Well I got up, "fine and Dandy, like sour candy". hahaha. Got ready for my next and last Pride Event for the year or as I call it, the "Closing Ceremony". Technically the event I went to is called Ceremony of Love & Remembrance. A Poignant moment of celebration of those that have lived and those that have gone before us. I was met up by Laurence(who was standing up for me in the debacle of my regout yesterday) and Searson. Twas great to see em all. So the three of us, Searson, Laurence and I, headed on to roam around the town. heheeheh.
We first went through Trinity Park. Apparently, Trinity College, has a park a Cricket Park. Wow, never knew that. While there, I was trying to make out what was written on a newish type building. Moyne Institute of ... As I later learned it was actually "Moyne Institute of Science" and even more so its the back of the Science Gallery builidng thats on Pearse. Wow what you learn. Just unreal. We were relaxing on the Park Bench when we were seeing gay couples of both genders ie two males n females when then brought on the the topical discussion of same sex embracing in public. So Searson asks if we can't kiss or hold hands in public in the Outhouse, or in Trinity Park where we say the gay couples, Laurence replies, just think of the Outhouse as a public place. Simple analygos yet, poignant. Then Laurence made a point relating to if a couple were making out in front of you, they'd ask why u looking at us, you'd say well its like in my face. So I proceeded to say "Socialite's Poisonous". It was my point yesterday at Pride, that you can be who or whatever you want to be. If u want to dress up as a girl, then do so, or to dress up as a porn star, then do so, or to even just march in ur Undies, then by all means. Some year, I will be doing so. My mother even thought I had nothing on me, ie in the nip yesterday, BUT just the flag. I learned of this when I popped up to my folks later on in the day well evening. Then we continued on into the courtyard where I recalled a Fine Gael event I was at with O' Farrell a few years(I wasn't out at the time). Mariead McGuinness was giving some talk relating to Agriculture or something. If I recall, it was to do with the General Election of 2007 of which If I can recall, Fine Gael did very poorly. I may be wrong. While roaming around, I was seeing what I thought was an "Inflatable". Heck, I even took a few pics of it. However as me glasses are broken or whatever, I couldn't see toooo well. When I got closer it was just literally a board. The curses that came outta me. I mean like, wtf. hahahah. What a laugh thou.
While continuing to wander around the grounds, I recalled Bernard's quote from yesterday, that I nearly did my back out again with the stitches of laughter. Quote being "Public Eye". He was saying this as my friend from yesterday was ashamed of being around me with my regout. Hence says this kinda thing. heeheh.
So then Searson went off home. He dispersed from Dame St. Both Laurence and I headed on around. I got a bit of a history lesson. Twas amazing. WE went down by the Hirschfeld Building as shown in A Pride To Remember. It was amazing. They had kept the front of it. But the back of it, was demolished. He told me of 3 Gay areas: Outhouse, Foam, South William St., So his last word before we departed each other. "We met on a Historical event: A Pride to Remember, and ended on an History Lesson".
So then after leaving him, I headed on up towards the folks. I then only recalled on the way up to my folks that when my Mom was advising me of my safety relating to a tshirt of the Civil Partnership and/or the "Smile If You're Gay" last week. She said it's arlite for Pride. It's YOUR day. Mom totally enjoyed the Pride Parade yesterday along with her sis Maureen(Nun). She described it as "Feeling of Youth, Exuberance". Such lovely adjectives alrite. Had a bit of grub. Then headed on home after a bit.
Shortly before I went to bed, I rang UPC to try and transfer the funds over from the UPC account back to my Bank Account, as I need the cash to pay my rent. However, I wasn't ready for what was to happen next. They said I'd have to wait for 7 WORKING Days. However I still need to pay last week's rent and obv this week's. So Ill have to get the cash from Credit Union. Ill work on that on Tuesday.

Diary 30th June 2014
Well after a struggling getting up, I eventually got up. I was to meet Mom to go and get a bit of Tint on my glasses, the old ones, so to make the glasses that look like Sunglasses.. heeheh, considering the great weather we're having. WE were told that it'd be a few days before they are ready. Mom was a bit apprehensive because of the darkness. However all was resolved and left. hahhaa. So Mom treated me to the nearby restaurant, which it only opened recently. Absolutely lovely it is. I enjoyed my time with Mom. I have been getting great with Mom of late. heehhe. I told her about the Inflatables incident yesterday in Trinity College when I thought a cardboard sign for a cafe, I mistakened to be an Inflatable. She was most shocked about it. I took it as a harmless mixup. But she took it serious. In that she thinks my Inflatables are having a negative effect on me. She explained that as I've had them for more than a few months, that I will start "seeing" Inflatables on signs etc., I was litterly speechless. So she advised that I deblow them down. I can't or as Aaron Paul Johnson in Godzilla says: "I can't, I can't" do that to me babes. They's so precious. So afterwards, Mom dropped me off at my sis.
We were chatting and chatting as per normal etc., haha. Looking at TV. WE had a nice topical discussion relating to the recent events of the homophobia and pride etc., I have been thinking of collaborating both my gay lifestyle with family. HOWEVER, it will be on a very slow process. I then headed off. And shortly before I left to head on home, I exclaimed that I cannot remember the last time, I left her place around midnight. She has been seeing her boyfriend, and hence, she goes to his place slightly early.

Diary 28th June 2014 - Dublin Gay Pride 2014
So well I got up with a great buzz no tiredness or nothing. Considering about 3 or 4 hours sleep. I was buzzed and ecstatic. So I headed on towards the Annual Dublin Pride Parade 2014. On the way, a man says "WHAT THE FUCK" nearly crashing his bike. I found it hilarious. And took it with a grain of salt. He did ask me if I was gay. I then was looking for to represent the Outhouse. Eventually I found em. I was told they are on a bus. SO I found the bus. And was abruptly told a "White Lie" in that the person(whom is a senior member of the Staff - who shall remain nameless) had said only for Staff and Volunteers. I was deeply hurt as when I saw Gean up there on the bus(which to the best of my knowledge ain't a volunteer). I knew it was a white lie. So then I headed to see O' Farrell. He brought along his date and he was representing the Fine Gael LGBT Party. He didn't like my regout either. The regout I had, was a very tight Rainbow Tank Top and a very very short shorts(Guys who wear em for running) and of course my Pride Flag. Now with O' Farrell, I can take exception as he's with a Date, and the Party. So I left him be. So long story short, I joined with a group I never heard of Arklow LGBT. The organiser of Arklow LGBT asked "who's this guy" something like that. However, one of the members being Dave Doran(of which I had met through Gay Dining Out Meetup at Millstone Restaurant). Twas wonderful to see a familiar face and of course an ACCEPTANCE face. I felt like I was the Black Sheep or in fact, I feel like the Black Sheep in the LGBT Community. I had tears in my eyes when my own LGBT Community Center has saved me on numerous occasions from taking my own like, when they denied one of their own ie Black Sheep or Prodigal Son. So after that, Pride commenced in Earnest with my new found group - hahaha. Then shortly before the Parade turned down the Quays, I saw my Aunty(Nun) and my Mom. I was so happy and gleamed. It really lifted my spirits. I was ecstatic. So the Parade continued. The Parade had changed its route due to the ongoing Luas Works that is to connect BOTH Luas together. The Parade's route would normally be:
Parnell Sq - O' COnnell St - D'Olier St - College Green - Nassau St - Clare St - Merrion Sq - Pride Afterparty
The New Route for the time being is as follows:
Parnell Sq., - O' Connell St., - Eden Quay - Custom House Quay - Butt Bridge - City Quay - Lombard St - Westmoreland St - Lincoln Place - Merrion Sq - Pride Afterparty.
So then after the parade. There were lovely speeches made by:
Miss Panti
LGBT Noise
Marriage Equialtiy
TENI - Transgender Equailtiy Network Ireland
BeLongTo
Veda
Few singers for out entertainment were also provided. We were treated to a BeLongTo person singing. And The Voice of Ireland Winner(Gay version from the Dublin Pride Events) and an xFactor style. He was fantastic. He sang the Rise of A Phoenix by Conchita Wurst(Winner of the Eurovision Song Contest 2014).
However with the whole, Parade Afterparty, I was most disappointed with. While I can appreciate they were trying to combat the Alcoholism at a public event they should have had a few stalls to advertise products and services and FOOD. They were not one bit of a stall to be seen. Now I had been notified via The GCN in advanced. Then after the Parade Afterparty, I then headed onto towards the Outhouse then onto the Cinema. I was to meet Mark from Ardee, however I had told him previously not to bother meeting me. I since then had a change of heart. I texted him this morning. However didn't get a reply so assumed it was a wrong number and hence got a new number or something. I attempted to send him a message on FB but the phone went - Battery wise. So after failing to meetup with him, I headed on towards the Outhouse. Just while waiting to cross the Quays to go into Parliament St., There were a few lads and lassies, about to do something(not sure quite what it was to be - probably pantsied me or something - again I ain't not know). So I just crossed the street backwards and forwards when I saw Bear Fest. It was fantastic. Wowie. I just passed by it btw. hahaha. Then I eventually arrived at the Outhouse with a view of whats the craic. As I had compeltedly forgotten all about the Outhouse end of the Party. So I just had a pokie in. heeheh. Again nothing knew, my regout was completed on both sides of the arguments. My friend(which for interest sake and privacy reasons shall remain nameless for the duration of this blog post. ) has asked me to apologies to the Outhouse formally for dressing up the way I did to represent the Outhouse. I told him, I have done NO WRONG, and hence will not be doing such thing. It would be different, if I had done, BUT I DIDN'T.
So then I headed onto the Cineworld to see my farewells to my Son Godzilla. Review here. Twas wonderful. NOT ONE REMARK OR LOOK was made at me in Cineworld. Maybe behind my back(Don't care), So after the film, I headed on back to the Outhouse. They were officially suppose to close at 8. But with the "Tis the Season" hahaha. I was chatting to a few people. I saw a good friend of mine Searson. Declan, Bernard, John(A new guy) and Jim. Jim and a the guy from Cork who is a Bear(a gay term for a gay man who is very hairy - something to that affect) whom I met last year at last year's Pride. John is an older Gentlemen, gave me a history lesson. In that Back in the days before the Outhouse existed well in its current building anyways - hahaha, There was a Print Publisher. Of which would you believe it, John was a staff member. Twas amazing. We were also chatting about the Rebel song "Wrap The Green Flag Round". Then the 1100th yr old city, the oldest city in the country Waterford City. He also distinguished between Regenald Tower and a skinny tower(of which I've forgotten the name). Regenald is the big fat tower in Waterford City while the skinny one is in Ardmore.(Ahh many happy memories down there). John also pointed out that the Outhouse building was a Tennancy building in which families paid rent in the good old days. Then I was chatting to Laurence my friend and Bernard. You could say at times was heated, but more so comedic. I was splitting my sides laughing. I even suggested that he stop, cause I was getting side pains and back pains(particular the one that forced me to A+E). There was a debate regarding my regout. I apparently was the talk of the town. Laurence asked my friend if he was ashamed of being around me with my regout. He struggled in saying that he is. When I get to the States, I'd say they'll be less shy or whatever the hell's wrong with them. I would expect such abuse etc., from the straight counterparts(well those against Gay Marriage) BUT from the freakin' LGBT Counterparts. If we're gonna win this Referendum, WE HAVE TO PULL UP OUR SOCKS AND PULL TOGETHER. Like there's one who's against this idea of sexual portrayal in society etc., My attitude was still the same. DON'T CARE. Bernard's argument, was very simple in that fear for the other members of the Outhouse Community. Which I can totally understand. So its understandable. SO as such, I will NOT be representing the Outhouse in next year's Pride. My friend's argument was very simple "Fear of being beaten up" which sadly is the case these days for being gay. Then there was the case of Laurence. His argument is: DIVERSITY. Its all I ever was doing. Just embracing my sexuality and my diversity. I don't give a "flying Monkeys" - as me Aunty(Nun) would say. I of course forgot to mention Declan. I was with him too. His attitude throughout the time I was there. "Don't Bendover." Was very amusing. hahaha. I totally had a great time at the Outhouse, despite the recent "talk of the town". My whole attitude throughout the day, was very simple: Don't Give a hootie of what anyone thinks of me. AND KEEP MY MOUTH SHUT. And by jasuzi throughout the whole day, that certainly worked a chore. As me ma would say, "Don't react". Its what they want. My friend was so worried that he went OTT in saying that I may be Gangbanged. Declan kinda thought it was a bit OTT. Which I kinda agreed. alrite. So then both my friend and I headed on our separate paths. But before we dispersed, I bumped into Niall in which I told him of the Pride Afters. So then I headed on home. Shortly before I headed home, I pointed out to my friend, a guy who's wearing a leather kinda of kilt. And a TSHIRT get this MANHUNT. Now thats a site for a man who wants to have sex with a man.
With all the walking I did, and with the sandles I was wearing and constantly was in aching pain on top the foot. On the way, a lady saw that I was limping. She was on a bicycle and offered me a "a lift". I thought it was suggestive as in sexual or whatever. Perhaps she was bing genuine. Anyways, I told to go straight and go straight and then right. I was playing dumb. Dunno why to be honest.
An ass of a Taxi driver beeps. Thinking it was to do with another car. I ignore. Then I hear "Assbandit"

Diary 27th June 2014
After my hibernation, I have been looking at TV and reflecting on the wonderful dreams. Of both sad and happy. No Dreams are too big and No Dreams are too small. Thats what I say. While showering, I had thoughts of telling the Outhouse(with a pic) to NOT let in Eileen as she's very homophobic. They can let in my Aunty Maureen(Nun) and Colette(as I haven't received any homophobic material from her - Not to my knowledge - Her son Gerry thou had said to my Pops that I was hanging out with a Punk Rocker type person)
So after a few TV Shows, I headed on off to see the most anticipated film of the year - hahaha, Mrs. Brown's Boys D' Movie. Review here. Then afterwards, I decided to head to the Outhouse to see if anyone was around. I spoke to Lawrence briefly. Lovely to see him. I then headed onto the Library where the Men's Night was taking place as per usual. I saw that O' Farrell was there and invited him along. While waiting for him to collect his stuff one of the members: "Con" asked me about Cum when I said to Brendan if he was COMING. However Con said cuming. I knew exactly what I was saying, yet he took it up sexually. hahah. Then he went to ask me If I Masturbated or something like that. I replied don't ya think that's personal. As Brendan says if you know the person well, only do you tell people you know that you tell em of your sexual activity etc., So then I headed off with O' Farrell to my next film, How to Train your Dragon 2. I was to see it with a Meetup Group: Best Buddies. However I didn't see any of em, at the cinema. It was then found that I hadn't RSVPed in time or perhaps I said I wasn't going. I don't know. As I was late for the film in question, whats new - hahaha. I shall provide a review in due course.
So after the movie, both O' Farrelll and I dispersed. I headed on home, and got myself two takeaways. New Victoria and Tasty Hut. While New Victoria was scrumptioulicious. Tasty Hut was literally crap. Crappy Food came with Crappy Service. hahaha.

Mrs. Brown's Boys D'Movie
Well if you were looking for comedy. Comedy is certainly what you got. Twas most heartwarming. The plot was very simple. Whereby a cruel politician(might I add) is in crooks with a group of Russians and wants to take down all the stalls in Moore St., There were some very poignant moments however, when it was revealed that Agnes(Brendan O' Carroll) had to give up her 6 children: Mark, Dermot, Rory(Cowan), Cathy(Jennifer Gibney), & Trevor and put em all in care as she couldn't afford them when her hubbie Redser Brown had passed on. Another poignant moment was when Both Cathy and Mrs. Brown herself gave a lovely speech in the courtroom in which Cathy pointed out "It doesn't matter you are, you will be welcomed on Moore St., So how she won the trial was when her Grandma or someone back in time, was paying her Tax Bill back in the day, she was provided with BOTH Braille and Non-Braille version. As Buster and the clan lost the Non-Braille version. They had to make do with Braille. In the court they had to ask if a person knew Braille. They all turned to Guideye(The guy who plays Blind in an episode of Mr.s Brown) and he says "How the fuck should I know". hahah. Twas priceless. If you were looking for Guest Stars, you were not left without surprises. Shane Byrne(Former Rugy Ireland International), Joe Duffy(Radio presenter of RTE's Liveline), Ciara O' Callaghan(Irish Actress of Fair City - what a shocker that was. hahah)

Diary 26th June 2014
I headed to sleep shortly. I was due to go out with Searson. However as I didn't get any notification or message I just stayed on. I had set my alarm on my Poddy. However I had failed to get up in time as I had forgotten to enable the sound.
Dreams started on a sad note whereby mom has passed on. I of course broke down. I'm told mom has passed on in an insensitive manner. I say no she's not use denial etc. The sis asks me why i don't get on with dad

Diary 25th June 2014
Well today's plan was to go to the next Pride Event: How To Win A Referendum in the Civic Office, Dublin City Council, Wood Quay entry, I think. I asked exactly where would it be held, but no one knew. In the meantime, O' Farrell contacted me to ask if I'd like to join him to see 3 Days TO Kill(Review here). I said firstly what about his date(which I later learned was rescheduled) and secondly err what about the Talk/Debate. His attitude was, "Well I'll tell you how to win the referendum". So I said that I'll pop round to both the Debate and then onto him, in the Outhouse and then to the Cineworld to see the film. So I set about heading off.
When I arrived at the O' Connell St.,/Parnell St junction, I was heading towards Parnell St where the Outhouse is. Says I to meself, ain't I spoz to be going to the talk, in which I turn onto O' Connell St., So onwards down O' Connell St. Low and behold, when I arrived at the Savoy Cineama(where world premiers' or Dublin at least film premieres are held), I encountered Mrs. Brown's Boys: D'Movie. I was so excited and ecstatic . I had understood the premier is tomorrow(26th) and the film release is Fri (27th). I took quite a lot of pics. I saw Sharon(Mrs. McGoogan's(Eilish O' Carroll)'s onscreen daughter), Trevor(Mrs. Brown's(Brendan O' Carroll)'s Son(Priest - or as Granddad would say, "Which one is he?" Mrs. Brown replies> "The Nun"), Brendan Grace(Twas sad thou seeing him on a walking stick :(, June Rogers(My memorable quote:: "Who do you think you are, Patricia McKenna(Whom she's a politician. I think she's retired now thou), Maria(Dermot Brown's(Mr.s Brown's son) wife), Deano & Rory(twas lovely seeing him again - The last time I saw him was when they were doing a film shooting scene at the Department of Local Government and Environment), Granddad, & his Wife in real life. It was unfortunate thou, that I had missed The main character or star of the show, Mrs. Brown herself(Brendan O' Carroll) and his wife Jennifer Gibney.
So then after the excitement of seeing the cast again, hahaha, I then went on to meet O' Farrell in the Outhouse. Met Patrick. Says old fogie. I reply ur never too old. So he says "naughty 10 yr old". hahaha. We didn't stay at all as the film was starting soon. So onwards towards the cineama. So then after the cinema, I Questioned Brendan RE: Rape sign I saw yesterday coming home from my sis. Possibly in context. He has a point, I just wish they actually specified Rape Seed Oil.

I asked him is it homophobic if someone's person says to you, that they don't like you cause you're gay, and that if ones gf does not like me cause I'm gay cause the boyfriend wants sex with me. Automatically yes.
ON the way home, I was really touched seeing a group helping the homeless. The group didn't even accept ones help ie donation. So they gave the money to the homeless person.
While on my way home, I was listening to the song/track: "Sing - The Commonwealth Band feat. Gary Barlow. "
It was spectacular. I was bothered by what my friend Aaron from my primary school had said, that his gf don't like me cause I'm gay, cause she's afraid that she's gonna loose him. As Brendan says, "Protective" of him. So this song helped me a great deal.
Here's the lyrics to part of the song. I think its so fitting.
"Some words they can't b spoken and only sang.
There's a place there's a time in this life when you sing what your are feeling
Find your feet stand your ground
Don't you see right now the world is listening...
JUST SING"
Music at the end of the day is my life. On the topic of day, I decided to wait til 8 when LIdls opens to get a few stuff there. On the way, I was advised by the Gardaí(Irish Police Force), to move along, he even touched me cause I was standing still. There was a confrontation or something going on. They were trying to get a bolster to break down the door. When I arrived at Lidls, I was told that the Inflatable Beach Ball, which I wanted, was not there and that they didn't have it on sale. Which I found so weird. I'm just after looking up the site, I misread it. It was just a picture. I thought they were selling it.

3 Days To Kill
Erm what can I say about this film. Twas quite endearing to a certain point. From what I could gather, Ethan(Costner) is dieying of some form of cancer(Brain, I think). He only has 3 months to live. Now the title of the film, was simple. He has been given an assignment of killing a guy within 3 Days by the Assignieee Vivi(Heard). However family matters complexes things. He left the wife(Christine - played by Nielsen) some years ago, due to work reasons at the time. So he wants to try and reconnect with the now 17 or 18 yr old daughter(Zooey - played by Steinfeld) who by the way has a very cute boyfriend Hugh(Bloquet). It is found that Hugh's folk's(in particular the father(Wynne-James)), the father's partner is Wolf(Sammel), the guy that Ethan is running after to complete his assignment. Overall, an OK movie. Its not gonna be a movie, I shall be seeing more than once.

Diary 24th June 2014
Well I was slightly groggy, nothing major to shout about as one would say. I was to be up for Mom as she was collecting me to get my dosh ie Dole, but more importantly to get my documentation for the Citizenship. It is required that I produce 3 Proof of Residence for the years of 2007, 2008, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014. Hence 15 Proof of Residency to be printed off. Mom collected me, headed to Dole. I then headed first before the Post Office to the Clean Freaks to get my laundry done. Then I headed into the Post Office. Then to the Bank to lodge my money into the Bills account, as I like to call it. heheheh So we continued onto the house. As it happens, as it was lovely and nice day, Dad was doing the Hedge. So instead of the above of which mom was disappointed, the above being Citizenship documents, I helped out with dad. Collected the trimmings etc., WE took a break. Sat for a few minutes. He was telling me, that his and Mom's Medical Card are being reviewed and maybe taken away off them. Initially the Threshold was 1400 per week, then it was brought down to 1200 and now as Dad puts it: "Noonan"(Current Minister of Finance TD(Fine Gael) has brought it down to 900 per week. SO if you earn including Pensions, Savings etc., over 900 a week, you are NOT entitled to a medical card. I asked if it would impact on his finances or whatever. He said no. But the distress is a big deal.
So then we continued. WE did mulching. etc., While mulching, we came across Lillys that he had cut down initially before I arrived. When he was mulching the lily's, it became so watery. Normally when the greenery or whatever is mulched, it stays dry and just gets shredded. However with the lilys, it became like as I described it as "Guacamole". I actually became a bit queasy as it was so watery like as if it were shit etc., Even picking it up. I know its just a flower, but imagine out of a flower, to become "Guacamole" kinda consistency....So then we settled down to dinner. At dinner, we were discussing various topics. One such topic being the Older methods of testing a patients Diabetes Sugar intake. As Dad puts it "Ain't this a delightful convo". It was described that in the olden days, Doctors used to have to put their index or some finger into Urine and taste it. If it was sweet in taste, they had diabetes etc., I then invited them along to the Dublin Gay Pride Parade. hehe. Hopefully they'll turn up somewhere along the route.
So after dinner, we tidiyiend up teh garden and headed on inside for a nice cuppa tea.
So then afterwards, Mom dropped me home. I showered(took a few NSFW pics in undies wet - first time for me). Is it normal to find your self hot??????hmmmm ponders Stanescu. So then after a quick photo session, I headed onto my sis. Twas a great visit. We had a nice cuppa chaa. hhahaha. After Mom had told me about Jack(Noeleen's kid(Noeleen being Eileen's Daughter)) and about Silvia(Michael's kid(Michael being Eileen's Son)), I then began to ponder. That if either of em came out gay or lesbian or whatever, that Eileen would make their lives HELL. So the further I began to think or as one would say, "The more I think about it, the more it makes sense". So then shortly before we went out for a walk, I then said to my sis, that I bet Eileen was involved in my homophobia. and that she's vicious. If she can give that face brrrrrrbrrbrb<<<<<shrugs shoulders>>>>>, even the sight of it makes me wanna vomit. We then headed out for the walk. I was getting myself a soya milk(mmmmmm Soya milk.) in a shop, when I went to pay for milk, I got my change(Notes from the clerk, and the coins from a machine). Says I to the clerk, "Is that mine" me chuckling. Never have I done this before. I continued on saying "I thought I'd seen it all". hahahah. It was unreal. hahaha.
I was then on my way home from my sis, when I came across a shop front listing the types of groceries that they sell. I was actually quite shocked to see that one of the types is "Rape". Now I know this is actually Rapeseed Oil kinda thing. But I can only imagine what a person who has been raped by an assaulter etc., Like think about it. Someone gets raped, then they go to a grocery store and they think in their head, "Oh, my I might be raped if I go to a store that has Rape in store. I might even consider mentioning it to someone. I will consult my sis, my mates and my folks about it. See what happens.On my way home and even when walkign with my sis, I was looking at cute guys BUT at the same time looking at what they were, and putting it on my phone. I then said to my sis, that my slownesss or "late bloomer" tends to bother me at times. Like as she puts it, nothing can be done. I told her I ain't ashamed of being gay, BUT beign slow, yeah thats a differnet ball game.
When I was doing my finances ie paying my bills weekly via AIB App, I accidentally typed in €110 in the box to transfer the said amount to UPC. I will contact UPC tomorrow and HOPE TO GOD, they will transfer 100 back to my Bank Account. Cause I need it for my rent.

But as one Tweet from the Vincent Browne was read out to us, "You don't work for the party, BUT the constituent". I think that's brilliant tweet.

Diary 23rd June 2014
Well what can I say about today. As I said to Searson, it was interesting BUT productive. . The day started off with me, struggling to get out of bed, as I was as sick as a dog(well technically exhaustive from last nights events). For a split second, I was gonna leave the whole thing and just stay on in bed. However as you will gather, It was a good thing that I didn't. As I had an amazing time. So for the 1st time in several days possibly a week now, I wasn't able to shower, as I was gonna be late. You see, today I was to go to another Dublin Pride Event, whereby I bring along Family and friends(who aren't LGBT) ie Mom, Dad et.c, to the Outhouse as an Information Session. Well last Friday when I was with the folks, I invited them to the Information session today. With regret, Dad couldn't make it(due to a Dr's Apt), however Mom was able to make it. It was my plan whereby, I be there in the Outhouse and Mom just bump into me or whatever. Or as I said to her on the phone, to be "Just herself". However, as I explained already, things didn't go to plan, however that didn't dampen my spirits of the day. Mom in the meantime, was inside in the Outhouse. I gave her a buzz, just to let her know I'm on my way. So eventually I arrived and she was sitting there having her cuppa tea. heheeh. When I arrived, I asked about the Information Session as to where is it etc., Tiffany was there. She said she'd send someone down. So we chatted and chatted. Áine, the person that Tiffany sent down, came down and then it was then I realised what the term "Information Session" meant. I was slightly disappointed, as I had understood it was like a stall type thing. So Áine brought both Mom and I around the place. We saw the Basement, where Golden Girls was held, and Halloween nights is done every year. The Red Room where Pride Events are held such as the one on Saturday etc., and then onto the Library where Men's Night is held every Friday night. So then Mom and I and Áine came back down. We thanked her for her kindness. Mom and I continued to chat further. I introduced Mom to Brendan Searson. She was delighted to have met him. Searson could tell how nervous she was. Considering her first time in Outhouse let alone LGBT facility. Mom after about an hour or so, headed on off home.
So Brendan and I then continued to chat further. Brendan had told me that there was an Launch of the BelongTo Photo Exhibition starting at 6. So the two of us headed on towards the venue at the National Photographic Archive. Brendan had never been on the Rosie Hackett Bridge where O' Farrell and I went on last month. So we sat, took a few pics and reflected.. O' Farrell had rang me when I was with Mom earlier on. He wanted to meet up. When I said I was still with my Mom he says: "Oh". As much to say he was surprised considering what I had been telling him in the past about her. Searson and I trekked our way towards the National Photographic Archive in Temple Bar.
We arrived and lo and behold who was at he Exhibition but O' Farrell. heheeh. I met several VIP Figures. Colm O' Gorman - Amnesty International. He recognnsied me from 7 years ago when I canvassed for him when he was running as Progressive Democrats. I was overwhelmed that he actually remembered me. Then I met Dominic Hannigan from the Labour Party. He's a TD. David O' Caroll, Director of BelongTo. He thought I had met him in person. I also met Fintan(whom, Searson was talking about him for a few days) from Sinn Féin, as it happens I had met him back in either the Political Debate or the Pride to Remember. Can't remember which. Such a small world indeed. heehhe. So then we had a few speeches and the Guest of Honor being Colm, spoke a few words. Then afterwards Both Brendans and I headed for a nice cuppa tea. Nice and serene indeed.
So O' Farrell headed on home. And Searson and I headed back towards Outhouse. Searson was going to go to a movie, however Searson treated me to a cuppa tea(Green Tea). How nice of him. SO we chatted and chatted. We bumped into a few people. Bernard, then Declan, then Mark. SO as you can gather a busy and very productive day. So shortly before we were all kicked out of the Outhouse as it closes at 10 Mark gave us all a great laugh. Me in particular. As a joke Mark had said that Brendan has a secret side to him, in that he does drag known as "BReda, The Bitch". What a laugh I had. Great hearty laugh. Mark was showing us pictures of his out door activities. I was most impressed by that Mark goes out cycling to Howth every single day at 6 in the morning. The last time I attempted it, I was with the DublinFreeWheelers in which my muscles were gone out the door with the pain like almost 40km to cycle. hmmmm

Diary 22nd June 2014
Well its been a quiet day overall but quite an interesting one. I was due to get up for 5.15 to go and see my sis as I do every Sunday and Tues. However today, as I was tired from the walking and more so the fact that I stayed up all night for Aldi's this morning, and got 5 hrs sleep and all the walking, got up slightly later than anticipated.
So I set about heading off to her. We looked at TV and a bit of a chat to go along with it. heeheh. I told her about the recent sight seeings such as me seeing a mates name in the Facebook notifications saying that I was mentioned in a comment on a post I had posted. And it actually was someone else. Same with my Box too. At 1pm every day, I record the 1 o' clock News. Yet on Friday, it never recorded as it was out of disk space. Yet I saw it recording. Now the reason I bring these two examples up are that I mentioned to my sis and she said its a possibility of my eye sight going. At the very least to go an get an eye test. So I put it to her could it be that the food intake reduction could be a factor. You'd never know. hahah
So after her, I headed on home. On the way, I got a few take aways. Namely Flaming Wok, Four Star Pizza and New Mandarin Chinese.
So I enjoyed two of three of the takeaways. Shortly in the middle of the 3rd one, I started to struggle to finish it. Stomach so full and so soar it is, I regret to tell you thou, that it was actually a case of Food Poisoning, and hence vomited the whole thing(well actually the food in question - The other two are still there so far - God speed). Ive had to disinfect the toilet with Harpers toilet solution. Hoping dat'll do the trick. Twas quite painful with the curry thou when I was throwing up. So far so good. I've been drinking my one carton of 15 SOya Milk for the night.

As we don't have FULL Marriage Equability in Ireland, the two are too elope and get married in London, United Kingdom.

Diary 21st June 2014
Well after a few hours sleep, I got reluctantly but at the same time encouragingly and showered. Moments before I was due to go to sleep, I got a bit panicky as I actually did need my iPod for the Arlam function, as Sammy no long can provide it. Poddy does that for me. But when I came in last nite(well technically this morning - hehehe), I left my Poddy down somewhere. I ignored this UNTIL I had to get and find. I had done my rubbish and now I had the need to look for iPod. So eventually I found Poddy. And headed for a 40 winks. Then when I got up, I showered n got ready. I then made my way to the Outhouse as part of Pride events of Annual. Its known as Societies Day. Whereby Companies and support services offer there services as in like an Open Day for a college kinda thing. Following are the company's that were on offer to offer their services.
G-Force
Branching Out
When I approached Branching Out, I recognised Olive from the A Pride To Remember Event. Twas wonderful and lovely. However I did learn that Branching Out is Spiritual aspect of Pride. Never knew of this. heeheh.
Gay Switch Board
And others of course.
I then joined up afterwards and saw Searson. Twas great to see him. We had a wee chat. Then he was going to another event of Dublin Pride namely the NewsTalk Global Village in the Morgan Hotel. I went along to just put in time, as my film was at 6.50 and this was about 5.30. So I popped along. I was most impressed with the layout of the Event in question and the Hotel. Fabulous indeed. heeheheh. Dil who was hosting the show which was being broadcast live on radio, remembered me at a Halloween Party. I was most impressed and still am, as to how she remembered me. I was delighted. On the way to the Hotel for the NewsTalk event, I saw my Inflatable Penis. It was for a hen party that was taking place. I was ecstatic. So then I headed on towards the cineama. On the way, I wanted to see the Gallery of BeLongTo(Ireland's LGBT Youth Service) National Gallery Archive. The further I delved in, I encountered IFI(Irish Film Institute). I was most impressed with the whole layout, so unique and old fashioned ie the Walls as in the Old Dublin kinda thing. So I saw on the poster that they have a Loyalty Scheme and a Membership, something like Cineworld. So I questioned about the scheme. I was told that its 25 a year and you get free movies OFF peak and discount off tickets. Mind you the tickets ain't that bad actually. Like 5 for a ticket where as Cineworld is about 7 or 8. Food thou i'd say be high as you get a discount of 15% over €10 order. Eitherway, I think I'll sign up. And the fact that they feature LGBT Films too, that's a big plus alrite.
I eventaully arrived at teh cinema. I tasted the jaleopinos after my first time, was stinging with pain of spucyness i decided to try again. I can't wait to try it again. What prob happend the last time was that I ate them instead of with the Nachos. hahaha. So I went in and saw Maleficent. REview. here.
So shortly before I turned in, I headed to ALdis to get a few clothing that was going on for sale. Then I headed to Lidls to get Milk. Loving it and addicted to the stuff. hahaah.

Diary 20th June 2014
So after yet another hibernation period(however I can now tell why I had a hibernation this time). Me body aching all over as if I had done a days work. For a walk that took a half hour to actually and hour and a half. I was aching in my muscles. Or as my ma would say" Muscle you've never used". haahah. So eventually I got up, when I saw the red light on my box meaning the 1'o clock news was recording. Next minute when I actually get up, Its gone. So perhaps its ran out of space. Lord I hope so and nothing else freaky. So I showered. And one name has been involved in my mind for the past few minutes to an hour. My mom's sister Eileen. I will have to ask my Mom if Eileen knows about my mom's work colleague being gay and the gay couple in the US. Cuase if she don't, then it would explain the homophobia, I got. Like that time, my sis and I were waiting outside the Hughes' (Ailish and Noel)household to get a coat for my Uncles funeral(which started my depression). Eileen gave the most wickedest of eyes u could think of. Even in my own home(where I was reared too). She clearly is against gays. No question of it.
So after the shower, I listening to my voicemails. Two were of interest to me. One was from an English number which I found out eventually. She said "Sad day for England". Meaning England must have been kicked out of the world cup and also about a bike or something. I've a feeling its either the Mulligans(WHICH I DOUBT IT) or Possibly my good mate and I refer to him as smiley Andy Palmer. And the other voicemail of interest were my folks. They came back from a holier in Wexford. Mom said on the voicemail they were in Courtown, Co. Wexford and on a boat(fake btw) and remember my sis steering the wheel. And another memory of my mom remembering too was the time my sis sang "Galway Girl" with a group in Ashtown/Ashdown Park Hotel just outside of Gorey, Co. Wexford.
So after the voicemails checking, I then set about heading off to Tescos and Lloyds Pharmacy. I got 6 or 7 Shaving Creams and 3 4 Pack Yoghurts, 3x Barefoot Wines(One for my folks - to welcome em home), 2x Butter(Vegan - Pure) and Compost for me pops. So I called up to em. Boy what a reaction I got. hahaha. Twas priceless. I had my top off and a compost bag on me soldier and introduced myself as follow: "Farmer George here delivering the goods for my Pops." When I said the same quote to Dad, he actually thought it was for myself. Says I to him, what do I need it for. hahaha. So I told em of my adventures to the Big Gay Sing, then to the Politics of Pride and Marriage Equality and A Pride to Remember hence where I got the wine for them. We discussed my bday, which being the 30th I'm marking it with my new phone. So after awhile, I headed off. Before I headed off, I had asked Mom if Eileen(her sister) knew about mom's gay(male) colleague and Dad's two Lesbian relatives(who got married ie Gay Couple). TO my surprise yes Eileen does know. and secondly she didn't care, and what I wasn't even prepared for was that Mom told me that Eileen didn't mind, in that she was impressed by her JOB, not her label. I was most impressed. So why da hell is Eileen giving me looks. hmmmmmm. PONDERS. Mom dropped me home. So instead of me staying in for the night, considering it was quite early, I decided to head to the cinema.
So with that in mind, I headed on towards the Outhouse first to put in time as the film I was to see was at 10.20. However when I arrived, I was too late in getting a cuppa. So I just headed onto Men's Night int he Library. Lo and behold I came across O' Farrell. Twas great. So we both headed to see X-Men: Days of Future Past. (Review here). So after the film, I headed with O' Farrell to Harcourt St., where its on his way to his place. I then was saddened and still am, when O' Farrell told me that the George is closing down and being baught by an English company Westerone. Something like that. And its gonna be converted to a restaurant. I exclaimed its gonna be a sad day for the Gay Community. Considering the straights have em everywhere, yet the LGBT have only 3 venues. The Dragon, Front Lounge and Panti Bar and the Dandelion which goes Gay on Tuesday nights.

Diary 19th June 2014
As I was exhausted from the morning's shopping and struggling in bringing em home, which obviously I got home eventually, I retired to bed for a few winks. However when I set the alarm for about quarter past 5 in the evening, for a film, I noted the time when I did actually wake up was shortly after midnight, cause I heard an alarm bleep for my gaming which I used to use for every night to send gifts to my friends. So I then realsied obv all businesses would be closed etc., etc., So I stayed on. In that here's the dreams I had trhoguhout the night. hahha
Frank comes knocking on my door wanting something or whatever. Here's me worried that i might get thrown out cause he has threatened in the past. So I quickly in a frantic throu a shoe away out of his way.
As it happens he is very depressed he didn't even compliment on how TIDY my place is(which I kinda miss - hahah). So then shortly afterwards, he's left and 3 people are on my coffee table, (whom I thought were with Frank) are halving sex right i front of me. Its like a dream morphed into another. Cause Next minute, I'm in my dream strokeing my junior. Getting hard etc., etc.,3 people I understood were all GUYS(mmmm) however one turned out to be a woman. Now WTF's that about. haahah
Then another dream, I'm gone from a lecture late at night, to get my Vibrator with balls on the outside(just can't describe em properly). Then they are in an unrecognisable bag for the sake of the public. When I approach the college and get in, there's this reporter running after me etc., I strictly tell her, NO more. There's a presentation going on, regarding a computer event or something. I sit in the corner. For some reason I kncok out the lights n immediately turn em back on. There had to be a reason, of which I cannot remember. Get this guys, my trousers n undies are down t oo, NOW WTF's that about toooo. So I'm about to pull em up and I see a lassie telling her friend "look over here" etc.,e tc., So then I'm about to head off when the cops with guns pull up. and they threatening we will "shoot you, if you turn the lights back on". In which they do, in the arm is where they shot me, as I turned em back on. the image I got out of the shooting was where in X - Men: Days of Future Past(Review here. ) was when Erik(Fassbender) was being shot my Mistique the bullet went straight through his neck, piercing a hole. Thats the image I got from the shot in the arm. I in the meantime had heard in the background two words. "paedophilia" and "cop". I repeat this to the cops. As it happens they were fake cops. The reporters want to know whats going on. I tell em, You all have "cushy jobs", while I'm struggling with life. something like that. I told em, "You can all Quote me on that".

Diary 18th June 2014
Well today was to be of a more relax day. I got a message from O' Farrell saying that he's too busy with his family and his dissertation. So with that, I had a thought of whether to bother going out at all etc., For the sake of the Pennys in O' Connell St., I decided to up the antiques. So I then showered got dressed and headed on officially to the Cinewolrd for the film. On the way, I had various ideas. The Outhouse, Pennys etc., etc., I went around the town topless. Twas a lovely day.
So I then headed onto Penny's with a view of buying a sports gear mainly for the Gear Fetish night on Saturday week. as it happens, they had ran out of em as in like the Pennys in Mary/Parnell St aswell. So I said ill leave it altogether. I ain't gonna spend €50 on a t shirt for something I'd wear one night. I had hoped that Gear fetish club would do Trackies as that's a fetish too(well to my understand - haahah).
So it has been decided that I ain't gonna bother with Gear Fetish Pride Night on Saturday at all. I had been undecisive. Well Penny's in O' Connell St helped me make up my mind. So with this in mind, I decided on the way to Outhouse that I pop into Glamworld to see if my Inflatable Cock as they call it for €25. It was unfortunate that it wasn't there. They had been trying to sell it. So I started to go around, and went to Good Vibrations, they didn't have it then the I went into SoHo Books as well. I asked if they just sell books, considering the NAME. He said they sell other stuff DVDs, vibrators etc., and says "WHY". I then asked if they sell Inflatable Cocks and no surprise says NO. He then went onto say about Inflatables Penis on a beach and that's why they are being sold like mad. I said on a BEACH of all places. Says he "Why NOT". I was most not ready for that response. hahaha. But I of course agree hehehehe. They's so adorable. I then went onto another sex shop(Black shop face - can't think of the name). So I went in, there were two guys. One siting down, and the other a non-national. The Non-national didn't know where it was. Either he didn't have English or whatever, so frustrating it was. So I just left.
So then I went onto Outhouse. Twas lovely to see the old gang again. ahahah. When I first went in, Sven('scuse the spelling) greeted me with a ooooh hot kinda greeting, as I went in topless to sign in(for security reasons, you have to sign in in case of fire). So I put my top on and went in. I saw Patrick, Declan Kennedy, David(The quiet person), Noel(First time meeting him), Oliver. I had seen Noel in the past even the name. Just can't quite recall it. hahaha. But eitehr way twas lovely seeing em. The discussion was Pride and today's society. David's argument was that the're no need for showing dicks or asses in Pride casue of kids etc., Noel's argument was that we only get one day a year, to celebrate out diversity. They even acknowledged(Which I was amazed BUT so happy), that Bisexuality and Transgender people are often left out of the loop). Noel even mentioned that a work colleague of his, had asked him, how you know if you;re gay if you never had sex with a woman. His response was clever, "How you know you're straight". Great debate. However, I said to all, just emigrate to the US. hahaha.
And with that I went onto to see how my child is(ahem my son that is. ). I popped into see Godzilla. Review here. I had looked up the Cineworld App to see a film. Apparently I hadn't looked at the film name, as I had understood I was seeing Godzilla at 20 past 8. But that was some other film, so I just went in anyways. I was late by a few minutes. But didn't matter. hahaha. On the way hoem from the cinema, I noted a fire. I went over to have a looksie. It was just some ass burning something like a toy or something. Couldn't make it out. haha
I then headed out like I did a few months ago for my spidey clothes., whereby I stay up til Lidls open the next day(19th June). I got a few clothes and my groceries 5x OJ. I looked in the milk isle for Soya, and to my surprise they don't. They have Lactose Free milk. I asked a floor person, and they obv didn't know what it means when I asked "Dairy-free", by asking me "whats that?" I was getting a bit impatient as they should know the products they are selling. So I said " You know without Diary, not the cow". Something like that. So then I headed onto Aldis as they'd have it. So I got my 5x Soya Milk. mmmmm. This elderly lady, all there as one would say - haahha., was getting a bit worried NOT for the good of my health as I was struggling badly with the two heavy bags but she thought that I would be taking my time by checking all the TWO bagful of prods. I felt like saying to her yes that I shall be checking them out and you will have to wait. She had only 3 items - cherries etc., She wanted to get ahead of me. I said that I ain't that bad. That I Only have 5 milks to get checked ie to pay. I did however say to her, that in the past, that I have had to wait behind a customer who has a whole basketful of products. I then headed onto Tescos. I got my 5x Vegan Butter(Pure) and 2x Yogurt(Soya) and a chocolate flavored milk(soya too). So I asked if they sell Barefoot Wine as I had a taste of it on Monday. The lady kept insisting that I wanted to buy there and then(as its against the law to purchase alchohol BEFORE 11am). I didn't want to buy it. I just wanted to know if they sold it at all. As it happens, they do. So thats good for me. hahaha. Then after Tescos, I headed on home. For a journey by walk that normally takes about half hour, it took me almost an hour and a half. The bags were killing me. Veins sticking out a mile long etc., So eventually after a long haul and struggling I got home.
While I was doing my lasssties of TV shows, before heading to bed, I got a call from a "Microsoft". I remember this quite a few years ago, whereby I got caught in the scam. He would say that my computer is infected by a virus or whatever, and to pay up to get it fixed etc., So to save time, I said "I actually don't have a Microsoft computer". He hung up immediately. As he's ringing International, it actually costs me, so I can't afford it on my UPC bill.
I have noticed in recent days/weeks that I see things but they ain't there in reality. Must be loosing my mind at a young age. hahaha. Eg. I was going through my FB Notifications and saw that a friend of mine had mentioned me in a comment. When I actually saw the comment, it was actually a different friend. Says I to meself: "Could have sworn it was someone else". This has been happening quite alot of late.
Then as I was about to head to bed, I then noted that my RTE 1 O' Clock news was not being recorded. Likewise the Morning Edition too. Was kinda annoyed. It was the infamous Technical Fault - 10 error I get. Previously I have received this, to resolve it, I have to Rebuild the Planner and restart the Box. Now normally I wouldn't have a problem, however the problem this time is that I have to cancel any recordings which currently I'm recording Music on MTV Classic.

Rory McIlroy has announced he is to compete in the Olympic Allegiance in the Olympics 2016 in Rio `
King Juan Carlos' son Prince Phillippe has been made King as of Midnight Local time(Which I think means Spanish time). Former King, signed the Bill into Law last night.
So I then headed onto Penny's with a view of buying a sports gear mainly for the Gear Fetish night on Saturday week. as it happens, they had ran out of em as in like the Pennys in Mary/Parnell St aswell. So I said ill leave it altogether. I ain't gonna spend €50 on a t shirt for something I'd wear one night. I had hoped that Gear fetish club would do Trackies as that's a fetish too(well to my understand - haahah).
So it has been decided that I ain't gonna bother with Gear Fetish Pride Night on Saturday at all. I had been undecisive. Well Penny's in O' Connell St helped me make up my mind. So with this in mind, I decided on the way to Outhouse that I pop into Glamworld to see if my Inflatable Cock as they call it for €25. It was unfortunate that it wasn't there. They had been trying to sell it. So I started to go around, and went to Good Vibrations, they didn't have it then the I went into SoHo Books as well. I asked if they just sell books, considering the NAME. He said they sell other stuff DVDs, vibrators etc., and says "WHY". I then asked if they sell Inflatable Cocks and no surprise says NO. He then went onto say about Inflatables Penis on a beach and that's why they are being sold like mad. I said on a BEACH of all places. Says he "Why NOT". I was most not ready for that response. hahaha. But I of course agree hehehehe. They's so adorable. I then went onto another sex shop(Black shop face - can't think of the name). So I went in, there were two guys. One siting down, and the other a non-national. The Non-national didn't know where it was. Either he didn't have English or whatever, so frustrating it was. So I just left.
So then I went onto Outhouse. Twas lovely to see the old gang again. ahahah. When I first went in, Sven('scuse the spelling) greeted me with a ooooh hot kinda greeting, as I went in topless to sign in(for security reasons, you have to sign in in case of fire). So I put my top on and went in. I saw Patrick, Declan Kennedy, David(The quiet person), Noel(First time meeting him), Oliver. I had seen Noel in the past even the name. Just can't quite recall it. hahaha. But eitehr way twas lovely seeing em. The discussion was Pride and today's society. David's argument was that the're no need for showing dicks or asses in Pride casue of kids etc., Noel's argument was that we only get one day a year, to celebrate out diversity. They even acknowledged(Which I was amazed BUT so happy), that Bisexuality and Transgender people are often left out of the loop). Noel even mentioned that a work colleague of his, had asked him, how you know if you;re gay if you never had sex with a woman. His response was clever, "How you know you're straight". Great debate. However, I said to all, just emigrate to the US. hahaha.
And with that I went onto to see how my child is(ahem my son that is. ). I popped into see Godzilla. Review here. I had looked up the Cineworld App to see a film. Apparently I hadn't looked at the film name, as I had understood I was seeing Godzilla at 20 past 8. But that was some other film, so I just went in anyways. I was late by a few minutes. But didn't matter. hahaha. On the way hoem from the cinema, I noted a fire. I went over to have a looksie. It was just some ass burning something like a toy or something. Couldn't make it out. haha
I then headed out like I did a few months ago for my spidey clothes., whereby I stay up til Lidls open the next day(19th June). I got a few clothes and my groceries 5x OJ. I looked in the milk isle for Soya, and to my surprise they don't. They have Lactose Free milk. I asked a floor person, and they obv didn't know what it means when I asked "Dairy-free", by asking me "whats that?" I was getting a bit impatient as they should know the products they are selling. So I said " You know without Diary, not the cow". Something like that. So then I headed onto Aldis as they'd have it. So I got my 5x Soya Milk. mmmmm. This elderly lady, all there as one would say - haahha., was getting a bit worried NOT for the good of my health as I was struggling badly with the two heavy bags but she thought that I would be taking my time by checking all the TWO bagful of prods.

Diary 17th June 2014
Today's event, was A Pride to Remember. I got up and showered. Got ready. Had a bite to eat. Then I headed on towards the event. My first stop was An Post. Got my dosh. She had a bit of a tude I found, perhaps she never knew I was gay. haha. She being the proprietor Sandra from the time, she mentally abused me over being too late. So with that in mind, as I have lost my bank card, I manually put the money in the account in AIB in question. Then I was due to pop into Scribbles to top up my O2 Money from the cash my folks gave me, however I left my O2 Money card behind. So then I headed onto my event in Dublin City Archive. When I arrived, I was greeted by a wine reception by our good friends BareFoot wines. Beautiful. I had a Rosé. Twas lovely. I recognsie a guy who used to live across the road from me. He mustn't be into me in anyway or form, as I had messaged him on FB and on Grindr, and no reply. We were introduced to the event by Chairperson of Dublin Pride, in turn introduced Toni Walshe(Curator of the Irish Queer Archive) treated to a slide show of the History of Pride Movement.

So after the event, I got talking to a few people. I was introduced to Jamie and his partner Jeff. Jeff just before the event ended, made a good point in that his home country Australia, has the Mardi Gras. Which is actually would you believe it, Gay Pride Downunder. I had heard of it alrite. But never knew it was spoz to be Gay. Then again, I kinda knew it was to do with gays, because of the way they dressed up etc., It has something to do with Businesses and Financial gain out of the whole thing. His point was that Gay Pride is for US, not the companies or whatever. Then we were rudely kicked out of the Library. Just before we got out, I saw Laurence, I hadn't seen him in ages. He has since quit Outhouse,(he used to be a volunteer there). He claims he goes to the cinema quite alot namely the Cineworld. I hadn't seen him there. Yet I go there quite alot.
So then Brendan O' F, Jamie and I headed uptwards the city. Jamie and Jeff(who got married in New Zealand) and Brendan all dispersed. We were with Mark. (I remarked his Nokia XL phone - he obviously didn't know what I was talking about). Brendan, Jamie and I were together and Jeff(Jamies hubbie) and Mark were ahead of us. So we all met at Trinity College eventually from all the talking and walking up and we all dispersed eventually. Brendan headed on home, I headed towards me sis. Jamie and Jeff headed to Smithfield where they r currently living. Mark, I don't know what became of him. hahaah
So I eventually got to my sis. I got her a tea in spar, realising that both C + T (7pm) and Centra(9pm) close earlier. As I had arrived at my sis at half 9, 10. I was surprised thou to see that Centra was still opening at 9pm. We chatted for a bit. Looked at tv shows. Twas a great visit. heeheh. My sis had pointed out thou that because of my outburst with the lassies yesterday. She got a bit concerned of the aggressiveness. Although the girls were int he wrong, I overreacted. I apparently had been storing quite alot of anger, and took it out on the girls.

Diary 16th June 2014
Today was after a wonderful concert last night, it was time for my next event which was a lively and most interesting debate. My next event being Politics, Pride & Equality - The Debate. From what I gather bottomline, the Politics of Marriage Equality. That was the basic line. So I got up, showered and got dressed. I was on my way over to Dublin City Library, where the event was being held, I was late by almost a half hour. Despite me being in that very building for more or less the same debate that was on last year, I still failed to locate the building. I asked a few people. Some were ignorant, some didn't actually didn't know it.What can ya do. But then I realised that the building was slightly older and I also noted the brand new Pearse Street Station. Boy I was gobsmacked. Absolutely lovely it is. So when I realsied and admired the new front, I went ahead inside to the Debate.
Adam Long Chaired the debate.
Following are the people who were on the panel.
Grainne Healy - Chair of the Marriag Equality group
Catherine Byrne - Fine Gael TD for Dublin South Central
Senator Ivana Bacik - Deputy Leader of Seanad (Labour)
Senator Averil Power - Fianna Fail
Cllr Chris Curran - Chair of Sinn Fein LGBT and Dublin Councillor
Cllr Roderic O'Gorman - Dublin Green Party Councillor
I recognised Tiernan from Glen and William.
The following are the proposals and ideas that were discussed at the debate.
It was proposed that the Labour Party is far more in favor of Marriage Equality more so than Fine Gael by the media. I can quite agree with him.
Senator Powers was asked something relating to the papers, and her response was 85% DON'T believe in the newspaper
It was also suggested that personal stories of the LGBT Community around the country will help the Yes side and help the campaign. If ever I was asked to get involve. There's no question, that I will be participating. After all, I was abused left right and center. No remorse., they go on LIEING, there way through to me, being hypocrites that they are. Like they know gay people yet they treated there own, like trash,
What was also suggested, was that we need to focus on the YOUNG people who actually support Same Sex Marriage and hence should get out and vote. However the majority just don't bother with referendums. Its the Older Ppl who vote in all weathers that we have to drive the message to them, to vote Yes in the Gay Marriage referendum. Currently USI is working on a campaign in colleges to get them to vote int eh Gay Marriage Referendum
Most importantly though, is the cross party support for the Referendum.
WE also have to be visible. Visibility is a major key. Instead of being closeted or even just keeping quite, get out their, be who you want to be, and force people to say, "There is such thing as Gay People" etc.,
Get friends talking etc about the issues that are faced by LGBT people on a constant daily struggle.
Getting equality we need to market European wide. Boris Dittrich has stated will help out in any way he can. Civil partnership was brought out in The Netherlands. It was the first country to bring it.
One fear facing the referendum is that of the gay couples have no family. We need to satisfy all the Fears out their.
Then onto the issue of Gender Recognition.
Currently its 18. So the panel agreed it should be brought down to 16, as medically speaking that's when the puberty kicks in and besides medically we have the right at 16 anyways. Gender recognition when person has changed gender. Denmark became the first country Europe for gender recognition and as such moves further and further away from sex, sexuality and gender model
In 1990 WHO(World Health Organisation) took Gay, Lesbian off da "mad/bad" list. - Grainne
Other points made at the Debate was:
Would it change constitutions of marriage r family if the Referendum were to be passed.
Constitution does not define marriage currently
"U start where u r. "
We need to put up armor for the things in the campaign
LGBT who r coming out n hearing the negativity in the course if the campaign
If we lose the fight and the Referendum is defeated, it will send us back to the "stone age".
As one member of the floor said, "We cannot afford to wait 10 yrs" let alone 40 to pass a legislation.
Instead of telling the No side what they can do with their facts and figures, WE can give them this as quoted by Chris Curran cllr. "Forgive them Lord for they don't no what to do. "
Using bullying tactics will result in strong no, its unfortunate but true. One member of the floor, had stated if we start yelling out about the Priests, and Catholicism covering up Kerry Babies, Mother and Home, etc., etc.,
Wording will need to be un confusing like the seanad switching lied to confusion n hence was defeated. Yes this needs to be done, right from day one. Unlike the Seanad referendum, it was blamed on the Wording of the Question on the Ballot Paper. It lead to confusion and hence was defeated.
Lgbt in da workplace educators
As long as the kids doing well in school the parents "don't give a damn about the sexual Orientation"(Sen power) of the educator
Can it be repealed the section 37 r removed. Recommended to change instead
Remove religious from school. That'd b brill. Let's move on.
Homonegativty
Homophobia: Tim from Amnesty who was on the floor, pointed instead of talking homophobia relating to fear and bullying etc., why can't we manifested it towards denying rights
Openness n being open opening minds.
So as you can see, a quite compelling debate. Quite interesting.
So Brendan O' F and I headed on home, and dispersed. While I was on my way home, I came across a bunch of girls, probably going to a party or whatever, were wanting to mess with me, by putting a cup ontop of me head. So I reacted quickly by swishing by hand and prevented them from doing their action. Perhaps they were wanting to just piss me off or perhaps with the TShirt: "Smile if you're Gay". Nobody, and I sincerely mean nobody gets away with bullying or whatever u wanna call. I was hidden and kept my mouth shut for too many years

Diary 15th June 2014
I got up with great excitement to the highlight of the calendar year. The Big Gay Sing in the Bord Gáis Energy Theatre. It was truly an amazing event. It was announced towards the end of the night, that it raised over €35k towards Marriage Equality. We will need every cent of it, to win the Referendum next year. I first met O' Farrell at the NCI and we headed on over to Bord Gáis Energy. This was gonna be a Birthday to never forget for him. I treated him to a Birthday night he'd never forget. So then we were asked to wait outside the auditorium. We had popcorn. The popcorn was not the best quality I've ever had. Very salty and NOT fresh sense of taste, I was getting. We bumped into two guys, one of which we recognised from the Outhouse. Although it took a bit of time for me to recognise him. hehehe. So afterwards we all went into the Auditorium. We waited a few minutes for the Concert to start. The view was a bit disturbing, in that the roof of the above seating was in the way of the view of the concert. So shortly before the concert started, we were informed by the staff, that a row was nearer the view of the view of the stage was available. So we could sit anywhere. We were so lucky, in that the view was much better.
So after a while, the curtain was raised and after awhile we were treated by Ms Panti(aka Rory O' Neill). I've always adored him and inspired by him. The concert got off to a lively start via an onscreen whereby the lyrics were onscreen and we could sing to our hearts content. WE belted out the tunes of The Sound of Music Medley, It was spectacular then a few other tunes. Then Dancing Queen came, more tunes were belted out. Then it came time for an interval. So Brendan went out first to get a coke, and then I followed him, I got Roberts Green Tea. Beautiful it was. Then after went back in with him. The two guys we met(One from being in the Outhouse and his mate) joined us. Ms Panti then paid tribute to Senator David Norris who started the Gay Rights Movement in Ireland. Then after a bit of music, we were treated to a first time LIVE Marriage Proposal. I got so emotional over it (well in the heart). first time a live Marriage Proposal between John(if I can recall his name) and Brad. May I wish them the very best of luck to them both.
Sound of Music - Medley
Cher - Believe - When this was being sung, I was thinking of Jack from Will & Grace and his love of Cher. It was a fantastic rendition.
Lady Gaga - Edge of Glory
Abba - Dancing Queen - All I can think of is my Pops, as he loves ABba.
WE Are Family - Medley

Diary 14th June 2014
Well today was to be a very busy day. I got up quite early after my hibernation - hahaha yesterday. Showered and got ready. I looked at yesterday's News Bulletins. Then after that I got ready to head to one of the most anticipated events of the annual gay calendar, ahahah. This year thou was to be something of an exception. In that Various Voices came to Dublin for the first time, of which is my understanding, now I could be wrong. It is the European LGBT Chorus Festival. Various Voices is a competition between all the LGBT Choirs from all over the world, and they descended onto Dublin. So with this in mind, City Hall was 1 of many venues, whereby we could "sample" the choirs. So that's the background to the event I attended today. On my way to Various Voices, I came across a guy, that I thought I recognised him from DublinFreeWheelers. Quite the splitting image of him. Further towards the Various Voices, I came across another guy, now I had my headphones, on so I couldn't hear what the guy was saying. But from the lip reading, I could gather he possibly says "Faire play to ya boi". I have a Marriage Equality TShirt on me. heheeh, hence why he possibly says such.
So now onto the exciting Event in question. I arrived eventually at City Hall. It was indicated on the Dublin Pride booklet, that to get into the Various Voices event, that you would need to book a ticket via emailing. However O' Farrell since told me that you don't need to, just come and stay as for as long as you want. So when I arrived, I was standing for a bit. However late on, I found O' Farrell and then sat beside him. WE were treated to wonderful choirs. The choirs were from as I said above all over the world. It was my intention after the choirs, that I pop along to the Dublin Food CoOp to get dad's pressie for Father's Day. I stayed for 3 choirs. Each choir sang a selection of songs. I recognised a few. Not many. The 3 choirs, were from Switzerland, Manchester Lesbian and Gay Chorus, England and Germany. Out of the 3 choirs, I heard, I wholeheartedly enjoyed every moment of Manchester Lesbian and Gay Chorus. They were so powerful. They sang a wonderful rendition of I Dream, A Dream - Les Miserables. There was an elder woman in the choir, possibly in her 70s maybe 80s. She had her stick. I totally admired her for that. The only fault I found out of the other two choirs, was the language. They sang in their local native language, of which I found to be of a dampener. But didn't spoil the day one bit. I totally enjoyed myself.
So afterwards, Brendan joined me to pop along to Dublin Food CoOp. We sat down for a bit. Then we looked around. I treated him to a wrap might I add a Veggie wrap. He truly enjoyed it. It was a Greek wrap. He was most impressed with the building Dublin Food CoOp. He said a few times, that his mother would like the Oil as she uses it quite alot. He told me just before we went in, that his Paps(RIP), grew up in Frances St., then moved the family to Terenure where he grew up. Then I got myself a beautiful Vegie Falafel and then sat down again fora bit. While sitting down, he was asking why I can't find a book to read etc., I explained English is and can be an obstacles, but more so, that if I look up the web or ask someone what does such a word mean ie the dictionary, I would loose my train of thought. I explained one book I had read when I was a kid, based on the IRA goings on, in the past ie the Northern Ireland troubles. I went onto explain that I felt like I was a "character" in the book. So after a weee chat, we then headed to the little shop I got my now infamous Vegan Butter Biona. Can't wait to taste it. heehehe.
So then after a wonderful visit to the Dublin Food CoOp, Both Both Brendan and I headed off. He wanted to go back to the Various Voices and I wanted to headed to the Outhouse, as when I was passing the Outhouse, to the Various Voices, I noticed that there were alot of Banners, meaning I understood to be of an event or something. On out way to the Various Voices, where Brendan wanted to go back, to, I popped into the 99c store to get a card fro dad. When I arrived, it was literally "dead". Not a single soul around. So I just got myself a sandwich, and a cuppa Green Tea. Twas lovely. While there, I was reading an article by Brian Finnegan, Editor of GCN(Now The Outmost). Twas quite interesting it was. It was referring to the Gay Marriage Referendum whereby it will be put to the People of Ireland in 2015. The article, states that those who are in favor of Gay Marriage are in the young age bracket, hence the past Referendas have had a history of a low turnout and only those who are in their elders or older, possibly might reject the Proposal of changing the Constitution of Ireland. In the article it was also mentioned that countries who are against Marriage Equality namely Uganda and Nigeria and Croatia, would pay big bucks to the No side of the Gay Marriage Referendum. It was quite disheartened to hear such people would such. Aww well, we'll be out with full force for the Yes side.
So afterwards, I had a small intention of seeing a movie namely Godzilla in iMax. However plans changed. Yesterday or the day before, I had received a voicemail saying that both my sis and I can give our dad pressies for Father's Day at the CAR. So I made my way to my sis. However I got a missed call from Mom. I attempted to ring her, but went to Voicemail. So there's me wondering to myself, that my sis is in hospital or something. I got her a few groceries. I was struggling with them on the way. Even though it was only a short distance. When I arrived, I rang her buzzer several times, no answer. So I still thought yep she's in hospital or something. I attempted to ring her, but my battery went. So I trawled her groceries all the way back and might I add my stuff that I had bought too from both C+T and Centra. So when I got back all sweaty and all, I rang her to see what s up, the fact that her phone was ringing, says I to meself whats up, well actually I checked her Facebook Messages and her profile to see was their any clue that maybe she gone into hospital or whatever. Nope. Nada. So I rang her, and as it happens she was up with the folks. It was found that Mom had last minute changed plans to get my sis out of her place. Eitherway, I didn't appreciate all this last minute change. I was saying to myself did I hear her right I mean on the voicmail etc.,
So back to my sis I went with her groceries, but wasn't too bad. But jazis my hands were literally soar as be damned. and as scared. So on my way to my sis for the second time, I took my top off cause with the plastic bag's handles were killing me, so I needed something soft. As I was going round shirtless, literally, I had eyes gawking at me, as much to say what up with this. U never seen a topless dude. As I said to my sis, I am bringing America over here, by means of behavior etc., So my sis and I looked at TV then after a short stay, I headed on to the folks to hand over the pressie. Twas nice to see em and all. Mom being her usual Irish Mammy self. WORRY. Well never fear mam, I'll never go in hiding. So after a heavy heated debate on what I should wear(bearing in mind the Marriage Equality TShirt), Mom n Dad dropped me home.

I was due to get up to see my son Godzilla. Review here. However the alarm never wen toff and hence was far too late in getting to the film. However there was a different in this sleep hibernation as I'd like to call it. In that I was actually prepared to get up even thou it was too late(half 10 when I got up, which I instead stayed on. hahaha). The reason why my alarm failed to get me up was that Poddy(iPod) was in mute mode, of which while I was trying to get the quote from the film, Maleficent. Review here. and hence why I had to mute the Poddy.

So I got up pretty early after my hibernation. haahah. I then in the middle of looking at my currents affairs program got a call from Sky, wanting to me to sign up to Sky HD. I previously used to be with HD, however as my TV didn't support it, I was wasting money. However they have introduced an offer of €5 per month for a year and NO Contract. I thinks that's a great offer, however I just don't see the point in it, as its a waste of money, if my TV don't support HD. Then shortly before ending the call, he asked if I would wanna sign up to Sky Broadband and Phone. I said "Oh, Lord no". I'm perfectly happy with my service from UPC. So we left it at that.
So after a few hours of listening to yesterday's news and Current Affairs, I checked my Bank Account was in debt of 64(My Sky Bill). So I headed to the Post Office to transfer from my An Post Savings to the Bank Account.
So now I'm about to head out to see my mate O' Farrell to see 22 Jump St., Just before I headed out, I noted a charger for my phone. Says I to meself, How is it I have been charging my phone the whole day, yet the charger that I just saw was never touched. I then put two and two together and wondered could that be the reason my cell phone wasn't charging with my sis last Sunday. I was trying in vain, but to no avail. My charger wouldn't budge. Firstly I'll be seeing Maleficent. Review can be found here. Just want that quote so bad. haahah. While on my way over to meet Brendan, this jeep was turning into North Circular Road from Ballybough Rd., He was turning onto North Circular Road, while the pedestrians was still at amber. In fact just going onto Amber. I was nearly knocked down. So I pointed at the traffic light for the Pedestrian gesturing them that they are wrong. Also but seperarlty while I was checking into Cineworld, as my phone is on the slow side, I decided to go ahead and checkin via Foursquare. Foursquare, however, has introduced a new app. SO with this app, I am now able to see if a friend on my Foursqaure is at a particular location WITHOUT actually checkin. SO I saw that Brendan S was at the Outhouse. So I decided to head their and have a look. Low and behold I saw that Brendan was at the Outhouse. Twas great to see him. Brendan O' F thou had been stood up by his date. So I jokingly said "Oh this is your date, you could do better". hahaha. So I then headed onto Maleficient. When I got to the screen, I noted that the film hadn't even started let alone the trailers, or ads. I even had to ask if I was in the right screen. It so happens that the clerk when I was getting the ticket, actually gave me a later time. Eitherway, I was able to briefly see Brendan back at the Outhouse. I got my green tea. Beautiful as ever. I then met Brendan O' F at the cinema to see 22 Jump Street. Review here. So after the film, I dropped Brendan to his Luas stop. I then decided to do my cycling route I use to do, when I was cycling. It brought fond memories of Meetups to Cornucopia. The Vegetarian Meetups I used to go to. As I was feeling quite low today, I had told Brendan before he got on the Luas that I like listening to all forms of music NOT the same, but a VARIETY of music, such as pop, dance, etc., I exclaimed to him depends on my mood. Well while on my way home, I was listening to Andrea Rieu. Which helped my mood to a certain degree.

22 Jump Street
Two cops are tasked with an arduous but most comedic task yet. They are to go under cover to find who's selling drugs or whatever when one student is found dead. Smidt(Hill) and Jenko(Tatum) are sent back to "You two sons of b!tche$ are going to college". Twas quite an interesting movie. I wouldn't say the best, but at the same time the worse. Here's are some of the highlights. In one of the scenes, Maya(Stevens) and Smidt are together siting peacefully. Maya is doing an Art's Major. They are in front of two Stone Structures against each other. She stats simply that a person could be leaning against the other person for "Support". I found that quite light heart warming. Another quote whereby Smidt was saying to Jenko when the two were apart, there friendship and partnership was heavenly and severely tested, Smidt describes himself as the "flower grew out of the seed". I found it to be of interest and quite euphoric. However, Gays and LGBTs communitys and citizens will be very happy that my precious hottie Tatum, I'm referring to btw. haahah, stood up for the LGBT when he states "Man, its 2014," HE continued to saying That "Homosexual is ok, Gay is OK, etc., Tatum was referring to a scene when he was accused of being a "faggot". Loyalty was heavily tested and was so in the spot light.
