Seven Impertinent Questions : a. Who’s the biggest idiot you know?
Well, that’s certainly an easy question, isn’t it? I think I’ve found that often times, the biggest idiot also tends to be the most arrogant and most conceded and most intelligent person I know. This, of course, would narrow this question down to one man: my travelling partner, the Doctor.
Please do not get me wrong. He really is an amazing individual. He’s courageous and determined and caring. He cares more for strangers he’s never met and planets he’s never visited before than anyone else I know. He has this… I suppose, this sensitivity about him that makes him naïve at times and very vulnerable. Overall, I think the best word to describe him would be ‘conundrum.’ But if it were my choice, I would go with idiot.
I’ve never met a man more oblivious to the opposite sex. It’s not… oh, it’s not as if I fancy him! Really, I promise you I don’t. Really! But, well. Once in a while a compliment towards the way I look would be appreciated. Especially when I go all out and find something rather lovely to wear and take careful care with my makeup and hair. But it’s really a wasted effort. He’d never notice me in that way. He’d never realize how much he makes me happy.
I’m his best friend. And because of who he is, I will never be anything more than that. I find the Doctor to be the biggest idiot I know sometimes. He’s oblivious and rude and impertinent. But I wouldn’t change anything about him. Not ever.
