The Five Stages of Grief…for the 11th Doctor
Listen, here we are, four episodes into a new season of Doctor Who. Peter Capaldi is here to stay, and I have to say, I’m thrilled. Don’t get me wrong, I loved Matt Smith’s Doctor, but I like the grumpiness and the alien-like qualities of the Doctor, and how much it hearkens back to the […]

Capaldi’s got clothes! Thoughts on the Twelfth Doctor’s costume
Last week the BBC released its first images of Peter Capaldi in his official costume as the Twelfth (Thirteenth if we count the War Doctor) iteration of our favorite Time Lord, the Doctor, and oh what a costume it is!

Thoughts on Chimpanzee (the movie, not the animal)
As this weekend was Earth Day, it was also the opening weekend for the new Disneynature movie, Chimpanzee. And as I have every year, I went with a group from the zoo to go see it. It’s always interesting to go see an animal movie w/ zoo people because we see things with that perspective. So […]

Sojourn
sojourn (n.) a brief period of residence; (v.) to live somewhere temporarily I spent November outside of Hawaii. I meant to blog about it as soon as I got back, but life can be a whirlwind (plus I’m still enjoying as much of my on-vacation-laid-back attitude as much as possible) and I haven’t gotten to […]
