I've just seen your post about depression hitting you. I'm sending you a big, warm hug, Abbey! This too shall pass (and I say it very confidently because I'm clutching to this quote with my hands and legs). You must be so tired and sad now, just know, please, that there are people who love you. You're the best. Also, you take such wonderful pictures! 🥰
sasha!! ❤ i seem to have missed this post in all the clutter of my inbox, but it just surfaced now—when i really needed to read it. thank you so much, dear.
and if i may, i am repeating it back to you: this too shall pass! ❤ be patient with yourself. one of my favorite reminders of all time comes from jeanette winterson, in her book oranges are not the only fruit.
it helps me (attempt to) continuously reframe my feelings as temporary states—always shifting, for good or bad—rather than a permanent sinkhole to be stuck in.
this feeling—or absence of feeling—is one moment of many. someday soon you (and i!) will feel another thing. and another and another. in that tide, inspiration is bound to come back. hope is bound to come back.
Sending you hugs! I'm sure you will do brilliantly at your new job. You have every right to feel anxious, but everyone here supports you and knows you will be great 🌈❤️
OH MY GOD I JUST MADE THE CONNECTION BETWEEN UR URL AND TEA AND I AM FREAKING OUT?????
( @deardiary17 answering both of you here... i’m DYING haha, i wasn’t expecting to cause a stir with that reblog 😂)
to be fair, the “a” is missing in the “earl” part so it’s an easy miss!! in actuality though, i stole this name completely from my all-time favorite specialty earl grey tea from a local store:
they’re a nerdy hang-out/board game store/cat shelter/tea shop, aka heaven, and all of their blends have nerd themes (i also drink “bad wolf tea” which is just black tea and rose!). earl grey is my favorite basic tea flavor and i used to love bbc sherlock (yes, i recognize there’s some problematic writing and characters, but i’ve got my personal sentimental attachments) so i had to try it and fell in love with it ☕💗🥰
neither of these words are my name! (and sherlie/shirley/etc makes me laugh because i picture bbc sherlock when i hear it LOL) in a very feeble attempt to remain anonymous i haven’t put my name anywhere public, though if an irl finds me this tea screenshot is probably an instant identifier anyways so that’s awkward 😂

@deardiary17 you sent this yesterday to my main I'm guessing by accident but I wanna do it
They were in trouble. Again. It wasn't all that surprising honestly, they seemed to have a knack for finding themselves in these situations. But this? This was new.
"Do you even know how to drive?" Rose asked as she got situated in the car the Doctor was currently sonicking to be their getaway vehicle.
The Doctor scoffed, Rose couldn't see much of his face from where he was trying to hotwire the car, just a headful of spiky brown hair but she could picture the offended expression on his face that went along with that sound.
"I'm 900 years old of course I can drive." The Doctor said sitting up and suddenly they were speeding away from the pursuers.
Rose was slammed into her car door as they swung around a corner at high speed. She glared at him as she clutched at the seat.
"I think you're lying to yourself."
"Rose Tyler!" The Doctor shrieked insulted, "I got us away didn't I?"
"Coulda done it without the bruising?" She sniped back.
"No pleasing you." The Doctor tutted.
"Why do you own so many cars?" Amy asked striding into the console room.
Ah, it seemed she'd find the garage on her wander today.
Rose briefly looked up from her book at the red head.
"Ready to go dear?" Her bowtie wearing Doctor beamed as he hopped over the door of the open roofed car.
Rose quickly followed suit, buckling herself in as soon as she was seated.
"Please tell me you've gotten better at driving?" She tentatively asked as he ran the sonic over the controls.
"Only one way to find out!" He grinned.
Rose couldn't help but grin back.
"Uh they're not ours." Rose answered absently, still lost in memory.
"They're stolen?" Amy questioned, eyes bulging.
Rose shrugged. Really she didn't understand why she was so surprised she'd been there when the Doctor had stolen his outfit from the hospital.
"Where do you think most of the clothes in the wardrobe room are from? We own very little on this ship."
"Unbelievable, I'm living with criminals." Amy muttered to herself as she exited the room.
-x-
"Now let's see if I remember how to do this?" The Doctor muttered, a curtain of blonde hair falling over her face as she bent over to look at the controls.
Rose rolled her eyes at her wife, typical.
"Switch. I'll do it." Rose told her as she climbed over the seats to get to the drivers.
The Doctor squeezed past her to allow her space, getting comfortable in the passenger seat while Rose ran her own pink tipped sonic over the controls.
It wasn't long before they were peeling away leaving the shouts of the local species behind.
"Huh, should let you drive more often. I definitely have less bruises than usual." The Doctor broke the silence after a couple of minutes of driving.
Rose shook her head unable to stop the fondly exasperated smile tugging at her lips.
"That's what I've been trying to tell you babe."
Thank you for the ask darling! Sorry if this wasn't what you intended
What's your favourite thing to do after a long day?
Ooh, I love to make garlic bread and watch an old episode of a favorite TV show. It's such a nice way to relax! Alternatively I'll go to the market and get myself some cookie dough to munch on.
