What does your TARDIS look like?

May I make a confession? It is a little embarrassing, and once it's out I can't ever take it back... Here it goes! I've been dreaming Doctor Who for days. There, I said it. That's right, every night I have entertained Doctors, played the roll of a companion, or stared as River Song. I am not necessarily proud of my new obsession, but it hasn't cost me any money, injures, or extra time. I guess you can say  its a pretty safe one.

That being said, I will continue on my little Whovian series I've started. Today's project is finding that TARDIS. I have a theory that some of my very favorite fictional characters are actually Time Lords. I'll show you what I mean:

 That is just a few!! Oh so many possibilities. Anyway, if you created your Time Lord name the other day, you will need some transportation! Here is what you need to consider! First, you are not restricted to things that are actually considered to be transportation. Take the Doctor, a police phone box. This is possible because basically all a TARDIS is, is a time machine is disguise!

Although you don't have to use transportation, you could very well choose to.Take Ms. Frizzle up there, how practical that she would have a bus for a TARDIS. Choosing a TARDIS is less about formula (like your name) and more about what speaks to you. My husband selected a very large, orient, grandfather clock for his. If you are as stumped by the idea as I am, here are a few good ideas:

•  cars, trains, plane, buses
• pieces of furniture with doors
• large appliances
• phone booths, photo booths
• large boxes of all kinds

Still stumped? Consider this:

• What is in your favorite room in the house?
• What is your dream transportation?
•  What was your Time Lord name? Pick something fitting.
• Go against the flow, do something random. (I.E. Police Phone box!?)

How to Choose Your Time Lord Name

If you haven't noticed already, my family and I are a little nerdy. However, our biggest fandom at the moment is the gloriously entertaining (and usually very good looking)- Doctor Who. This show often leads my husband and I into long conversations that serious look into each aspect of the show. Its sad, but its true.

With this fascination comes are secret desires to be either a Time Lord or companion ourselves. Today we will be exploring the realm of Time Lords on the blog. We will discuss how to find your "name". The Doctor actually chose that name. Although no one actually knows his given name, "Doctor" is only truly a nickname. Every person can find their own name in this sense. His was chosen to repay his past debts and his mission to save other worlds (especially Earth). So what are you?

*Disclaimer: My apologies if you have no idea what I am talking about... you should watch the show.*

To choose your name, consider these things:

• Your Career
• Your Passions
• Your Current Titles (brother, sister, mother, leader, coach, etc)

After creating a list of all these things, see if there are any that seem to reoccur. Are there aspects of any of the three that are alike? If so, you are getting closer.

Once you have determined a realm, you must then choose a title. This is what it might look like. (These examples are my husband and I's)

Andrew's List

• Career- Librarian (Desired), Banker (Current), Educator (future)
• Passions- Books, superheros, learning, studying, archeology, music
• Current Titles- Father, husband, son, Banker

After looking at all this the reoccurring theme was books and study. From this my husband looked at the nicknames he has been given in the past and concluded on the name:

The Professor

My List

• Career- Educator
• Passions- Children, writing, children, being creative , fashion
• Current Titles- Wife, mother, daughter, sister, children's leader, writer

I instantly knew what the best name was for me after considering my list. I bet you can guess it!

The Mother
