One very sad thing about this trip is that my cat that I grew up with has been ill and sort of went off the deep ed…she spends all her time in the cupboard.

me: I'm sorry, I'm going to be really irritating and check in a ton of UW-Madison as well as UW System books, some of which are reported as lost, and I need receipts for all of them.
librarian: It's only annoying if you don't tell us first.

~*~*~sixth season spoilers~*~*~
i know that the person-who-plays-the-doctor’s personal politics might not exactly have much to do with how i should regard the doctor, but i have to say, i feel like matt smith’s interesting gender identity and willingness to play queer roles and general off-set funniness makes me like him as the doctor more than david tennant’s sort of weird...
