Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most. ~ Mark Twain

A little bit about me:

I absolutely love anything involving the arts! Acting, music, creative writing, singing, drawing, etc...

WARNING: OVERACTIVE IMAGINATION AT WORK! It most likely comes from the movies I see, the books I read, and the stories I write. (It's probably also the cause of my slight insanity... *smiles innocently*)

I really appreciate feedback, so comments, constructive criticism, and compliments would be nice!

Yes, I am a Christian. If you have a problem with it, you have no obligation to stay on this page.

Female, blonde (don't judge), blue eyes, vertically challenged (not a Hobbit... I don't think...)

Jack: Doctor. The Doctor: Captain. Jack: Good to see you. The Doctor: And you. Same as ever. Although... have you had work done? Jack: You can talk.

10th Doctor: Need this? (offering Sonic Screwdriver) 5th Doctor: Nah I'm fine. 10th Doctor: Oh no of course, you mostly went hands free didn't you? Like hey I'm the Doctor I can save the universe using a kettle and some string and look at me I'm wearing a vegetable!

Fred: As our listeners will know, unless they've taken refuge at the bottom of a garden pond or somewhere similar, You-Know-Who's strategy of remaining in the shadows is creating a nice little climate of panic. Mind you, if all the alleged sightings of him are genuine, we must have a good nineteen You-Know-Whos running around the place. [...] So, people, let's try to calm down a bit. Things are bad enough without inventing stuff as well. For instance, this new idea that You-Know-Who can kill with a single glance from his eyes. That's a basilisk, listeners. One simple test: Check whether the thing that's glaring at you has got legs. If it has, it's safe to look into its eyes, although if it really is You-Know-Who, that's still likely to be tha last thing that you ever do.

Rose: If you're an alien, why do you sound like you're from the North? The Doctor: Lots of planets have a North.

The Doctor: Fantastic!

The Doctor: Nice to meet you, Rose! (Holds up bomb, shakes it while grinning.) Run for your life!

Rose: Who are you? The Doctor: [turns around] Do you know like we were sayin'? About the Earth revolving? [walks towards Rose] It's like when you're a kid. The first time they tell you that the world's turning and you just can't quite believe it 'cause everything looks like it's standin' still. [looks at Rose] I can feel it. [takes Rose's hand] The turn of the Earth. The ground beneath our feet is spinnin' at 1,000 miles an hour and the entire planet is hurtling around the sun at 67,000 miles an hour, and I can feel it. We're fallin' through space, you and me, clinging to the skin of this tiny little world, and if we let go... [lets go of Rose's hand] That's who I am.

The Doctor: [opening Rose's phone] Tell you what. With a bit of jiggery pokery— Rose: Is that a technical term, "jiggery pokery"? The Doctor: Yeah, I got a first in jiggery pokery, what about you? Rose: [playing along] Nah, I failed hullabaloo.

The Doctor: I saw the Fall of Troy! World War Five! I was pushing boxes at the Boston Tea Party! Now I'm gonna die in a dungeon... [disgustedly] in Cardiff!

The Doctor: I think you'll find the Prime Minister is an alien in disguise, and— [Glances at military police leader.] That’s never gonna work, is it? [The policeman shakes his head.] Policeman: Nope. The Doctor: Fair eCould younough. [runs]

General Asquith (Slitheen): Under the jurisdiction of the Emergency Protocols, I authorize you to execute this man! The Doctor: Ah, well, now, you see, uh, the thing is, if I was you, if I was gonna, uh, execute someone by backing them against the wall, between you and me, a little word of advice: [there is a ping and the lift door slides open behind the Doctor] don't stand him against the lift! [steps backwards and the lift door closes]

The Doctor: (As he digs through a bin of alien stuff) Broken. Broken. Hair dryer... [Pulls big gun out of bin.] Oh, yes! Lock and load!

The Doctor: The thing is, Adam, time travel is like visiting Paris. You can't just read the guidebook, you've got to throw yourself in! Eat the food, use the wrong verbs, get charged double and end up kissing complete strangers! Or is that just me?

The Doctor: (to Rose as a baby) Now, Rose - you're not going to bring around the end of the world, are you? (no reply) Are you?

Jack: Could you switch off your cell phone? No, seriously, it interferes with my instruments. Rose: You know, no one ever believes that.

The Doctor: It's my nose; it has special powers. Nancy: Yeah? That why it's so...? The Doctor: What? Nancy: Nothing. The Doctor: What? Nancy: Nothing. Do your ears have special powers too?

The Doctor: (He, Jack, and Rose are cornered by the gas-mask zombies) Go to your room! Go to your room! I mean it. I'm very, very angry with you. I'm very, very cross! GO! TO! YOUR! ROOM! [The children lurch away and obey him.] I'm really glad that worked. Those would have been terrible last words.

The Doctor: Sonic Blaster. 54th century. Weapons factory at Villengard? Jack: You've been to the factories? The Doctor: Once. Jack: Well they're gone now. Destroyed. Main reactor went critical. Vaporized the lot. The Doctor: Like I said: once. There's a banana grove there now. I like bananas. Bananas are good.

Jack: It's the special features, they really drain the battery. Rose: The battery? So lame! Jack: I was going to send for another one but somebody has got to blow up the factory! Rose: Oh, I know. First day I met him, he blew my job up. That's practically how he communicates.

The Doctor: Can you sense it? Captain Jack: Sense what? The Doctor: Coming out of the walls. Can you feel it? Funny little human brains, how do you get around in those things? Rose: When he's stressed he likes to insult species. The Doctor: Rose, I'm thinking. Rose: Cuts himself shaving, does half an hour on life forms he's cleverer than.

Captain Jack: Who has a sonic screwdriver? The Doctor: I do! Captain Jack: Who looks at a screwdriver and thinks, "Ooh, this could be a little more sonic."? The Doctor: What, you've never been bored? Never had a long night? Never had a lot of cabinets to put up?

The Doctor: Go now! Don't drop the banana! Jack: Why not? The Doctor: It's a good source of potassium!

Rose: Look at you, beaming away like you're Father Christmas. The Doctor: Who says I'm not? Red bicycle when you were twelve. Rose: What?

Jack: Okay computer, how long can we keep the bomb in stasis? Computer: Stasis decaying at 90% cycle. Detonation in three minutes. Jack: Can we jettison it? Computer: Any attempt to jettison the device will precipitate detonation. 100% probability. Jack: We could stick it in an escape pod. Computer: There is no escape pod on board. Jack: Okay, see the flaw in that. I'll get in the escape pod. Computer: There is no escape pod on board. Jack: Did you check everywhere? Computer: Affirmative. Jack: Under the sink! Computer: Affirmative. Jack: Okay, out of 100, exactly how dead am I? Computer: Termination of Captain Jack Harkness in under two minutes. 100% probability. Jack: Lovely. Thanks. Good to know the numbers. Computer: You're welcome.

Mickey: So what are you doing in Cardiff and who the heck is Jumpin' Jack Flash? I mean I don't mind you hanging out with big ears up there— The Doctor: Oy! Mickey: Look in the mirror. But this guy, I don't know. He's kinda— Jack: Handsome? Mickey: More like cheesy. Jack: Early 21st century slang. Is cheesy good or bad? Mickey: It's bad. Jack: But bad means good, isn't that right? The Doctor: Are you saying I'm not handsome?

Mickey: That old lady's staring. Jack: Probably wondering what four people could do inside a small wooden box. Mickey: What are you captain of? The inuendo squad?

Mickey: Have you tried that new pizza place on Midnight Road? Jackie: What's it sellin'? Mickey: Pizza.

Rose: I want her to say "We are not amused." I bet you five quid I can make her say it. The Doctor: Well if I gambled on that it'd be an abuse of my privilege as a traveler in time. Rose: Ten quid? The Doctor: Done.

Mickey: So what's the deal with the tin dog? Sarah Jane: The Doctor likes travelling with an entourage. Sometimes they're humans, sometimes they're aliens. And sometimes they're tin dogs. What about you? Where do you fit in the picture? Mickey: Me? I'm their man in Havana. I'm the technical support. I'm— pause Oh my god. I'm the tin dog.

Mr. Finch: (about K-9) Forget the shooty dog thing.

Mr. Finch: (to K-9) You... bad dog. K-9: Affirmative.

The Doctor: Correctamundo! A word I have never used before and hopefully never will again.

Mickey: What's a horse doing on a spaceship? The Doctor: What's pre-revolutionary France doing on a spaceship? Get a little perspective!

Rose: Oh, look at what the cat dragged in. The Oncoming Storm. The Doctor: Mm. You sound just like your mother. Rose: What have you been doing? Where have you been? The Doctor: Well... among other things I think I just invented the banana daiquiri a couple of centuries early. Do you know they'd never even seen a banana before. Always take a banana to a party, Rose. Bananas are good.

The Doctor: Oh ho ho... brilliant! It's you! You're my favorite, you are. You are the best. You know why? 'Cause you're so thick! You're Mr. Thick Thick Thickety Thickface from Thicktown. Thickania! ... And so's your dad.

The Doctor: Here, boy! Eat the food! C'mon, look at the lovely food! Isn't' that nice? Isn't it? Yes it is! [To Elton] Get out of here, quickly! [To the monster] Have some, boy! Wouldn't you like a porky-choppy then? [To Elton] I said run! [Rose throws a bucket of liquid on the monster] The Doctor: Wrong one! You made it worse! Rose: You said blue! The Doctor: I said "not blue"!

Martha: You step on a butterfly, you change the history of the human race. The Doctor: Then don't step on any butterflies. What do you have against butterflies?

Shakespeare: And you Doctor. I might learn more about this constant performance of yours. The Doctor: All the world's a stage. Shakespeare: Hm. I might use that.

The Doctor: People assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect. But actually from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint it's more like a big ball of wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey... stuff.

The Doctor: Listen, gotta dash. Things. Happening. Well, four things. Well, four things and a lizard.

Martha: It's a bit odd though. Not very one hundred trillion. That coat's more like World War II. The Doctor: I think he came with us. Martha: How d'you mean? He's from Earth? The Doctor: Must have been clinging to the outside of the TARDIS. All the way through the vortex. Wow, that's very him. Martha: What, do you know him? The Doctor: A friend of mine. Used to travel with me.

Jack: So what about those things outside? The Beastie Boys. What are they? The Professor: We call them the Future Kind. Which is a myth in itself. But it's feared they're what we will become. Unless we reach Utopia. The Doctor: And Utopia is...? The Professor: Oh, every human knows Utopia. Where've you been? The Doctor: Bit of a hermit. The Professor: A hermit? With friends? The Doctor: Hermits United. We meet up every ten years. Swap stories about caves. It's good fun. For a hermit.

The Doctor: It strikes me, Professor, you've got a room which no man can enter without dying. Is that correct? The Professor: Yes. The Doctor: Well. (Jack is revived) I think I've got just the man. Jack: Was someone kissing me?

The Doctor: What are you taking your clothes off for? Jack: I'm going in. The Doctor: From the looks of it, I'd say the stet radiation doesn't affect clothing, only flesh. Jack: Well. I look good though.

The Master: Funny is like this. (Smiles exaggeratedly) Not funny is like this. (Frowns exaggeratedly)

Alfred Dumfries: Very funny, sir. What is that? The Master: (Sounds muffled behind the gas mask) It's a gas mask. Alfred: What? The Master: (Takes off the mask) It's a gas mask. (Puts the mask back on) Alfred: (Laughs nervously) Very funny, sir, but why are you wearing a gas mask? The Master: (Behind the mask) Because of the gas. Alfred: (Still laughing nervously) What was that? The Master: (Exasperatedly takes off the mask) Because of the gas. (Puts on mask) Alfred: (Alarmed) What gas? The Master: (Behind the mask as the gas fills the room) This gas.

Guard: We can't get in, we'll get slaughtered! Jack: Yeah. Happens to me a lot.

Penny: Is anyone going to tell me what's going on? The Doctor: What are you, a journalist? Penny: Yes. The Doctor: Then make it up.

The Doctor: The last time, with Martha—like I said, it got complicated. And that was all my fault. I just want a mate. Donna: You just want to mate?! The Doctor: I just want a mate. Donna: Well you're not mating with me, sunshine! The Doctor: A mate! I just want a mate. Donna: Well it's just as well, because I'm not having any of that nonense. I mean you're just a long streak of... nothing! Alien nothing. The Doctor: There we are then.

Donna: I'm not coming with you. I've been thinking. I'm sorry. I'm going home. The Doctor: Really? Donna: I've got to. The Doctor: Well. If that's what you want. Only it's a bit soon. I had so many places I wanted to take you. The fifteenth broken moon of the Medusa Cascade. The lightning skies of Cotter Palluni's World. Diamond coral reefs of Kataa Flo Ko. Thank you. Thank you, Donna Noble. It's been brilliant. You've... you've saved my life in so many ways. You're... you're just popping home for a visit, that's what you mean. Donna: You dumbo. The Doctor: And then you're coming back. Donna: Know what you are? A great big, outer space dunce.

The Doctor: With equipment like this you could—oh, I don't know—move to another planet or something. Luke: If only that was possible. The Doctor: "If only that 'were' possible." Conditional clause.

The Doctor: I was just thinking. What a responsible 18-year-old. Inventing zero carbon cars. Savin' the world... Luke: It takes a man with vision. The Doctor: Mm. Blinkered vision. 'Cause Atmos means more people driving. More cars, more petrol. End result the oil's gonna run out faster than ever. The Atmos system could make things worse. Luke: Yeah, well see. That's a tautology. You can't say Atmos system. 'Cause it stands for Atmospheric Emission System. So you can't say "Atmospheric Emission System System." Do you see, Mr. Conditional Clause? The Doctor: It's been a long time since anyone's said "no" to you, isn't it?

Donna: Typical. All the decent men are on the other bus. The Doctor: Or Time Lord.

(The Doctor uses charades to show the food he needs) Donna: Cocktail shaker! You want a Harvey Wallbanger? The Doctor: Harvey Wallbanger? Donna: Well, I don't know! The Doctor: How is "Harvey Wallbanger" one word? Agatha Christie: What do you need, Doctor? The Doctor: Salt! I was miming salt, I need salt, I need something salty! Donna: (Grabbing a brown bag) What about this? The Doctor: What is it?! Donna: Salt! The Doctor: That's too salty! Donna: sarcastically Oh, that's too salty! Agatha Christie: What about this? The Doctor: Mmm (eats it) Donna: What's that? Agatha Christie: Anchovies Donna: What is it? What else? (the Doctor mimes open palms, with arms outstretched) Donna: It's a song- Mammy! I don't know, Camptown Races? The Doctor: Camptown Races !? Donna: All right, Towering Inferno!? The Doctor: It's a shock, a shock, I need a shock! Donna: All right then, big shock... (kisses him on the lips The Doctor: (Exhaling toxins) Ahh, detox. Oh, I must do that more often (beat) I mean, the detox...

River Song: Hello Sweetie.

The Doctor: Oh, you're not, are you? Tell me you're not archaeologists. River Song: Got a problem with archeologists? The Doctor: I'm a time traveller. I point and laugh at archeologists. River Song: Ah. Professor River Song, archaeologist.

Sylvia: Dad, please! Come home! They're leaving our street alone. Wilfred: I've got a weapon. Sylvia: It's a paint gun. Wilfred: Exactly! Them Dalek things, they've only got one eye. A good sploge of paint, they'd be blinded.

Dalek: My vision is not impaired! Sylvia: I warned you Dad. Dalek: Hostility will not be tolerated! Exterminate! Exterminate! Exter— {Rose takes off its head with a humongous gun} Wilfred: Do you wanna swap?

Jack: busting in through the air shaft: Just my luck. I climb through two miles of ventilation shafts chasing life signs on this thing and who do I find? Mickey Mouse! Mickey: You can talk, Captain Cheesecake. {they hug.} Jack: Good to see you! And that's Beefcake. Mickey: And that's enough hugging.

Jackie: I'm gonna get killed by a Christmas tree!

Daniel Llewellynn: You seem to be talking about aliens as a matter of fact. Harriet Jones: There's an act of Parliament banning my autobiography.

The Doctor: Not bad for a man in his jim jams. Very Arthur Dent. Now, there was a nice man. Although what have I got in here? A satsuma. Ah, that friend of your mother's. He does like his snacks, doesn't he? But doesn't that just sum up Christmas. You go through all those presents and right at the end tucked away in the bottom there's always one stupid old satsuma. (The Sycorax gets up to attack the Doctor who launches the satsuma at a release mechanism.) No second chances. I'm that sort of a man.

The Doctor: I can bring down your government with a single word. Harriet: You're the most remarkable man I've ever met. But I don't think you're quite capable of that. The Doctor: No, you're right. Not a single word. Just six. Harriet: I don't think so. The Doctor: Six words. Harriet: Stop it. The Doctor: Six. (to Alex): Don't you think she looks tired?

Christina: You're called the Doctor? The Doctor: Yes I am. Christina: That's not a name, that's a psychological condition.

DI McMillan: I'm charging you too. Aiding and abetting. The Doctor: Yes. I'll just step inside this police box and arrest myself.

Adelaide: State your name, rank, and intention. The Doctor: The Doctor. Doctor. Fun.

OBITUARY FOR THE LATE MR. COMMON SENSE

Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, Common Sense, who has been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was, since his birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape.

He will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as: Knowing when to come in out of the rain; why the early bird gets the worm; Life isn't always fair; and Maybe it was my fault.

Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies (don't spend more than you can earn) and reliable strategies (adults, not children, are in charge). His health began to deteriorate rapidly when well-intentioned but overbearing regulations were set in place. Reports of a 6 year-old boy charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate; teens suspended from school for using mouthwash after lunch; and a teacher fired for reprimanding an unruly student, only worsened his condition.

Common Sense lost ground when parents attacked teachers for doing the job that they themselves had failed to do in disciplining their unruly children. It declined even further when schools were required to get Parental consent to administer Calpol, sun lotion or a band-aid to a student; but could not inform parents when a student became pregnant and wanted to have an abortion.

Common Sense lost the will to live as the Ten Commandments became contraband; churches became businesses; and criminals received better treatment than their victims.

Common Sense took a beating when you couldn't defend yourself from a burglar in your own home and the burglar could sue you for assault.

Common Sense finally gave up the will to live, after a woman failed to realize that a steaming cup of coffee was hot. She spilled a little in her lap, and was promptly awarded a huge settlement.

Common Sense was preceded in death by his parents, Truth and Trust; his wife, Discretion; his daughter, Responsibility; and his son, Reason.

He is survived by his 3 stepbrothers; I Know My Rights, Someone Else Is To Blame, and I'm A Victim. Not many attended his funeral because so few realized he was gone. If you still remember him, pass this on. If not, join the majority and do nothing.

In Honor of Stupid People In case you needed further proof that the human race is doomed to stupidity, here are some actual label instructions on consumer goods:

On a Sears hairdryer -- Do not use while sleeping. (Shoot, and that's the only time I have to work on my hair.)

On a bag of Fritos -- You could be a winner! No purchase necessary. Details inside. (the shoplifter special)?

On a bar of Dial soap -- "Directions: Use like regular soap," (and that would be how??...)

On some Swanson frozen dinners -- "Serving suggestion: Defrost." (but, it's "just" a suggestion).

On Tesco's Tiramisu dessert (printed on bottom) -- "Do not turn upside down." (well...duh, a bit late, huh)!

On Marks & Spencer Bread Pudding -- "Product will be hot after heating." (...and you thought??...)

On packaging for a Rowena iron -- "Do not iron clothes on body." (but wouldn't this save me more time)?

On Boot's Children Cough Medicine -- "Do not drive a car or operate machinery after taking this medication." (We could do a lot to reduce the rate of construction accidents if we could just get those 5-year-olds with head-colds off those forklifts.)

On Nytol Sleep Aid -- "Warning: May cause drowsiness." (and...I'm taking this because??...)

On most brands of Christmas lights -- "For indoor or outdoor use only." (as opposed to...what)?

On a Japanese food processor -- "Not to be used for the other use." (now, somebody out there, help me on this. I'm a bit curious)

On Sainsbury's peanuts -- "Warning: contains nuts." (talk about a news flash)

On an American Airlines packet of nuts -- "Instructions: Open packet, eat nuts." (Step 3: maybe, ooh...fly Delta?)

On a child's Superman costume -- "Wearing of this garment does not enable you to fly." (I don't blame the company. I blame the parents for this one.)

On a Swedish chainsaw -- "Do not attempt to stop chain with your hands." (Oh my ..was there a lot of this happening somewhere?)

On a Korean kitchen knife -- "Warning: keep out of children." (hmm...something must have gotten lost in the translation...)

On a matress warning label -- "WARNING: Do not attempt to swallow." (What prompted this?)

On the back of a watch -- "For Best Results Use Other Side." (I start to question the world now.)

The white man said, "Colored people are not allowed here." The black man turned around and stood up. He then said: "Listen sir...when I was born I was BLACK, When I grew up I was BLACK, When I'm sick I'm BLACK, When I go in the sun I'm BLACK, When I'm cold I'm BLACK, When I die I'll beBLACK. But you sir, When you're born you're PINK, When you grow up you're WHITE, When you're sick, you're GREEN, When you go in the sun you turn RED, When you're cold you turn BLUE, And when you die you turn PURPLE. And you have the nerve to call me colored?" The black man then sat back down and the white man walked away...

I am the girl that doesn't go to school dances, or games, and when I do go, I sit in a corner and read a book. I am the girl that people look through when I say something. I am the girl that spends most of her free time reading, writing, or doing other activities that most teenagers wouldn't call normal. I am the girl that people call weird and a freak either behind my back or to my face. I am the girl that doesn't spend all her time on MySpace, or talking to a girlfriend on a cell phone or regular phone. I am the girl that hasn't been asked out in a year. I am the girl that has stopped to smell the flowers and jump and splash in the rain.

BUT I am also the girl who knows and is proud to be who she is, doesn’t care if people call her weird (it's a compliment), who loves reading and writing and doing the things that no one seems to have the time to do any more, who can express herself better with words than actions, who doesn't need a guy to complete her, and knows the importance of the little things.
