Give me space!!! And Bean there, done that...

Okay, now I've got your attention! If you didn't know, this guy is Sean Bean--who has a somewhat tenuous literary connection. I mean, he has acted in many movies based on books, after all! The Lord of the Rings series, Lady Chatterley, Patriot Games, Anna Karenina, and of course, Cornwell's Sharpe series. Which is where I found him, courtesy of my husband who, after listening to many of the books on audio, asked me to request the movies for him. I'm not quite sure he realized what he was starting. But...golly jeepers...what can I say? I'm an old married lady so hubby should feel quite safe in allowing me to ogle the guy.

And here he is...

So you can ogle him too. (And his baby--or at least someone's baby!)

Anyway--the real topic of this is a celebratory posting because I'm done (done, done, done!!!!) with creating the 8N08 exercises.

The last one is on social networking sites and I really struggled with it because I just don't get it. I mean, I do get the attraction for many people. It just doesn't work for me. Don't want people to know what I'm doing all the time and don't want to know what you're doing either. Not that I don't care about people. I just don't want to know. Despite this, I understand that it's just a different way of communicating and connecting with people. It's just not for me (says the person who has just blogged about her newly discovered fascination for Sean Bean! ). So, staff get to explore myspace, tour Shelfari, and create a profile on one of them or their choice of facebook or linked in.

As for me, I'll be the one doing the little celebratory dance in my office because I've finally completed the exercises. And, oh yeah, discovered Sean Bean to drool over.

Oh, Kym. Lovely picture of Sean- so glad you've discovered him. Have you ever seen the vicar of dibley? The vicar( dawn french) has a picture of Sean Bean right next to Jesus Christ on her wall, to aid her in her 'finding a man' pursuit. So it's good to know he could be good for other things besides oogling- though who really needs more anyway:)
Lovely Post.
Good Luck with all you going's on over the next weeks.
