me seeing "The Lodger". I guess I'll just do a Doctor Who Margarita Marathon!! Drunk Doctor oggling....always fun.

This last eppie that I saw was called "Vincent and the Doctor". It was pretty good, but mostly sad. I mean I realize that Vincent Van Gogh (pronounced Van GOFF, apparently) had issues. Most of us artists do. It was just sad to watch the guy weep because he knew that Amy and The Doctor would be leaving soon.

I enjoyed the thought of Amy staying and marrying him, if just for the fact that she might have actually been happy. I mean with Rory dying in such A HORRIBLE way, and then having her history erased by time energy, that's tough. Still Karen Gillan always redeems Amy. I enjoy Amy (having studied up on Rose and Martha), she has no interest in being in love with The Doctor, and only really jumped him out of sheer relief. I can't blame her, I would have done the same.

I guess I should put a little note about "The Hungry Earth/Cold Blood" two parter. Finding out BBC America basically chops up the eppies into 60 minutes, it's really no wonder these two episodes made little sense. Still, they were pretty good. I didn't like Ambrose, and really the Doctor did let her off too light, she did kill someone, even if that someone was a Homoreptilia.

It also kind of irritated me that she expected the Doctor to be watching her kid. Dude, YOU watch your damn kid!!! LOL

For some reason I liked The Doctor saying "Does anyone have any celery? Maybe a tomato?" It was cute. I'm a sucker for cute.

As for "The Lodger", I saw a one minute clip and am really excited to see how it turns out!! I mean, half naked Doctor!!! Come on!!!

Another thing that got spoiled for me was learning exactly what "The Pandorica" is. After hearing it's a prison for all eternity, and that the Doctor has been trapped inside it, I know he's going to get out just from what River Song said in "Flesh and Stone", as I got even more annoyed by her, (LOL) "You'll see me again when the Pandorica opens...." to which the Doctor says, "I look forward to it." Then River smiles, "I remember it well." So YEAH he's getting out, not to mention he's, you know, THE DOCTOR!!!

So far I've enjoyed all the episodes, and I know this is only Matt Smith's first season as the Doctor, but it's pretty good, which means that the second will be even better!!

I have been completed as a Fangirl. LOL

Welp, I think that's pretty much all I have to say for tonight. I promise my next post will be Doctor-less. LOL

and now....THE GRATUITOUS CHRIS ISAAK PICTURE!!!

GOLLY he's so hot. LOL

It's a concert shot....'cause I got my ticket!!! I'm a V.I.P!!! WhOOO I get my picture!!

HAZ A GOOD NIGHT PIPPLEZ!!!!

....IT'S TOO DARN HOT, MORE Doctor Who, and Sherman Alexie....

OH MY GOD IN HEAVEN IT IS INCREDIBLY HOT IN OUR HOUSE!!!!! It's insane. We're waiting for an estimate for an air conditioner, meanwhile, we bought two evaporative coolers. Point is, Ladies and Jellyspoons, we're gonna have to visit our mommies for a bit this weekend. I figure our house is turning into some sort of sweat lodge, and I for one ain't having any visions, other than a vision of a new air conditioner.

Other than that I finally got to see "Amy's Choice". The Doctor Who eppie that's new in America, old news in the UK, which is irritating me because I can't even go onto DeviantArt without seeing some sort of spoiler. Of course I think that's what I get for drawing this and joining a "Doctor Who Art" group:

It's called "I Love Eleven". Check out my DeviantArt Page for more of my crap!!!

Anyways it was a pretty good episode, and if you didn't see it don't read this. I guess I liked the idea that Amy wasn't fully admitting to herself that she's not ready to settle down. She was pretty cute pregnant, and Rory was adorable trying to be a good husband. Other than that, a lot of my Whosian pals sort of hyped it up so much that when I actually saw it, I had been waiting for the whole "Amy and the Poncho Boys" joke. But it was the best line ever....

"If we're gonna die, let's die looking like a Peruvian flute band!"

Oh yes, homemade ponchos and cute Time Lords make for a GREAT "Doctor Who Margarita Saturday"!!!

Which brings me, SORT OF to my next topic. I love my Doctor and I tend to get a bit carried away!

I have been reading Sherman Alexie's books for some years now.

Out of all his books, (and I've read nearly all of them) my favourite remains the first I ever read, "Reservation Blues". I picked this book up by chance in our local library and read it all the way through in a couple of days. If you haven't read it, it's so amazing. It's why I love his character Thomas Builds-The-Fire. It's about three Spokane Indian guys, Thomas, Victor, and Junior, who end up possessing the possessed guitar of an old blues man, and start a band called "Coyote Springs" with it. It's amazingly good.

The last two of his books that I read were "Flight", and "The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian". "Flight" was an amazing story about a troubled teen who gets to see life through the eyes of several different people, before he commits a bank robbery. I read it in one night.

"Part-Time Indian" was really good and SOOO funny. It's about a boy named Junior (notice a pattern, I'm sure it's not the same Junior) who wants to go to the white school off of his reservation to play basketball and get a better education. Of course he gets a lot of flack from his very angry best friend Rowdy, but he seems to over come it in the end.

One thing about Sherman's books that you have to understand before you read them: He's a very proud Spokane Indian who loves basketball, and Hank Williams. These books feed me in ways other books haven't been able to in a long time. I always wait for the new books. Have been for a long time.

My sis ordered me this one today! I was veryyyyyy happy!! I can't wait to open it. I love new book smell, especially if it's one of his books. I need to get all of his poetry books.

So I guess that's it for tonight!! It's nearly 1 am and I need to get to bed for work in the morning.

OH yeah....I'm gonna loose my job. Meh. I'll be okay.

AND NOW THE GRATUITOUS CHRIS ISAAK PICTURE!!

Ahhhh yes, a picture of my LOVE in SWEEEEDEEENN!! AHHH, or was this Finland? I don't remember. NO WAIT! It was Helsinki, Finland.

I LOVE YOU SWEETIE!!

HAZ A GOOD NIGHT PIPPLEZ!!!

....Doctor Who and My Whole New Level of Nerd....

SO, LAST NIGHT, ON DOCTOR WHO "MARGARITA SATURDAY" I bought myself a sonic screwdriver. Not just ANY sonic screwdriver, but the 11th Doctor's sonic screwdriver. Now, this came as a surprise to me. YES!! Ladies and Gents, I did surprise myself as I ordered a replica of the tool the Doctor uses for everything (except a screwdriver). I have even decided my halloween costume this year, and yes, you guessed it, I will be The Doctor.

Now reading that whole thing back to myself, I have realized, even if my sister says it isn't true, that I have crawled onto a whole new platform, a new level of nerd that I didn't know existed. I will tell you that it's NICE to have a new obsession! It's nice to be in love with something fresh and new.

Don't get me wrong, I'm still that rockabilly gypsy you all know and love, but I do wonder how much more there is to me. Clearly, science fiction fangirl never crossed my mind.

Of course, I am strictly an Eleven kind of girl.

Matt Smith is one hot timelord. I absolutely love him as the doctor, love him in his little bow tie and suspenders, love his little quips and jumbles. I love to watch him be the Doctor. Beyond that, my love for him seems to stay aboard the Tardis.

And my Amy Pond love is huge! I usually don't like cute girls on TV because they fake their way through it all. They just don't TRY because they are so cute. Well, Karen Gillan is cute, yes, but she makes Amy Pond funny and smart, wonderful and quirky. I dig that. I dig that she's doing her job as an actress: making me believe she's a wide eyed Doctor's companion.

Now, so far I've only seen up to Episode 6, "The Vampires of Venice". Everyone else who actually has the BBC (you're probably not watching Ramsey's Fucking Kitchen Nightmares 99 percent of the goddamn time) is already two episodes ahead of me, and BBC America isn't showing the next episode until June 5th.

That's not that far away, right? I'll be fine.

I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS NEXT!! BUT NOBODY TELL ME!!! I actually REALLY wanna know if Rory, (Amy's fiance) is actually gonna stick around for as long as I think he might, because he might not grow on me. OH well, at least I will have Matt to stare at.

Anyways, back to my Level of Nerd.

Tonight my Nikki-Sisser bought me a Doctor Who eleventh doctor action figure. Complete with the screwdriver, and the body, of the tenth Doctor. I let out this weird Pod People scream when I saw it, too. Above that was Tardis Talking Bank. HOLY CHRIST!! Somewhere to keep my Chris Isaak ticket money!! LOVE!!

I left with the doll. I'm a sucker for a picture of Matt.

She assured me this was nothing like the Level of Nerd I had reached when I watched seaQuest. Of course, I was watching seaQuest for essentially the same reason I'm watching Doctor Who. A cute, skinny, light eyed white boy. For sure, they are my downfall.

I loved Jonathan for his big blue eyes, I love Chris for his big blue eyes and guitar playing and voice and ass and....*cough* sorry. I love Matt for his cuteness and whiteness, I guess. Of course I just learned he plays guitar. So, there's that.

Okay, well I'm getting sleepy. It's time for the.....

GRATUITOUS CHRIS ISAAK PICTURE!!

OH THANK YOU JESUS!!! HALLELUJAH!!

HAZ A GOOD NIGHT PIPPLEZ!!
