And He Casually Crawls Out the Door...

We got a small table tennis table this Christmas, so adding that to the fact that our garage flooded with all the rain, 'The Room ' (our dining room that we don't use for eating and stuff) is slightly full at the moment. For some reason, there's an old footstool in there, too, which is usually under the table, but this morning I was sitting on it, so it was between the table and a chest of drawers, in the way of anyone trying to get out of the room from the other side of the table.:) The Doctor was on that side of the table, and wanted to get past. It was awkward for me to find my way out of that strange spot, and he had already tried to climb over me earlier, almost falling while holding two bowls of porridge, and then making the joke 'Never try to do a high-step over someone's knees [I had lifted them to try and make it easier for him, but it made it worse:P] while holding two bowls of porridge. You have two choices: drop the porridge, or fall on the porridge.' Then he said 'I probably would've done both at the same time.' Anyway, in avoidance of doing it again, he got down on his hands and knees, and crawled under the table! It was quite funny, but understandable, I guess. The really odd thing was, he didn't get up after he came out from under it! He crawled off to the door, and I began to wonder if he'd hurt his back or something, so as he was leaving the room, I asked why he was crawling, and he said, 'Because it's a nice way to travel.' or something as strange. Then, after a pause (although he carried on crawling), he said 'I'll be getting up soon... when I realize how un-progressive it is.' I finally realized he hadn't noticed he was doing anything strange! I guess it's part of the way he treats odd things so lightly. It reminded me of 'Terror of the Zygons', when Benton finds the Doctor and Sarah unconscious, and the Doctor wakes up and whispers 'It worked!' and Benton whispers back, 'What worked?' so the Doctor says something about a trick he learned from a Tibetan monk, and Benton answers with something else, still whispering. Then the Doctor says 'Why are you whispering?' as if benton was the one to start it!
