(no subject)

Just got home, put the tv on, flipped through channels and heard a familiar voice and I was like, Jensen Ackles' dubber! And yes, SV was on so I'm... well, no, I'm not watching Smallville, I'm watching Teh Ackles. Big difference! World of difference. Oh man, those eyes. Those lips! Dude, I'm totally straight for him *sigh*

Okay, moving on!

So hey apparently I'll be vacationing away from Choisy for a certain period of time very soon - for maybe a week, maybe ten days or maybe two weeks. The details are a bit sketchy still but I should be away, anyway, for at least a week. And I thought back to the last time I left for such a long time? It was six years ago - hey, time flies. So first stop should be near Royan at Family Friend's and then we'll be staying in Duras at my cousins' - maternal side of the family.

To give you an idea, look at this map - scroll down a bit, see Océan Atlantique? Look a bit on the right, there's Royan, we'll be staying near that city. As for the second location, look down a bit more, see Aquitaine? On the right is Lot et Garonne, that's here. Duras is a small village though so it's not indicated either.

Here ends your French geography class for the day *bows* And I promise it's the last time I do it!

Looking at the map - wouldn't it have been a lot of fun is the Winchestercon uk had actually been held in the city of Winchester? Talk about a sweet name for a city *g*

Changing the subject now; message to the French Posse, remember the site I linked to a couple of days ago, the one with all the anime themes? Man, I just realised they had several versions of the opening theme of Les Mystérieuses Cités d'Or - original title Taiyo no Ko Esteban - and one of them is in Breton! lol Les Mystérieuses Cités d'Or en Breton, totally cracks me up. Wanna compare? Here is the French version and here is the Breton one.

PS: Why do I love M6? Try to guess - tonight program is Numb3rs x2 then Nip/Tuck followed by Sex and the City and Scrubs and Queer as Folk UK \o/

PS2: Wait, but tonight is also La Nuit des Etoiles? Might have to reconsider my telly night, then, as The Esu and I might want to go out to look at the sky. We'll see whether it's worth it or not, ie if it's too cloudy we won't see anything, anyway. [ETA: Ou alors je me trompe d'évènement.]

PS3: Oh oh! First Prison Break preview on M6! Lincoln telling us his name and saying that he'll be dead in four weeks. Awesome!

On my drive from Kansas to New Jersey, I stopped in Winchester, Indiana. I didn't actually STOP there, but I walked around the downtown a little and went shopping (got some SEXY pants that I'll fit into eventually) and took a bunch of pictures, LOL.

Lol Man, I wish we had a Winchester town in France too, but I'm afraid it's just not gonna happen :-)

Dude. First, let me say that I love you for linking to that site, and especially to the Cites d'Or which is my favorite dessin animé ever. Second, let me say that I lovelove*love* you for linking to that Breton version. Gotta love the Bretons -- they get all the extremely bad weather instead of us, and they provide us with hours of endless amusement with stuff like this. ;)

Also, my hate for TF1 is strong, but I really can't get into Numb3rs, much as I wanted to get into another incest-y slashy show, so I'll have to stick to Koh Lanta tonight.

[identity profile] castalie.livejournal.com 2006-08-04 06:07 pm (UTC)(link)
You're very welcome; that site is... man, there's no words for how AWESOME it is *clings* And that Breton version rocks, doesn't it? lol It cracked me up. But it's so very cool, I mean... they have their very own version too.

Koh Lanta isn't so bad, I sometimes watch the repeat but, yeah, I love Numb3rs too much to miss it :-)

That's the kind of holiday that sounds good, when the time you're away just keep going up ;)

I love your tv schedule for tonight! Mine's Big Brother, which doesn't compare really *g*

[identity profile] castalie.livejournal.com 2006-08-04 07:18 pm (UTC)(link)
I decided to believe that I'll be away for a week, that way I can only be pleasantly surprised if it's longer :-)

Hmm no, can't say that Big Brother can compare but it's still fun, I guess. Are the participants doing outrageous things, as usual?

Nothing really bad this year. WHich is a shame. In fact the whole season has been pretty tame, the highlight being one of the evicted girls throwing a glass of water over one of the others as she was evicted. Which really, is lame.

[identity profile] sockich.livejournal.com 2006-08-04 06:37 pm (UTC)(link)
well, no, I'm not watching Smallville, I'm watching Teh Ackles. Big difference!

Uh-huh, completely different, right. :p

But seriously, I'm pretty sure people have watched much worse things for Teh Ackles, so you've got nothing to be ashamed about. *g*

So first stop should be near Royan at Family Friend's and then we'll be staying in Duras at my cousins' - maternal side of the family.

Sounds like fun and, considering it's been six years since you last did something like that, I'd say you more than deserve it.

huh, completely different, right. :p

Dude, I'd better not hear sarcasm in your voice!

unds like fun and, considering it's been six years since you last did something like that, I'd say you more than deserve it.

I kinda think so too, I guess *g* Thanks.

I understand! See, I just got myself a shiny copy of SV season 4, which I totally will watch some day, because despite his almost unattractively healthy and all-American look, Jensen! This is a show I haven't watched in three years, and I wasn't crazy about it even then, mind you.

[identity profile] castalie.livejournal.com 2006-08-04 07:20 pm (UTC)(link)
I understand!

I knew I could count on my flist to get it!

Tu sais que La Nuit des Etoiles, ça ne veut pas dire qu'il y a plus d'étoiles dans le ciel?
Non parce que quand j'ai vu ton post je suis allée sur Google, et en fait c'est une manifestation organisée indépendamment d'évènements stellaires... Le titre désigne l'organisation, pas ce qui se passe vraiment dans le ciel.

Et c'est bien bête parce que j'aurai bien aimé voir des étoiles moi ce soir :/

PS : Elle est comment la voix de Lincoln?

Sérieux ? Je croyais que c'était une nuit où on pouvait voir des étoiles filantes *pout*

PS: Tu vois la vois de John Doe ? Ils ont gardé la même.

Trop déçue! J'ai toujours cru que c'était une nuit où on avait plus de chances de voir des étoiles filantes! L'arnaque...

Here's the link to the official Winchester website:
http://www.winchester.gov.uk/

Did you know that Winchester is also the name of a rifle? Here's a website for the company:
http://www.winchesterguns.com/ Or there's also this one, which makes the ammo and has a history of the name http://www.winchester.com/ Sam & Dean may well own a gun that shares their name... [/geek]

Hey, thanks for the link!

I did, yes - I actually thought they were named after it when I got into the show. It would have been quite fitting, you know?

is numb3rs just back on? because i asked my sister to tape it for my last week and she said it wasn't on or something. but then again, i might have asked her too late. she was gonna send the tape with dominique on tuesday and i think i asked her on sunday or something.

I think it's been back since the World Cup ended? More or less... There're two episodes each Friday, though it's a mix between s1 and s2. I guess they're trying to make it last. Or it was like that last week...

Hee yes, Queer as Folk UK! *loves*

J'avoue qu'ils assurent m6 pour leur vendredi soir *squee*

La preview de prison break avait trop la classe ! Un bon tease pour les gens qui ne connaissent pas encore. Ce serait vraiment cool d'avoir le reste des persos (ou au moins Mike) au centre des autres !

[identity profile] castalie.livejournal.com 2006-08-07 07:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Bah mince alors, j'étais persuadée d'avoir déjà répondu à ce commentaires *est sénile*

Enfin oui, M6 assure vraiment, là. Ils me font un plaisir immense en ce moment :-)

Et pour PB, je sais pas combien de personnages on va voir mais là on a déjà eu Lincoln et Michael. Alors on peut espérer avoir le reste *fingers crossed* Je me souviens plus trop combien de perso ils avaient mis dans cette promo là...

Enjoy your holiday! And I used to love Mysterious Cities of Gold as a child ^_^!

Why, thank you, mate *g*

Enjoy your holiday! And I used to love Mysterious Cities of Gold as a child ^_^!
