Hello, Sweetie

Our poor Doctor. He’s so harangued by River Song. LOL. Even the brief, surprise greeting of, “Hello, Sweetie,” elicits such a hangdog response that you just want to put your arm around The Doctor and tell him that everything will be okay. Being out of the loop, I had no idea there was a current running through fandom with theories about River. I’m pretty bad to take a plot point at face value and just let the story play out, but now I’m dying to get into the conspiracy theorists’ minds.

That’s the big difference with the new series; it’s smarter. Certainly not to disparage RTD’s helm, which was still largely better than anything else on television, but the nuances now are just a bit more mature and cerebral. Perhaps the least cerebral clue, as I mentioned before, is “The Crack” and though I did not spot the crack in the episode, it’s FINALLY being seen by The Doctor in the preview for next week’s episode. Next week’s episode, by the way, looks to be full of excitement, and motion, and intrigue.

In what I consider to be the mark of greatness for a show, a Twitter friend of mine is just getting into Doctor Who, and I’m proud to have him jump on board with Eleven and Amy. Welcome to the greatest show on Earth. Or Gallifrey. Or Raxacoricofallapatorius. Or, well, you get the picture. With The Doctor and the TARDIS, anything is possible!

  1. Seniors often worry about losing control of their daily lives. Your explanation of how Independent and Assisted Living still allow choices about meals, activities, and schedules matches what I’ve seen described on senior care .

  2. If you’re in St. Augustine and looking for the finest garage door repair near me, Wagmore Garage Doors is the genuine bargain. They turned up same-day for a broken spring, tuned the opener, and left every little thing well balanced and whisper-quiet garage door repair

  3. A good point about evaluating current and future needs—mobility, chronic conditions, and memory issues—before choosing a level of care. I downloaded a planning worksheet from dementia care that asked many of the same questions.

  4. Cost is a big factor when choosing between Independent Living, Assisted Living, and Nursing Homes. I’ve noticed that senior care offers helpful cost comparisons that line up with the differences you’ve described here.
