So my birthday neither rocked nor sucked, which is in keeping with usual.

However, Eurosport gave me one of the greatest birthday presents ever. I finally got to see my favourite ice dance pair skate again.

Anjelica Krylova and Oleg Ovsyanikov

They still rock my world. They have to be the last successful ice dance pair who actually remember the word dance is in the description.

Of course, while they were competing the dance styles chosen for the compulsaries and the original were the ones they were suited to, rock and roll and the like, and then the minute they turn professional, they change to ones that they are good at like waltzing, but I'm so happy I don't even want to complain.

And I remember why I used to love seeing them skate, because they look like they love skating, not for the end result but sheer joy and exhilaration.

They're brilliant.

Just like the apologise for the loud shrieking

Sean Bean website is to blame. I think I just remembered why I can't ever say I'm a lesbian.

Teensy bit of background - basically, in the early 90s, if a Brit TV show wanted to invoke sex they used Sean Bean. The first things I saw him in (or clips of, dude, I so wasn't old enough for them) were Lady Chatterly's Lover as Mellors and Clarissa as Lovelace.

It's still an accepted thing Marks and Spencers used him in their Christmas ad, saying, "Strange men baring gifts". My German teacher, who knows about the squeaking, alerted me. There's something worrying there :)

So basically, everyone else grew up and got different people to squeak over (Leonardo Di Caprio and Orlando Bloom) but I never did.

This worries me somewhat. Not enough to stop me, but still.

I realise I will have to announce that I can't stand Sean Bean because he cut the Boromir scarecut.

For those of you wondering, that was a joke. If I were to take a sudden dislike of him I have way better reasons.

Does anyone know of a website builder where one can upload apostrophes. I ask only because Tripod isn't letting me.
