Only the best of the best for my friends -- and I highly recommend EVERYTHING from Hyperbole and a Half if you aren't familiar with her; she's so hilarious she'll make your sides ache. :D

I am familiar. But you have prompted me to read this post again. I'm always torn with this one between feeling super sad for her, because legitimately depression is a big deal, and laughing my head off, because... you know, she SO FUNNY, ALWAYS.

Guilt!

As someone who has been crying off and on all day for no real reason, I needed to see something like this.

That Doctor Who quote popped up on my Tumblr dashboard shortly after my Grandmother passed away and I remember staring at it because I knew those words had taken on new meaning for me and I was letting that sink in. Then I turned around and wrote out the whole thing on my grease board and it's been there ever since.

I'll be bookmarking this for the future. Thank you so much for putting this together. It's a wonderfully kind and generous thing to do. ♥
