Happy New Who Day!

by sj

So, I may look like this right now:

Shut up, it’s Saturday morning NO I HAVEN’T BRUSHED MY HAIR YET.

But inside I’m like this:

New episodes of Doctor Who are as exciting as Christmas in this house.  My two oldest boys (almost 13 and 6) have been talking about it for WEEKS, bugging the crap out of me “WHEN IS NEW DOCTOR WHO, MOMMY?  MOMMY!  MOMMY!  WHEN IS NEW DOCTOR WHO?!”  So when we found out the date, I had to write it on the calendar, and they’ve been counting down the days since then.

The five year old is less than thrilled.  Even with the promise of staying up past his bedtime to watch with us, he was ready to cry before bed last night.

“What’s wrong, baby?” I asked.

“Mommy, I don’t like that my ONLY TWO OPTIONS are to watch Doctor Who with you or to go to bed.  That is NOT NICE!  You KNOW I only like the 9th Doctor and ROSE!”

“Well, I’m sorry, but there is no more 9th – but we can watch him on netflix tomorrow if you want.”

“You know that ISN’T THE SAME.”

I’m still dealing with it.  He’s been sulking all day so far and I have no idea what I’m going to do to keep him from crying tonight.  Hopefully husband can find something to distract him with to keep him out of our hair, because in case I haven’t mentioned it?  NEW DOCTOR WHO TODAY!

Meg and I spent last night hashing out ideas for tee shirts, and WE HAVE ONE DONE!  You can find a design with our FAVOURITE River Song quote from last series in our shop here.  We’re hoping to come up with other awesome things before too much longer, but both of us really love this one (and my 12 year old is bugging the crap out of me to buy him one for his 13th birthday WHICH IS COMING UP).  We hope you do too.

Also, for those of you that are new here, you can see one Meg’s very first owl cartoons (which does a very good job of explaining what my kids are like when it comes to the Doctor) by clicking here.

HAPPY NEW WHO DAY, EVERYONE!

  1. I love that you are always naked in your photos. *giggles*

  2. We’re a bunch of Whovians in this house too! Can’t wait!

      • I did! I was so excited that they went back a plot-line that I could understand (I was going a little crazy with all the River Song stuff for a bit)! Very curious about how they’ll deal with the new companion twist. Did you like it?

        • I really did. It was a good one that I was able to watch with my two boys that are into it without having to explain too much. Pretty sure I saw the oldest get a little teary at the end.

          I’m also interested in how they’re going to bring her back in the Christmas episode. There are so many different ways it could go!

  3. I was wondering about the lack of clothing too.. :)

    I haven’t watched Dr. Who since I was a kid, have no experience with the new ones. I’d probably love it if I saw it, but haven’t seen it on any of our network channels.

  4. Can’t wait for the new episode to air. I too have been counting down the days.

  5. I have to work so have to wait VERY MANY HOURS for my hit. I am not responsible for my actions.

  6. Your 5 year old is adorable XD You’re so lucky your show of current obsession is starting again… I’m still feeling the pangs of Sherlock withdrawal. I want season 3 very much. So very much.

  7. Just watched the Dr. Who. Thought it was awesome. But I missed you this weekend… sigh…
