Lost - kinda - and Other Stuff.

[castalie]

Had a pretty busy day: went to school, ran some errands - most of them school related - got some news - bad and good, and speaking of the good, congratulations again moimoietmoi! I received your text message and might have bounced after reading it *g* - and oh! I also watched the eclipse this morning - lovely :-)

On the fannish front: I finally watched Lost 2x02 and er, well, can't say I was impressed. I mean, you know how sometimes an episode works - admittedly regarding Lost it's kinda the norm - and sometimes it doesn't? That one didn't. I might have started tidying my room while watching it at one point, even *cough*

Two things though:

SHARKS! Sharks omg! I'm sharkophobic selachophobic. I'm not even kidding. Ever since as a wee!Mouse I disobeyed my mother's order not to watch Jaws by silently crawling under the table and secretly watching the movie, I've been dead afraid of sharks. So like, that wasn't cool at all *shudder* Actually, it's a good thing I've had people on the flist telling me about the tattoo on aforementioned shark because I wouldn't have ever known otherwise. I wasn't exactly watching - I mean SHARKS OMG! *hides*

Hey, was that a stuffed polar bear that Michael offered wee!Walt? Cool!

Yeah, that's all - I mean, I'm not saying nothing happened or anything, it just - I don't know, it didn't speak to me that much this time *shrug* Though wait, the last ten seconds or so? Ie the very last scene? Definitely woke me up - holy shit! Is it next week yet, is it? *bounces*

I'm now waiting for my Desperate Housewives download to complete - 95% woohoo. I'm quite impatient to watch because Richard Burgi is in that one. And I'm so very glad because apparently he'll come back several times throughout the season and you can't ever have too much RB :-)

Oh and another woohoo to the release of the Desperate Housewives DVDs in December! I know what I'll ask le Père Noël, yay! *starts her Christmas list*

Finally, Kaamelott Quote of the Day:

Karadoc et Perceval : *à Arthur*
On en a gros!

Which actually is kinda mean of me cause without the proper context and all - doesn't really mean a lot. But Henry and I have been saying that quote to each other all of yesterday and I couldn't resist.

ETA: 'tain, Alexandre Astier m'éclate même quand il est pas en Arthur! En parlant de Kaamelott: "J’aime casser les genoux aux préjugés historiques. Dans Kaamelott, Arthur est sans noblesse et sa quête est réduite à une formalité administrative et poussive. Kaamelott, ça aurait dû être Le Seigneur Des Anneaux, mais finalement bah... finalement, non." Trop fort lol

*giggles and joins you under the table*

Definitely a calm episode for me, too. I mean stuff happens, but the way we're only getting back at what went on before the end of the first part: frustrating.

Why didn't I understand then that Mothers Know Best? *shakes head*

I'm not the only one, then? Good to know. And yes, exactly, I was kinda frustrated to go backwards re:the hatch. I want to know what happened next, not before *feels antsy*

[moimoietmoi.livejournal.com]

OMG! I'm a sharkphobic too! And for the exact same reason! I watched Sharks while we were on holidays in Bretagne...

And thanks! *g*

Sharkphobic Unite!

And you're welcome *g*

Hmm. Hi. I know it must be weird getting a comment from someone knew, but I thought I'd say just how much fun sentinel_thurs is. *g* It's amazing. I've been going over the stories lately, catching up, and I just thought I'd drop by and thank you, and if you can, give my thanks to turps33. *nods*

Oh, and I thought I'd add that since the really old posts don't have their tags update yet, if you'd like, I could help out. I know probably tons of people ask to give you a hand, but I just thought I'd add my name to the list. *shrugs* That's it. Thanks. *g*

[castalie.livejournal.com]

Not so much weird as pretty nice, actually lol Hi *g*

Thank you so much for the great compliments! I'm really happy to hear you're having fun over there - that's what we wanted to accomplish, so thanks :-)

Also, we didn't exactly think of tagging the old posts because they're all on the archive (http://www.livejournal.com/userinfo.bml?user=sentinel_thurs). Should we decide to tag them at the comm too, though, I'll remember your offer, thanks a lot!

I was thinking about you when I was reading about Lost, bad Mouse scaring sharks!

[castalie.livejournal.com]

I knew I could count on you! Make them stop! *hides behind your back*

[yami-tai.livejournal.com]

Sorry, hun, I didn't realise that you were scared of sharks! I have another girl on my f-list who suffers from selachophobia, so I have warned her about that episode, as she is watching Lost on UK television and is way behind.

I love sharks, personally ^_^!

[castalie.livejournal.com]

Selachophobia? Dude, I didn't even know that word, thanks! Certainly has a smarter ring than my sharkophobia :-)

And okay technically I'm not globally selachophobic - I'm just afraid of the er, alright I don't know the English word, I'm afraid of the "grand blanc", ie the shark we see in Jaws and admittedly in pretty much every single movie that involves killing sharks. But those ones? I just can't! It's 100% irrational as I know that they usually don't even attack humans - though I don't think I could swim in Australia or South Africa or - well, I kinda can't swim if I can't touch the ground with my feet, actually so yeah *cough* I know I'm likely to never ever even see the tail of one in my whole life, but I don't care, I'm still afraid.

And even though I knew there would be some involved in that episode, I didn't know to what extent we would see them and I kept waiting and waiting to see them attack which mens that I might have missed some scenes because I wasn't really looking.

You freak!

[yami-tai.livejournal.com]

I'm afraid of the "grand blanc"

We call it the same... Great White ^_^! And I think that a lot of people are scared of this species because as you say, they are always the baddies in films. Nous avons de grands requins manger du plancton dans l'Ile de Man. Serais-tu effrayé d'eux? <- not sure about that bit!

I know ^_^!

[castalie.livejournal.com]

Requins mangeur de plancton? Hmm je sais pas trop - je pense que je serais pas trop rassurée mais ça pourrait peut-être passer :-)

Serais-tu effrayé d'eux? <- not sure about that bit

It would be more like: Serais-tu effrayée par eux? Et en français courant, on aurait plutôt tendance à dire: "En aurais tu peur?" ou "Tu en aurais peur?" :-)

[yami-tai.livejournal.com]

J'aime "Tu en aurais peur?" meilleur. Thanks for your help, I appreciate it *kisses*!

My big problem is that I think of what I want to say in English and then translate it into French, which doesn't always work, I know... but I'm working on it ^_~!

[castalie.livejournal.com]

Me tente pas! Communauté ou autre... ça le ferait trop quand même lol Mais bon...

[castalie.livejournal.com]

Dans l'absolu, j'en aurais envie, c'est clair lol Mais je pense que pour le moment, je vais garder mon Kaamelott rambling just pour mon LJ. Ah ma flist... c'est une bande de veinards! *snicker*

[castalie.livejournal.com]

Tiens bah y a deux personnes de plus par rapport à la dernière fois - faut croire que Kaamelott fait des émules :-)

Et sérieux? Si tu cèdes à la tentation, je deviens membre de la communauté tout de suite *g*

[castalie.livejournal.com]

J'ai déjà une communauté - je sais comment ça fonctionne mais bon, si c'est pour qu'il y ait dix pelerins. En même temps, si c'est intime, pourquoi pas? lol

Je sais pas trop, franchement. D'autant que j'ai déjà trois - ou quatre - fans de la série dans ma propre flist. Sachant qu'il y a douze utilisateurs qui ont mis la série dans leur liste d'intérêts, j'ai déjà un bon ratio sur mon propre LJ :-) C'est clair qu'on peut créer une communauté même sans beaucoup de membres - et parfois le fait qu'une comm existe incite d'autres à la rejoindre même s'ils n'y pensaient pas au début - mais est-ce-que ça vaut le coup ici? C'est la grande question.

[castalie.livejournal.com]

Si ça peut adoucir les chose un piti' peu, j'ai prévu une entrée avec le transcript de l'épisode "La Fête de l'Hiver" - l'entrée est toute prête à vrai dire - et je pense que je la posterais demain. Et j'ai aussi l'intention de poster le transcript du "Jeu de Caillou" après ça. C'est peut-être moins pratique mais bon, c'est mieux que rien?

Ca fait cinq jours que j'ai pas cité la série, ça fait un peu beaucoup là!

[castalie.livejournal.com]

Moi j'ai le coffret du Livre I, alors ça aide. Par contre, j'ai raté pratiquement tous les épisodes de cette semaine et ça - c'est horrible! Je vais essayer de voir le récap demain, mais je sais pas trop si je pourrais.

Hey, puisque tu dors pas de toute façon - autant faire quelque chose de plus constructifs, encore? *sends vibes your way* Je pense qu'il devrait y avoir au moins deux personnes qui feront une entrée "icones" - et ça, c'est toujours cool. Et pi moi j'ai les transcripts et tout. Et normalement, l'équipe de la série va faire une séance de dédicace à Lyon et Paris en novembre-décembre, donc il y aura même des news à poster! Si c'est pas beau, ça?

Tant mieux *smooch back*

[castalie.livejournal.com]

YEAH! Quand j'ai vu que tu tardais à répondre à mon dernier commentaire je me suis, de deux choses l'une. Ou elle est allée dormir ou elle est en train de bosser sur la communauté. Donc je suis allée faire un tour sur ta page d'info et woohoo! Y avait bien une nouvelle communauté citée - donc j'en suis devenue membre sans attendre, tu penses.

Et c'est de ma faute, pas de problème lol

I've granted you unmoderated access if you wanna post something because I'm exhausted right now and have to get up in... 4 hours. yay!

Seriously? How sweet! Okay then, I'll go and post something now :-)

Merci encore! Et dors bien!
