Moving house and a new obsession

My dad is very poorly, and I feel like it is the right time to move home now. I dislike my job, my friends have mostly, all moved on. The ones I went to University with all live in London and have proper jobs, whilst I am stuck here, with nothing, doing nothing. So on Sunday, I officially return to Derby. It’s sad, I grew up in Derby - but York feels like home. Not in the house: not at all. Just the streets, the geography and the people, that all feels homely. Of course, when I’m sat down with my Mum, Dad and Brother and our lovely pets, and a giant mug of tea in Derby, then that will be home for me…but I don’t like, or know the city…York has that ancient rustic feel everywhere and I love that. I’ll miss that.

I’m really upset about leaving my boyfriend too, we have been together for an entire year, pretty much to the day. I love him lots, and even though I’m really really going to miss him, I feel like this is going to show us both if we are really right for each other. We’ll both just wait, and see what happens. If we can make it work long distance, I mean Starlet and her fiancee have been doing the long distance thing forever, and they seem happy.

Righto…aside from my pathetic, but from the heart soppy mush, I’ve got a new obsession. And yes, as my stupid brother has pointed out that he liked Doctor Who first, but I’m watching the end of season three, and oh my god: I thought the episode ‘Doomsday‘ was good. I’ve not actually seen the last of Series 3 all the way through yet, (it’s on pause at the moment) but it’s been dramatic thus far. I’ve loved every twist an turn, well, with exception of the psychic ‘Doctor’ chanting thing. OK… it seems to work on some kind of crazy level, and perhaps it could of done something with all those satellites, but I find it very hard to believe that the world’s joint conciousness reversed the aging effect, and gave him powers to fly and be blue…wooo…

I also understand that Captain Jack will never die, but if orb things with knives (nope, not their official name) attacked me, no matter whether or not I could resuscitate myself, surely I’d have a few slashes across the face, or like, I dunno some holes in my limbs?

Also: the end-of-the-world-esq music, and those rockets, the rip in the sky / time-space continuum thing where the knife wielding orbs fell in - all together has been very dramatic, and has had me on the edge of my seat watching!…It sent my heart racing! I don’t think I’ve ever experienced that from a pre-watershed program before

One actual, final comment: I am really glad that Martha is (thus far in my viewing) the hero of the episode. Her acting is spot on, no question of that..and I am sure it is intentional, but next to Rose, Martha just seems week. I don’t mean in terms of strength or like I said her acting, but the actual story. It’s like the writers wanted Rose to be favoured by us, as indeed the Doctor favours her. I know Martha loves him, but it’s evident (as far as I’ve watched anyway) that he doesn’t love her like that, and I think it works so well. And well, I’ll be looking forward to the return of Rose next series…(a few episodes) perhaps they’ll run off and have time-lord / human babies? Eh! That would make a good spin off wouldn’t it?

God, with all these links it is beginning to feel like payperpost or something! It’s not! Don’t run off. I just really love Doctor Who!

Watched it? D’ya like it? Favourite Doctor? Best companion? Captain Jack: yes or no?
