Is there a bathroom on the Tardis?

There's apparently a pool in the library sometimes. But not always. So I guess there's a bathroom somewhere. I also wonder why sometimes when there's a new companion who is whisked away and she only has one outfit, the Doctor doesn't show her to the wardrobe that he does sometimes have so that Rose can go Victorian in an episode, but Amy has to wear her nightgown in New London?

And sometimes I realize that my obsession with the bathroom habits of fictional characters is not healthy. Hell, the Doctor may not have a wang for all I know. He has two hearts, but I have no proof of penis.

Lesson: I'm sure there's a bathroom on the Tardis, because it would be ridiculous to think there isn't. I'm sure it is fully stocked with women's toiletries and whatnot because those alien planets probably don't carry tampons.

This reminds me of the sudden concern I had one day while driving home if people in a coma pooped. I mean, I know they're kept alive with liquids so I would assume their "waste" is more of the pee variety, but when I posed this question to my faithful friends of the internet, it was confirmed that people in a coma do indeed poop. Just something to keep in mind if you're planning a coma.

Unrelated to pooping although it does eventually lead to a bathroom epiphany... I was skimming Facebook while eating my lunch today and came across a relationship status update by my ex boyfriend proclaiming his new relationship. Why it caused my heart to hiccup is really beyond me because I already knew he had a girlfriend. I met her. We were both at an awkward party for a 1 year old and because my ex is an idiot and I'm a nice person, his new girl kept coming over to talk to me as he wandered away to hang with the boys. She was nice.

Anyway, I was then reminded why I am constantly telling my friends to "unfriend" their exes on Facebook so as to not be weeding through cat-pictures, children-said-something-funny, and whatever your mom has to say about life, and then finding yourself faced with something you don't want to see.  In fact, I'm usually baffled as to why they don't unfriend them almost immediately, but here I am 15 months later facing "Dingle Dorf is in a relationship with Melissa NotYou". (Yes, her name is Melissa.)

I've always despised the updating of relationship statuses on Facebook (unless you're getting married, which I make an exception for) because it seems so public. And since I personally fear the public humiliation of another failed "in a relationship," I don't understand other people using it to share their comings-and-goings... I guess I would rather blog about it...

I sort of felt like crying so I went to the bathroom to emote, but I didn't have to pee. Or cry for that matter. And that's when I realized that I was keeping him as a friend on Facebook precisely to see his status changes. His twice-a-year-status-update or tagged-in-someone's-pictures is not going to make me feel good and is precisely the reason I'm not friends with certain other exes. Why am I smart sometimes and other times it takes me 15 months?

So I un-friended him. I do wish him well. I'm glad he found someone. I'm just sad he found someone that causes a status change on Facebook before I did. Because I hate losing. Or maybe I remembered it's okay to not be everyone's friend and he is totally less mature than I am and so anyway he started it what with everything and then the moving on successfully and stuff.

That's a totally normal response.

Also? Shut up.
