The Day of the Doctor (spoilers behind links)
Hello, dear readers, on one of the best days of this year!
Are you as excited as I am? Anxious to see what will happen when Ten and Eleven meet? Will time and space implode in an overload of sexy? And how exactly does it play out when they compare their... screwdrivers*? (No really, that link is safe. They're actually comparing screwdrivers. Promise. Around 39'' and 49''. That's seconds, not inches. Have you ever looked at one and thought "Ooh, this could be a little more sonic?" Screwdriver, that is.)

Or are you completely confused as to what is going on and wondering how a day of a doctor can be a good thing when we've been taught to eat apples to keep them away (much like garlic and vampires)? This is why I don't eat apples. Can't risk it. Imagine you heard that whooshing sound in your bedroom and ran in to see the TARDIS starting to materialise... the Doctor pokes his head out the door, then makes a face: "Ugh, apples! Quick, I need to get out of here!". He slams the door and the TARDIS fades, never to return.
Sorry, vitamins, I know you mean well, but you don't beat all of time and space and a 900-year old Time Lord to show them to me.
Oh right, you were confused as to what was going on. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.
Well, since you've obviously been living under a rock or at least away from all social media, I feel it is my duty to inform you of the fact that the show Doctor Who is 50 years old today. That's pretty darn impressive, don't you think? Well I do, and fortunately the BBC and several million people agree, and so we will all gather around our TV screens and in movie theatres around the world tonight to watch the special episode, The Day of the Doctor.
And if Doctor Who has taught us anything, it is that the power of so many minds focusing on the Doctor at exactly the same moment can save us all**. So just in case you're being held prisoner somewhere, Doctor, hold on. Just a few more hours.

P.S. I was going to show you my Doctor Who mani, but I spent all day cuddling my BFF's beautiful baby so I don't have time to mess around with photos and will add them tomorrow.
Edited on 24 Nov: Added the pictures - a minimalist mani using as many Doctor Who-themed polishes as possible without going overboard. LynBDesigns Time and Relative Dimension in Space on the four fingers, thumb is LynBDesigns Snog Box topped with a layer of Lucky 13 Lacquers Wibbly Wobbly Timey Wimey, Doctor Who logo in LynBDesigns Slim and a Little Bit Foxy, highlighted with Wibbly Wobbly Timey Wimey. Clear top coat. Cheesy sparkle effect courtesy of my camera special effects.
The episode was fantastic and shall be discussed at a later date. Right now I have to re-watch a certain episode*** to see how that fits with the new canon.
