castalieI've just (finally?) discovered Sanctuary tonight. I knew the show, I mean, but I'd never watched it when it aired on-line. And now it made it to French!tv (either in French or in English, yay!) so I gave it a try. I enjoyed it. It's not going to become a favourite, but it was fine. I liked the aesthetics of the show, some of the scenes looked like they were taken from a fairy tales sometimes (or maybe it was just that one episode; in that case, too bad). I don't know what technique that is, exactly, but I like it better than some of the more OTT in your face kind of F/X.
Today was back-to-school for all my co-workers and first day of school for New Boss. Boss Man was there too so it was like having two kings in our kingdom. Though it worked well, and New Boss made a good second impression. We'll see how it goes in the long run but at least none of us hated him on sight, quite the contrary. It bodes well.
Something that might not bode well, now, is the N1H1 flu talks. I don't know about where you work but here, at the university, TPTB are all about it. I think no-one is going to want to kiss anyone else goodbye or hello anymore. Co-workers were joking about how the kisses that were exchanged this morning would be the last till Teh Flu was gone 4ever. That is, till next time.
Talk about cultural frustration! French people not being able to kiss hello/goodbye for fear of catching the flu omg! Forget about those other means of contamination, that one, right there, is the more traumatising one!
Ok, something even more traumatising, now? Gmail is down atm! Why, gmail, why? Don't you know I need you like I need air? Come back to me *wails*

Date: 2009-09-05 05:31 pm (UTC)I'll admit I'd love to hear you talk about it, seeing that you're in the medical field, because we hear about it so much around here and I can't help but wonder what's the truth in all the stuff we hear.
