castalieHeeomg! I have my own TARDIS! Terri gave me my own TARDIS! God, I have the best friends in the whole universe *melts*
So okay, I'm the one in charge of collecting the mail in the household. This is partly because the parental unit is lazy and just won't do it and partly because they're jealous because I'm always receiving cards and letters and parcels - well, dude, just get your own lj, you know? But anyway, I'm the one checking the mailbox everyday. So that's what I do. And there are two parcels for me. One from amazon which was a long lost item, so yay, and one that comes from the UK and I'm already bouncing because parcel! From the UK! For me, whee!
I'm opening the thing, Mum being beside me and she's all curious and she's like 'so who is it from?' And though all Brits have the same handwriting to me - same thing for Americans, and I guess you'd think we French kinda all write the same way? - I recognise Terri's handwriting, so I tell her so. I also warn her that, considering who's the sender, the pressie might be... a bit of a NC-17 nature? But she takes it in stride and tells me that she knows Terri is the one who usually sends me all those BDSM stuff and just - I love my mother for a gazillion reasons but this is one of them. How she actually remembers that kind of stuff, you know?
Anyway, I open the parcel and OMGSQUEE! The TARDIS! Here, for me! All pretty and shiny and M.I.N.E! And it has speech and sound effects! And a flashing TARDIS lantern light! And opening front doors and omg! *dies*
Isn't it all shiny already?
But it's nothing compared to this. I mean, it's gorgeous!
Hee there are no words for how much I love my bday pressie, sis! Thank you SO MUCH! I've been wanting one of those since the new series aired and I was thinking of trying a keyring or something but this is so much BETTER and more PERFECT *kisses*
