Today when I look out onto my backyard, this is the glorious sight that greets me.
For real, y’all.
- WHEN WORLDS COLLIDE.
PS. I have the best husband ever.
PPS. I just realized that the PS might imply that my husband bought me a TARDIS, but no, of course he didn’t. What he did was not freak out when a giant package arrived at our door and I said “Oh, that’s probably the TARDIS I ordered since the pharmacy wouldn’t give me one for my birthday.” I mentioned it was way cheaper than Beyonce the giant metal chicken and he paled a little and walked away before I could mention that we also need new towels. Then I went off and carried a cardboard TARDIS all over our property to take pictures of it and Victor yelled “YOU KIDS GET OFF MY PROPERTY” in his most cantakerous-old-man voice. When I was done I left the TARDIS in front of his office window and made really loud TARDIS noises. Victor was on a conference call and was very unimpressed, but you can’t deter the furiously happy, Victor. Unless, that is, you go back in time and make me not buy a cardboard TARDIS. You’d need a real TARDIS to do that though. Which would be awesome and I would trade in my cardboard TARDIS for it in a heartbeat. So no matter what, I win. Which is only right since this is my birthday present to me. Happy late birthday, me.
Enjoy your time.
PPPS. I got cactus in my foot getting this picture. It’s not a great one but there’s no way I’m not linking to it since I suffering through cactus-foot for it.
PPPPS. If you don’t watch Doctor Who this whole post is probably very confusing. You should skip it.
PPPPPS. Victor: “That PPPPS. would probably be a lot more helpful if you go back and put it at the top.”
me: ”IF ONLY I HAD A TIME MACHINE.”

WOW, a lot can happen in a few weeks. I’ve been behind on my blog/Twitter reading, and the last time I checked you were saying something about never having seen Dr. Who. I yearn to know how you went from never having seen it to having a large iconic prop from the show in your back yard. Time to hit the archives…

The Tardis is the perfect edition to your back yard! You should start giving guided tours of your collections. Beyonce and the Tardis in the backyard, the dollhouse in your attic. The various taxidermied creatures. People would pay money for that. You could give it to charity. Or just buy something new for your collection. Whatever works.
The WHOLE cactus???
this was my second thought.
I just want to know where you got the TARDIS because I need one of my very own.
For those asking where to get one: Here’s the TARDIS. It’s just a one-sided stand-up but it’s remarkably lifelike from the right side.
Jenny the bloggess recently posted..These are just two of my favorite things
Dear Jenny,
Nothing witty this time…except I almost said i wanted your back yard…then realized that the internet would immediately become unforgiving and forget that you had a Tardis in your back yard if I did
Very awesome birthday purchase though. I always wondered why people did Garden Gnomes when they could totally do Beyonces and Tardis’ (is it…Tardi for plural?)
Anyhow, it’s Friday the 13th. Have a great one!

Ok, I do have a TARDIS or 2 of my own, but they pale in comparison to your life-size version. One does hold tea though… Makes me feel a little bit Brit- ty.
Cheers!

At the very least, it looks cool. And the cactus picture? Totally worth the pain.
Andie recently posted..Son, Margaret Cho will F*** You Up But Good.
Ahh, if only you had a real TARDIS, then you could have saved yourself from cactus foot. Unless, it’s one of those things that simply cannot be changed. In that case you should just feel nice that your cactus foot was that important.

After a most horrible week this whole post made me so FURIOUSLY HAPPY! I can *totally* see Matt Smith bounding out of that TARDIS to have a very important chat with Beyonce, and it brings me nothing but joy.
I love it! And the photos look incredible. My favorite Dr. Who was the crazy Tom Baker actor. I had such a crush on him as a tween (before they were called that). I’m currently Netflixing the second season with Rose as the traveller. It’s horribly addicting, and I fully intend to get all the way through five seasons during this long weekend.
Thanks for the photos – love the idea!

The only thing that could make you even more awesome was you becoming obsessed with the Doctor (because no one just ‘loves’ him…it’s either apathy or total obsession.)

Balls. I’m going to have to start watching Dr. Who now after years of holding out because my manfriend tried to force it on me too early.
The Dr. Who. Not other things.
This is exactly why I’m not allowed to comment on blogs anymore…
Lady B recently posted..Lets be honest, none of us are running a damned marathon
Having that Tardis in your backyard looks a lot like you have a porta-potty back there. I’m sure the neighbors are loving that you got Beyonce adequate facilities so she will stop using their yard.
I can’t believe that Tardis is cardboard!
Now you need a giant laminating machine so that the weather can’t hurt it.
Nothing can top a Tardis, but my belated Christmas present to myself came in the mail last week: “Doctor Who: The Complete David Tennant Years.” It’s a 26-disc set of all three seasons, as well as all the specials. I likely will not leave my couch, ever again. Someone will find me dead thirty years from now, with the remote still clutched in my fist.
OMG!!! Try very hard to keep it dry so you can enjoy it forever and ever!!!
That’s it. I am buying a TARDIS. I will no longer be thwarted by my husband. If Victor can handle it, so can he.
If I come across a real one, I’ll let you know, and you can come up here and use it. But we’ll need to come up with some code words, because we can’t just be announcing that on blogs or tweets or emails… but what should our code be? “The chicken is in the box”? “Prepare for cactus injury?”
Sarah recently posted..Please, Beyoncé, Let Us Help You!
I remember watching Dr Who with my Dad, when Tom Baker was the Dr. I haven’t seen it recently. But I could totally go for a Tardis of my own. And even a giant metal chicken. I wonder how my HOA would react to that.. Hmmmmm
Anna recently posted..It’s A Battle Of Wills
My neighbors are putting a second story on their house, and there’s a portapotty in the front yard for the construction workers. Every time I see it, I have the overwhelming urge to paint it blue, and put a little light on the top…. Now THAT would be useful in the back yard.
from a distance it looks just like a real Tardis, in my professional opinion. (based on all the Tardii I have seen anyway)
addtova recently posted..Fort Mac Awesome

Now you just need a visit from “The Doctor” – personally, I’d prefer him in the following order:
David Tennant (sexy)
Christopher Eccleston (moody & dark)
Matt Smith (goofy)
But this is a topic of much debate. Happy belated birthday. Now I know what JW can get me for my birthday/anniversary
And another reason why i think you may be a long lost sister or something……..
Rebecca recently posted..A Pale Horse Named Death Streaming Live From Brooklyn
At first I was offended and all like, “Jenny, seriously – we shouldn’t use the word “Tardis” to talk about … oh … wait” … and then I realized.
So basically, sorry I judged you.
anna @ HaHas for HooHas recently posted..Birth Control: Weird, and a Touch Awkward
I am so fucking jealous of your Tardis its ridiculous.
I am only slightly less jealous of the fact that you can watch Doctor Who since they Nixed it off all our local channels.
I noticed you haven’t reviewed the TARDIS on Amazon yet. I believe you should. I mean look at all the work you have done testing it out all over your yard. It’s even good for interrupting conference calls. People need to know these things before purchasing!
Stephanie H recently posted..New year, new adventures.
Love this. Love, love, love …
You are so awesome!!! Right now I’m imagining The 10th Doctor’s face when he walks out of that TARDIS and sees Beyonce standing there. Copernicus should be there too.
BTW, you’re the reason I started watching Doctor Who, my friends spent years trying to get me to start but after reading your tweets and posts about it, I decided that it was awesome enough to try. I spent 2 whole weeks watching all 6 seasons….and dreaming of TARDIS’s.
aussieforgood recently posted..My Latest Hiatus Obsession(s)
That is some high quality cardboard! You could use a giant laminator or do what I would do and buy a gazillion rolls of clear box tape and laminate it with that. Cause I am cheap, I mean, awesome like that.
Just out of curiosity, which Doctor got you hooked? I started watching the show with the 11th Doctor, but I can’t bring myself to watch the older ones yet.
Awesome! Add me to the jealous pile! Who is your favorite Doctor? MIne is David Tennant. I want to lick each of his adorable freckles. Chris Eccleston is my second favorite.
If only Beyonce could use the Tardis to go back and time and NOT name her poor little chick, Blue.
Gina aka Slappy recently posted..Why I Love Twitter
I saw your Doctor Who tweet when it first when by, and I thought, “Yup, that is EXACTLY how it works.” I ended up making a miniature 10th Doctor hybrid playset after watching the most recent five series. It has The Doctor, a dalek, a sonic screwdriver, and a TARDIS.
Victor: If you really cared about your posse, you would have included a link to where they can buy cardboard TARDIX.
Jenny: You’re not Victor.
Me: Am too. Link to TARDICIDES NOW.
Jenny: Victor would never call you a “posse”. And the plural of TARDIS is not TARDICIDES. You make it sound like a disease.
Beyonce: I Am A Metal Chicken. U Link TARDII Now.
Jenny:…
TIME LORD?
Jenny:…

I’ve changed my mind, I don’t need a traveling red dress, I need a traveling TARDIS.
I think you need a mini-Tardis for the backyard of the haunted dollhouse.
Seriously, you have the most magical back yard EVER!
I know that Beyonce was purchased in lieu of towels, but I have to wonder if your obsession with towels is in any way linked to Douglas Adams’ Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.
I have friends that made one out of plywood for a contest –it was nearly an exact replica. I would totally want one in my back yard but since I live in a climate with rain and snow, the cardboard version wouldn’t last very long–I would have to build a wood one. However have you seen the Tardis Corset?
I got this necklace for Christmas, you will like it.

Jenny, for the love of all things unholy, PLEASE sell this as a poster in your shop. i would buy like ten of them. For serious.
Everyone should have a TARDIS.
From the moment I first saw them, I thought a Dalek would make a PERFECT pasta drying rack. Just a thought.
I actually Love the cactus-in-foot-linked-to-flickr-picture. Very fairytale-ish. Sometimes you gotta suffer to make great art!

(Photographer who wishes she had a tardis, too)
I am so jealous!!!!!!!!!!! I have Tardis envy <3 I also need towels, but if it came down to towels vs. Tardis, Tardis would win hands down (or double hearts-down, as it were)
Can we have a HD version of the photo for computer backgrounds?
I don’t watch Dr. Who since I don’t have cable anymore, but I get the basic idea of it and that is one mighty fine Tardis ya got there, ma’am. If only Beyonce could get inside it and go visit her giant, metal, poultry family from the 1800′s. THAT, my dear, would be a sight to behold!

There is absolutely nothing more awesome than a TARDIS and a giant metal chicken in the same yard. Unless, of course, that same yard were MY yard…because chickens that don’t take shit from anyone and come equipped with their own shivs are only slightly less bad-ass than big blue boxes of wibbley-wobbley, timey-wimey awesomeness. I tip my imaginary hat to you.

I really want the TARDIS but, really don’t want to clean so I decided to hire my 16 yr old nephew to clean up the garage. I have to say this is a win/win for me since I will be paying him with the $30 I have collected from the dryer that only could have fallen from my husband’s pocket.

Every household needs numerous TARDISES. TARDII? Either way, yes, you should probably get more.
I am sooooo beyond jealous!!! I must convince my husband I need a tardis!!!!
That is so cool. My first thought, before I even read the post, was to think “what a great birthday present”. I love it when I’m right. Now you need a life size cardboard cutout of one of the Doctors to place next to it. I have one of Hue from Star Trek (TNG). I’m happy to loan it to you, though it may cause some confusion.
You should rent out your backyard for Travelling Red Dress photo shoots. You could donate the money for mental illness awareness, or something. I would totally sign up.

I now have a mental picture of archaeologists thousands of years from now unearthing your home and attempting to piece together our culture based on the contents.
Hopefully you will get your fully functional Tardis so that you can go forward in time and explain each artifact to the puzzled scientists. Or just go and confuse them even more!
Maybe we just need to put the entire Bloggess archive in a spaceship and shoot it into a very long elliptical orbit that will bring it back to Earth in a few thousand years to clear up any confusion.
You are my hero.
I heart you

That is simply marvelous. Also, it looks like better material than cardboard, so huzzah for that! I imagine anything sturdier than cardboard would also be too heavy to easily move around for photoshoots anyway.

Beyonce looks as if she is wondering where the Tardis might take her.
Speaking of Beyonce, her inception on your site is one of the funniest things I have ever read and each time I weep and pee my pants. So, tonight I am going to read it to my new boyfriend, and if he doesn’t laugh, he has not passed this round of testing and I will dump him.
Dang woman! If this is how enthusiastic you become about movies, I can’t wait to see what’s next. Tell me, what other classics have you not seen yet? This could be fun.
How about A Clockwork Orange?

YES. A loaded-bag-of drunken-cats kind of YES.
Every time I see Beyonce the giant metal chicken I laugh. I referenced it yesterday & since husband didn’t know what I was talking to I made him read the story with me. A few hours later we argue over something stupid and he says “at least it’s not towels” which effectively ended the argument with my laughing to hard to stop.
This is freaking amazing. All we have in our garden is a lifesized plastic snowman (which is kind of lame, because it’s Melbourne, so he’s just sitting in the middle of our half-dead lawn wondering why he hasn’t melted like a normal snowman). I wonder how much Amazon would charge to ship a cardboard TARDIS to Australia… *goes off to get Evil Plans notebook*

Please ask Victor not to add a Stone Angel. Because that would give me nightmares. And I can’t imagine what it would do to you.
I love that Beyonce seems a little amazed and slightly perturbed that the TARDIS has appeared in her territory.
My daughter got a sonic screwdriver (11th Doctor version) for Christmas but now she’s jealous that you have a Tardis.
Beyonce as the next companion, yes?
I’m envious of you. I got excited when I was opening my Christmas presents this year because I thought I’d gotten a life-sized cardboard TARDIS, but it was only a life-sized Tenth Doctor cutout. Not a bad runner-up though.
My god woman! You are my new hero! Where the hell have I been??? Will you be my new best friend? iIwill bow to you. Not that you need any servants, looks like you have thousands of those already. I’m just saying.
Now I want to buy a house, so that I can have a TARDIS in the backyard.
Here’s a link to one of the writer’s of Doctor Who and he is peeking out of the real deal TARDIS. The picture didn’t used to be so cropped, you used to see alot more the it… but I’m still jealous.

Ok, this has nothing to do with Tardis, but it is an incredible story of stolen rabbits (18 of them, and they are LIVING rabbits) that were dropped annonymously on the doorstep of a rabbit rights group (or something) and then they had to give the rabbits back and the rightful owner is the Portland Meat Collective. I couldn’t make this stuff up and if you don’t live in the Pacific Northwest this story has probably not reached you but it must be shared.

there’s a shop down the street from my that has Beyonce’s twin brother, Heyonce out in front. i think of you and B every time i drive by. i want to buy him, but i just know my husband would rather we buy groceries instead of giant metal roosters. i love them both and will wave at Heyonce when i drive by him. i also hope Beyonce doesn’t go into the TARDIS and disappear on you.

Sorry to continue my off topic topic, but my friend in Portland who happens to be connected to either the bunny rights group or the meat collective (I’m not sure which) needs to contact the good people at Portlandia because a “bunny rights activists vs. localvore cuniculturalists” (not my words) would make an awesome episode. It would also make an awesome tote bag. But mainly to people in Portland. No one else would get it. Unless it actually MAKES it onto Portlandia in which case it would also make sense to people who watch Portlandia. You might want to start designing the tote bag now. I’m pretty sure it’s the only way that Portlandia will pick up the story.

Her 12th birthday is this coming Thursday and it’s ALL Dr. Who themed. She’s having a Union Jack cake with a TARDIS (that makes the actual TARDIS noises), the 10th Dr. (her favorite), Rose Tyler, K-9, a couple of cybermen and an Ood. OK, she doesn’t know about all the characters, I won them on eBay and am surprising her with them on her cake. I can’t WAIT to see her face!

This post makes me so happy!
I saw a tardis on the side of the road while driving to my studio once, I thought at first I was mistaken but on further investigation and consultation with a friend it was really there. It was outside an old weigh bridge, where there is always a handpainted sign that advertises the sale of worms but there is never anyone there to buy worms from. I could see no reason (except that it was fantastic) that there should be a tardis parked outside this little building. Next time I drove by it was gone!
totally thought that was an outhouse and I got totally jealous.
Yeah, if only you had a real TARDIS or some other time machine. Or a way to edit text on the internet, text that you already wrote. Perhaps through the use of some kind of keyboard. You could use software called a “browser”. I hear Microsoft has something on the boilerplate, but keep up with me because this is future technology FROM THE FUTURE.
Which means you’d need a TARDIS to get to it.
Curses! Foiled again!
You do realize, of course, that now you’re going to have to buy a life size Matt Smith as Dr. Who cardboard cut out to go with your Tardis.
My husband and I own a bar. In it, we have a life sized Alice from Twilight cardboard cut out,because in my husband’s head, she’s his real wife. We also have a life sized Joe Jonas cut out, because in real life, Joe Jonas and Alice from Twilight dated and I thought my husband needed to be put in his place with a serious does of reality.
Somewhere along the way Joe Jonas ended up with a gas mask.
Alice from Twilight is wearing a bib from Joe’s Crab Shack and a Sponge Bob party hat.
I don’t know where the cardboard Tardis comes into play in this story, but I’m pretty sure a time machine is the next step…I just didn’t know it until now.
Thank you.

Cardboard… does this mean it may not survive if it ever rains again? Or is it like the kind of cardboard that holds up in that sort of weather? OR… can it time shift back to when there was no rain whenever it does rain, so it’ll never get wet? These are the big questions, people!

Yes! Only I want details, ’cause I have often looked at the life-size Tardis cardboard listing on ebay and thought and thought about it. Is it all four sides? Can you go inside? Is it really bigger on the inside? I have a dream of having my husband build me a Tardis potting shed (notice I say potting shed, it’s the Whovian anglophile in me). For right now though I have satisfied my Who-merchandise craving with an ALLONS-Y {} Decal on the minivan my aforementioned spouse made me get. For the third child that mysteriously joined our clan.
It joins the stick family decal I threatened to get if he made me get a minivan.
And the zoo and Children’s museum decals.

When I was a student, we had in our house a half-sized TARDIS that we’d made ourselves. We’d built it as marketing for a student society. The sign on the door had, below the main text, some small print reading: “If you’re reading this to check whether the model is accurate, you really need to join the society.”
I’m not sure what happened to the TARDIS when we graduated. None of us could bring ourselves to throw it away.

Great. Now I need a giant cardbaord Tardis.
I love you. WIth all of my heart. (In a non threatening I wish you were my real-life friend kind of way.)
You need to know this lady. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rtWUrJU46M8&feature=plcp&context=C34f2f92UDOEgsToPDskJUoK96MimM_zww6vSmHBpB
Wow. I now both simultaneously love you passionately and hate you passionately. Being as, the instant I showed my boyfriend-person the lovely vision that is Beyonce, he decided that he must have one, and also that I am currently crocheting a TARDIS for him (not full-size, but oh yes it will open and the inside will look bigger than the outside) … *sigh*
Yours in envy,
Abbye
*squeeeee!!!*
Bloggess,
If I were the Doctor,
I would totally choose you for my companion.

I was sitting here reading posts. I opened up the picture where you got cactus in your foot. My husband walked past me. Then he stopped, turned around, leaned over the computer and said “What the heck are you looking at? It looks like Dr. Who or something.” I said “What ARE you talking about???”
Then I closed the picture and read your PPPS.
heh

Our front door is blue and my fiance and I really want to paint it like the Tardis. However, we are renters and it is a metal door, so I don’t know if the owner of the house would be terribly pleased. If only I had a time machine to go back and NOT paint the door like the Tardis when we move out. Sigh.

I love you so much right now!
You’ve got a TARDIS in your backyard! <3
I am SO JEALOUS that you have a TARDIS! I have a USB hub that makes”the noise” when you plug something into it, and there’s a button that you can push to make “the noise” as well. I would stand behind my cardboard TARDIS, push the hub’s button, and giggle in nerdy self-satisfaction. That sounds dirty, and I so don’t mean it to be. Well, unless Matt Smith, David Tennant, or John Barrowman was with me behind the cardboard TARDIS. Hee hee… So glad you’ve discovered the awesomeness of Who. You’ll have to go back and start watching the older episodes. I’m partial to Patrick Troughton and Jon Pertwee.
Hey! You want to catch up on ALL the Dr, Who episodes??

SRS! EVERY. EPISODE. Hon, I’ve been watching it since 197-flappin’2 and this is GREAT. Daleks! Cybermen! MOAR!
A real Tardis is second on my list for my Birthday/Christmas present. Only second because first, is a real Dalek (preferably dead) I thought it would sit just behind the front door of our house, so when unwanted salespeople arrived I could use my son’s voice distorter and exterminate the intruders. Of course, a real Tardis would be much more useful, because I need the extra space as our house is way too small for growing teenagers and I need the extra room.
