I finally had one of those dreams everyone keeps talking about. It was weird, so different from my ordinary life. I was British, I was still dating Rose and the worked in this shop that ended up getting blown up. She met this guy called The Doctor and I got kidnapped by this creature. It was all little scary, honestly. And then Rose went off with him, The Doctor. After we all nearly got killed because of him, she just left me to go off with a stranger.

Is this what they're all like? It took me a minute to even realize it was just a dream.

So, I guess the whole friends with an ex thing is just as complicated in my Dream World as it is here. I told my ex that I was going to Oxford, and he didn't take it all that well. I don't know, I shouldn't have tried. All of the things between us were so complicated. A clean break probably would have been the best thing for both of us.

As much as I enjoy the occasional traveling I do for my job, it's always nice to be home.

I think I'm up for a promotion at work, which is really awesome. But I'm also starting to feel like I'm just stuck in a rut there right now and I'm almost to the point of internally debating if I should switch up and look for a new job or not. I just want to find something that sparks that passion inside me again and helping with Torchwood is only a small-time thing for now since we're definitely not under the kind of alien threat we were in my dreams.

Anyone need a computer engineer with some really awesome skills?

It seems only fitting that I start dreaming again after all this craziness is finally wrapped up. In my dreams I've finished up travelling with the Doctor, finally met Martha, and now I've decided to join UNIT (United Nations Intelligence Taskforce) to combat the kind of things that Torchwood and the Doctor fight against. It is basically just live living here in the OC, but apparently after a while of that Martha and I decided that we wanted to do our own thing and went freelance. I don't think I would have ever predicted this kind of life for myself at the beginning of the dreams, but it really seems to fit now.

Just when you think things can't get worse, you have a dream.

There is nothing more frightening than a child with a gas mask on, walking around and asking 'Are you my mummy?'

Well, I'm stuck at the hospital for as long as this lasts. Ironically, I'm pretty sure this is about the same time last year that I was stuck here during the blue flu. Hopefully this doesn't last as long as that did.

Maybe I've just had too many dreams, but I feel like this would usually be the part where The Doctor would try to do something, in the dreams, about the volcano and it'd wine up being caused by some alien race.

How quickly the tide can change.

It was just the other day I felt on top of the world despite being jobless. I saw it as an opportunity to do something better, not just the same hum drum job. I had plans, I felt motivated...

And then I had another dream.

I saw the world end. Our world. Not only that, but I came thisclose to being burned alive. There were aliens of all kinds, all in despair at the end. There was adventure, but more heartache then I cared for. Even the Doctor had his moments. The only hope I had was him. Despite the heartache and strangeness of the situation, he was there.

I can already tell this man is going to be a constant in my dreams. And I don't think I mind.

[Companions of the Doctors]
Did anyone else have that feeling? That even after all the weird shite we've been through with him, we'll always be there for him? I've only dreamt of him two times and I already have this strange feeling of love and compassion for him. Is that possible?

It's happened! The big day! The dreams! They came!

I am now officially apart of the club!

It was so particular. There was a man...big nose, big ears, but funny. Determined. Random. He had this police call box he traveled around in, I think it's called the TARDIS? And there were these mannequins that were attacking people, but they were really aliens and we had to stop them.

Dear lord, I sound mental don't I? Everyone else has had strange dreams before, it shouldn't be so hard to believe. But it is. Still trying to take it all in. Thank goodness I have today off. I think today is the kind of day to stay in bed, ponder, and have a nice cup of tea.

My brother thinks he's so funny. When my family was visiting at Christmas, the night we all went to dinner with Mickey, Leo decided to give Mickey the "Brother Talk", which is funny, because I'm older than Leo, but anyway, so Leo texts me randomly today saying he was just checking in to make sure Mickey was still behaving himself and to let him know if he wasn't so he could mess him up. What a goober.

I just want to say that Cybermen are some of the creepiest things I've ever seen. Yes, the dreams are back, annoyingly. I stayed over in the parallel universe fighting Cybermen until they decided to break through into the current world. I will say that Torchwood Institute is a nice place to visit, but apparently they don't do strong background checks if I managed to sneak in among them. And fighting the Cybermen has really changed me and made me more of a BAMF than I was before in these dreams.

Unfortunately even that kind of training doesn't prepare you for when the Daleks decide to come out of the void. Cybermen vs Daleks was one of the more entertaining things I've seen since they both think they're the dominant species. But luckily with the combined smarts of everyone, especially The Doctor, we manage to save this world but Rose/Jackie/and I have to stay in the parallel universe in order for it to happen. A depressing end to a victory.

[Doctor]
I'm truly sorry about you and Rose.

Bloody hell! I think my laptop has a virus. I don't know how I would have gotten a virus, because I don't download things, but it keep shutting down on me every time I get to the desktop. This wouldn't be so bad if I didn't need my laptop for work. Luckily I don't need anything off it tomorrow and I have the upcoming Science test on a flash drive, but I am going to need things off it before Christmas break. Can anyone help?

I'm so excited! My parents, sister and brother are coming out here for Christmas! They're flying in the weekend before and staying at a nearby hotel. And I'll even get to spend time with them, because we just had two doctors transfer in from Chicago and Boston. More doctors means Martha doesn't have to work a hundred hours a week. I'll finally get to catch up on my sleep and spend more time with my boyfriend and my friends. I almost forgot what having a social life was like.

My birthday was the other day and I'm so glad that I have such a lovely girlfriend to spend it with. Due to this unfortunate ability to always tell the truth she was able to actually spend the day with me and was nice enough to cook me a meal! It's been a long time since someone cooked me a meal for my birthday and I haven't gone out to a restaurant. Definitely one of my better birthdays. Now I just need to figure out if I want to go back to see my grandmother for Thanksgiving in a couple weeks or not.

I was thinking of going out this weekend to celebrate since my birthday fell on a Wednesday. Would anyone be up for that? Not quite sure where to go, so I am definitely open for suggestions.

I'm very happy to be dating a doctor because she has made sure that I am still alive even though I frightened her when she woke up and saw that I had no mouth. Which I have to admit is still one of the strangest sensations of my life. It's just such a useful body part and now I look like a freak without one. Hopefully this will be over soon.

The only downside is the time I'm spending in the hospital. I told work I had the flu and they seem to be okay with me not coming in. But this has also given me a lot of time to sleep and of course those dreams found me.

So, let's see.... I said goodbye to Rose and the Doctor as they went off on another round of trips. Then I alerted the Doctor to activity in this school in town so he and Rose came back to investigate. That was a lot of fun because I met Sarah Jane Smith the drama between she and Rose and this tin dog called K9 (who is basically my alter ego) and I ended up joining Rose and the Doctor on the TARDIS. I will say that it's never a dull moment with the two of them. I dreamt about Clockwork Droids and the the Cybermen.... Being in an alternate universe with a twin version of yourself is something quite interesting. It was also a bit painful because my grandmother was alive in this universe and I decided to stick around after my twin died. I'm not sure how it'll play out, but it seems almost lonely.

What am I doing on this lovely Wednesday evening? Oh you know....just sitting in my Grandmother's house and watching my girlfriend freak out about the Red Sox in this World Series game. I don't know when the last time my grandmother watched a sporting event, but Martha was quite insistent. I think she's scaring my grandmother with the celebrating she's been doing.

Let's just hope it keeps going this way.

I think I might have to go take a trip to visit my Grandmother back home soon. It's been a while and she usually has me help decorate her house for the holidays and she wants to see me before Thanksgiving happens. Which I am super excited about because she makes the most amazing Thanksgiving dinner ever, but I'm extremely biased in that opinion.

So, what's everyone's favorite fall activity? I'm kind of looking forward to the fun Halloween horror events that go on. Who doesn't love being scared? Oh and apple cider.

[Martha]
Would you like to come with me when I go to visit her?

X-ray vision is not all it's cracked up to be. I don't see through clothes, so don't worry ladies, and while it's neat to be able to see the inside of a computer it makes it hard to actually do anything. Imagine driving but the cars keep flashing in and out of being solid in your vision. I narrowly avoid a couple accidents this week. And my coworkers think I'm insane because I tried wearing sunglasses for an entire day.

This almost makes me wish I had stayed in Northern Califnorna.

Any kind of last hurrah for summer things going on this weekend? I have an urge to grill and go to the beach again. Maybe we should make a big party out of it. Especially for those poor kids who are back to school or going back very soon. I will say that I'm kind of excited for school to get back into session because it makes it a lot easier to go have lunch around town when there's not a lot of tourists or families there. Thankfully only five drinks were lost in the battle this summer.

The Camaro is not for sale.

The Camaro is not for sale.

I don't know many times I have to say that.

We're an auto body shop, not a dealership. There's no FOR SALE sign on it. Just because you see it in the parking lot, or see me working on it, doesn't mean it's for sale.

Especially if you see me working on it. It could be some random person's car. Why would you want to buy some random person's car?

Things have been so quiet lately. I know, I know -- bodies were swapped and all that -- but luckily, nothing happened to me this time around. So, on my end it's been pretty quiet. Haven't had any dreams lately either, maybe they've stopped? Are they like growing pains and you can just grow out of them? I wish.

I think we may need to have a TARDIS party very soon. I need to get out and go do things. I've been swamped at work and I'm ready to do something that is somewhat relaxing. Anyone have any good suggestions?

I had another dream last night. This time The Doctor and I got stuck in 1969 because of these creatures called Weeping Angels that looked like statues of angels, but if they touched you then they'd send you back in time. So we got stuck without the TARDIS and I had to work to support The Doctor. Eventually we got the TARDIS back and got out of there, but those Weeping Angels were really creepy.

So, I want to do something on my next day off. Something besides hanging around my apartment and sleeping. I don't want to waste the rest of the summer just because I worked two twelve hour shifts back to back or something.

It must be that time of the month. I basically slept all day today and had one of the most elaborate dream I've ever had. It seemed to be quite a few memories all put into one night of sleeping, which has left me even more exhausted. It started out with a flashback to see Rose and I as children and probably my first run-in with an alien. Then it switched to me having a nice meal with Rose, Jack, and our Doctor before we figured out the Slitheen (an alien) we thought we had taken care of was still around. And there was a lot of awkwardness between Rose and I, which didn't end nicely. Then we get to the hardest parts of the dreams where our Doctor who changed into a new Doctor, which I wasn't expecting to happen and I know was hard on Rose. The last part of my dream was an alien invasion on Christmas with the new Doctor trying to regain his strength. Thankfully everything worked out fine, like it tends to do with the Doctor around. And all I know is that I am never buying a Christmas tree ever again.

Last night I had a dream, after weeks of nothing. I can't even remember the last time I had one actually. Not only did I have a dream, but I got another item from it. This time is was a cell phone. A cell phone that The Doctor adjusted so that I could call my mom or pretty much anyone from anyplace in space and time.

As for the dream, we replied to a distress call from another ship and found out that the engines were dead and they were on a crash course with a star and had 42 minutes. The Doctor sent me and one of the ship's crew to open a series of doors to access the engines. Suffice to say, I almost died, but I was able to contact The Doctor before it was too late. Then the tables were turned and I had to save The Doctor.

In real world news, The Bruins need to shape up for Monday. They can't let Chicago win in Boston.

I am so completely over having these dreams. Just had another and it was extremely long and I woke up completely exhausted. It was like I hadn't even slept the night before. I was extremely tempted to call into work. The dream started off really badly and eventually got better. Am I going to be fending for my life in all of these dreams? After all the shit that went down in that dream I could really use a stiff drink, ugh.

Alright, so I was hoping that I would miss out on this dream bandwagon, but noooo. I had a weird dream about aliens! Okay, so that's not that interesting, but they were creepy mannequin type aliens and I was swallowed by a freaking trash bin! And Rose was there and she ended up running off with a guy called The Doctor in a blue Police box kinda rude.

It is on days like this that I'm really glad I moved out of Oklahoma. Severe weather is starting back up again and tornadoes are already starting to touch down in the state. I can't tell you how many tornado drills I went through as a kid and when I go home to see my grandmother the sound of sirens gets my heart beating. My heart goes out to everyone that is affected by those tornadoes that do touch down and that reminds me to call my grandmother and make sure that everything is alright where she is.

Well, Mexico's safe and we're not going to see another "End of the World" phenomenon for a while. The Doctor and I had a blast drinking margaritas and sleeping on beaches though.

Here's proof we didn't try to kill each other. )

Looks like we missed out on a horrible plague or something too. I just got home, but I think I'll stay there. Going out right now seems like a bad idea.

Christmas went really well. Everyone loved their gifts (as far as I can tell) and we've been doing nothing but enjoying our time together. Harry is coming over for New Years and probably taking the kids somewhere.

Thus I will be by myself for the countdown. I shouldn't be so excited, but I am a bit, to have the house to myself for one evening. I don't even know what to do with myself.

So, this is where the party's at? Normally I just stick to trade boards and facebook, but someone said that talking socially rather than professionally might do me some good, so here I am. Hi. I'm Tink. I fix cars.

I almost became a weeping angel last night. That one was pretty terrifying.

Thanks to everyone who suggested that I actually try Thanksgiving this year. It turned out pretty well, I think. Though I'm not sure my kids want me in the kitchen anymore.

Now onto Christmas. Just thinking about going shopping makes my old bones ache. I should hire a shopper. Anyone want to? You have to buy for teenagers.

I do hate awfully to be a bother, but Rose has been asleep literally the entire weekend and no part of that seems normal to me.

Any thoughts? Suggestions? Yes, I already tried water, shouting, loud music and true love's kiss so don't bother with those.
