Yes, it's some Time Lord thing. The Master had done it, too. I think he's rather fond of that name. It was the name he used when I first met him. Of course it does, trouble seems to just follow him around, then it rubs off on us. Luckily it's fixable trouble. Mostly.
I once had to get a job to keep us both fed when the TARDIS was stuck in 2007, and we we're in 1969.
