Ha.

I saw this picture and all I can think is...


*singsong* Somebody's in trouble...


I think this is them filming the Season Two finale. I am so excited for that, you don't even know.

So. Excited.

Discombobulated.

Life is full of confusion for... uhm.... people like me.

For instance, LA is not, in fact, in Florida, as I found out sometime last year. Good times there. Ah, how the children laughed with me in celebration of my discovery.

Another common misconception is that "making up" is what you do when you fight with a friend (it was a pretend fight, granted). However, when you use this phrase, your friend may, in fact, whack you and say that's gross. Because, apparently, "making up" is what couples do. Another revelation!

Also, it is not a good idea to tell people outside of your close circle of friends that you named the pole you eat next to (Jaques) or the filing cabinet in your Sunday School room (George). They will then proceed to flatter you by imitation, skipping gleefully around the nearest pole and proclaiming their love for it. Such lovely days.

Today, I learned something new. DIY is not meant to be said "dee." It actually stands for something. Is that not completely insane? In any case, it apparently means "do it yourself." Why they do not just say that, I will never know.

And I learned that discombobulated is actually a real word. I thought Bolt made it up! But no, it means confused. Which is me.

On a completely unrelated note (maybe one day we'll have a related one), January is altogether too long away.

What happens in January, you ask?

Well, there's the customary New Years' drinking party, if you're into that sort of thing and have high alcohol tolerance. Or perhaps the wonderfully irritating slush that accumulates on the side of the road. Or even the joy of scraping off your car windows each and every glorious morning.

While all of these are simply delightful, that's not what I'm excited for.

January is when White Collar comes back.

White Collar is amazing.

That is all.

Magic.

Does it exist?

Probably not.

Can we pretend?

Yup!

However, magic is not what we speak of today. We speak of science.

This science is likely not entirely realistic, but it is very cool anyway.

I am referring to a certain television series revolving around a magi- no, no a scientific guy known as "the Doctor."



He's pretty amazing! He travels around through time and space in his TARDIS.



...it's a lot bigger on the inside. Fun fact about the Doctor, he can regenerate into new forms if he dies. His two most recent forms were played by Christopher Eccleston and David Tennant.



That's Christopher Eccleston. He was really great as the Doctor, I thought, and I was super sad when he died. I do, however, also like David Tennant as the Doctor.



It's still the same guy, with the same memories, but a different appearance and slightly different personalities. This Doctor seems to be really sweet. I like him, too.

One thing they both have in common is their companion, Rose Tyler (played by Billie Piper).



I wasn't immediately sure if I liked her or not, but now I really do. She's cute.

So, this series is all in all pretty cool. It's very inventive and a little out there, but certainly never boring. I'm liking it.

On an entirely unrelated subject, I have discovered that if you add eggs into a brownie batch at the very end, it does not completely ruin it! This is a good thing, as chocolate is an important part of the world.

Very important. Chocolate is extremely wonderful.

Magical, really.
