Bathroom Quote of the Day
“I have realizations, like that life is bigger than us. People forget that, but I’m always aware of it. Like when I’m in the bathroom looking at my toilet paper, I’m like ‘Wow! That’s toilet paper?’ I don’t know if we appreciate how much we have.” Peter Nivio Zarlenga

If I could travel in time, I would follow the Doctor so I can hitch a ride on the TARDIS.
He said it. I would have to travel back with the Doctor, then I could go anywhere. If that is not an option, I would go to the beginning of the twentieth century so I could live through it. I would be living during what was probably the most fascinating period of human history, and I would know the end. It would be like being in a film, but already having read the book: you know how it ends.
