Diary 31st July 2015

Well so far its been an exhausting day for the legs arlite. hahaha. It started off when I realised that I went to bed too late. Was 7am, it was. hahaha. What delayed me in going to bed in the first place, I was uploading my +Puppys Stanescu to +Twitter. Some tweets weren't going through. I was baffled. I did a testing in both my gstanescu84 and the puppys. The Puppys still wasn't working. So I failed to understand. So I googled it, and it actually was that I needed to add my number. So when I added my number, it started to work out I was to meet Mom for 11am. that's less than 4hrs sleep. So I met up. Mom left her car and we got the bus in. We were to get my Birth Cert OFFICIALLY translated by a Translater in Ormond Quay. So we first headed to An Post which I didn't realsie there was a branch there, hahaha and got a Postal Order. We then headed next door to get a bite to eat. I had a beautiful salad role. And APPLE. awwww.  We sat down at a bus stop and had a "picnic". hehehee. We then got a bus back to Dame St and had an Eddie Rocket's moment. On the way to get the bus home, We passed The Larder(Review here) where I had one of the first meetups of Pride 2015. haahah. We then headed on home. And I collected my bike. Then headed home. On the way home, on the bus, I was saying the name of the stop in Irish. A passenger overheard me, and complimented on my Irish. heheeh. He said it sounds like Gaeilge Tuiasceart.

Then afterwards I headed to meet Emil for to see Terminator: Genisys(Review here). Shortly beforehand, I met up with a few of the lads in Outhouse. heehh. The last time, I met Emil was for Seventh Son(Review here).

Ted 2

Well what a film. If you were looking comedy, you were in the right place. Plot was quite simple. Was lovely and fantastic. The film opens with Ted(McFalarne) marrying his girlfriend Tami - Lynn(BArth). A year later they are having marital problems with arguments etc., SO a girl at the checkout where Ted works, suggests a child. As Ted don't have a d**k, they will have to adopt or IV. So they attempt to jerk off Tom Brady(as himself) in order to get a sample. However that's not a success. So they attempt a different solution, which doesn't come with its own problems. When they apply for adoption, it brings up an equality issue in that Ted is a "property" according to the Commonwealth State of Massachusetts Government. So John(Walhberg) and Ted go to a hot shot lawyer who then refers them onto a Junior Lawayer Sam(Seyfried). The three go against Shep(Slattery) who is representing the State. Sadly as Sam says all they want is "one word: Justice", they don't get it. So then they travel from Boston to Patrick(Freeman) in New York City. While all this is going on, Ted's nemesis from the first film Donny, Donny has a proposition, whereby they purposely loose the court case and pull a few strings. When they get Ted, they then want to find out "what makes him tick" and produce this for every kid on the planet. So getting back to Ted himself, they are in Patrick's Office and Patrick abruptly says he can't represent them as Ted has not shown any "emotion" or "inspired people". That's what humans do. All Ted's done is broke laws etc., So with this in mind, Ted is in Comic-Con in New York City where he comes across his nemisis. So in a bid to knock him out for once and for all, Donny releases a string or something and a part of the Star Wars costume space ship falls on John. Donny was meant to have killed Ted. So John takes a bullet. Now all of this going on, Patrick sees this on TV and represents them. So Ted is now on the eyes of the law a "personhood". So in reply to a TV Anchor's question: "Is there anything you want to say, Ted", Ted asks for Tami's hand in marriage: "Tami, will you marry me".

So to sum up, I was glad that they cut down on the use of drugs. I was totally disgusted with this in Ted, the first one. I was a bit apprehensive in seeing this, film, Ted 2. However was recommended in going so. GLad now I took aboard the recommmendation. Plenny of sexual references alrite, and very glad its LGBT friendly, hahaah.

Diary 29th July 2015

Well what a day it was. Oh my. Like just wow. I perhaps maybe coy or blowing my own trumpet, but my aim is to get Irish Citizenship so that I can have a "voice" in the next General Election, due 2016 to be precise February.

So with this in mind, I headed to my folks to start the administration process of gathering documentation, On the way, I was taking pics of my babes - hahah hardly the +Inflatables Stanescu or +Puppys Stanescu Awww but the trees and flowers.

Following is requirements to apply for the Citizenship of the Republic of Ireland:


  • 3 Proof of Residency for 5 Years in the State
  • 3 Months Bank Statements of the last 6 months
  • Copys of Birth Cert(and if in OTHER language, translate and COPY that too)
  • Copies of Passport pages(The main page in color)
Now I spent about 2hrs or so on printing etc., I was getting extremely nerving when I couldn't find any proof of residency in 2011. You see as one of a classic quote from a film says "let me tell you a story", When I moved out of the family home, I was going through homophobia, and hence didn't want any part of the family tree. So I decided to go back to my birth name Georgian Stanescu. I had been using George Coffey, which is the Irish name or as me Pops would say: "Foster name". So the reason I bring this up, is that some of my bills surmise this. In that they's on my bill heads etc which is a big no no for the application. So Dad suggested I get the Solicitor to help me out of this mess, until Mom suggested use the college as in NCI, when I was there from 2004-2009 and 2010 for the HDip. 

So while I was doing all the printing, I was also trying to figure out with my pops, sort out the bike,, as in the "puncture". So Dad came to the conclusion that it was the valve causing the puncture or the air letting out. So I've to go to the bike shop tomorrow, to try and get it sorted. All that was going through my mind, costs are mounting etc., 

So that said, I set on my merry way. I headed home first to get ready for the cinema. It was my intention to see +Terminator Genisys (Review here). I first popped me head into Outhouse to have a looksie. Lar had mentioned that my accent has been getting "sharper" and hence we both "got lost in translation". So then I headed to the film. hahaah

Diary 28th July 2015

Well what a day to start. hahaah. I got a letter from the Department of Social Protection where I get my income ie the dole from. I was to go for a group session this morning for seeking a job. I then headed on my merry way. I only realised last night that I can't use my bike as its been punctured. So I'll have to walk. So after a bit of struggle I set off on my merry way.

When I arrived, it was further than I thought. So I signed myself in by giving my name and filling a form. There was a group presentation on when I arrived. I was asked to wait. It was my expectation that I wait for the presentation. So when the presentation was finished our names were called out those that was waiting with me. And they all headed home. I expressed my disappointment with them, they just fobbed me off or dismissed me. What else would ya expect. hahaah.

So then afterwards, I decided to head by the NCP(New Communities) the place where my Mom and I went last year, to help me with a dilemma. hahaha. I basically wanted to find out exactly if I need the SAME company ie UPC for 5 years, Electric Ireland for 5 years etc.,et c., He said no, you can mix and match, as I have changed companies in the past I thought that'd wouldn't help.

I then headed to get my dole and put it in my bank acc. On the way, I encountered a sign post "the wholefood company". So I said I'd check it out. I was delighted to see BUCKETS of vegan prods. hehehe.

Mom rang to say she was calling down to me to bring us my sis and I out for Chinese. Twas lovely and scrumptious. So we ended up in their place having our bite. We ate and chat. We welcomed them home from holidays. Mom and Dad went to Nancy's(Reggie's wife) and to Maura Farrells. Mom then left us home. My sis was too tired. So I didn't head to her place. heeheh

Diary 26th July 2015

Again I wasn't able to get a good quality of sleep. So I got up slightly earlier than scheduled. Was recording King of Queens. When I realised after this that the recordings were NOT as expected, I was mad. So I said I'D drop everything and got up and set off to PC World to get my new USB Drive and the USA Clothing from Penney's. I had planned on getting em at 5pm ie leaving at 5pm, hwoever it wasn't to be. So I set off at 3ish.

Next as I hopped on my bike, I realsied there was a puncture. I was so sure and still could be that somebody punctured, I ain't sure. I will have to ask em Pops.

So I set off walking instead. I was gonna cycle on a puncture, however I then remembered that the last time I did so, I would have to get a NEW Wheel altogether costing me over €20. So I said I'd just walk.

So I brought my Rainbow Umbi ie Umbrella, hahaah. Just as I was nearing PC World, Umbi, wouldn't stay up, I was quite baffled and still am. I then wanted a pic of a display in Arnotts of a large Magnum. Sammy 2(phone) wouldn't work. I restarted, didn't restated. I was surprised. the battery couldn't have gone. It was at 39%. So was baffled. IT eventually worked and got to get a pic of the Silver Magnum ice cream display. awwww.

So then onwards to PC World, got the USB Stick. Then onto Penneys' in O' Connell St. More than delighted with it. Was looking for USA clothing, not one was to be seen. heheheh. So I got other stuff.

So I came back and recorded two episodes of Knots Landing. And lo and behold it WORKED. I was so overwhelmed and delighted. The USB stick was the MAIN reason, for not getting any news since last Wed. Now anyone who knows me, should know I easily  get ticked off or pissed off if I don't get my daily dose of News - hahahaha.

I literally couldn't get outta of bed. So I just stayed on for every two hours. I was due to go to the Cineworld Craicheads to see Inside Out. I couldn't make that, then I had planned afterwards to see Terminator again, again I couldn't make that. Then I was also due go to the monthly event Steam in the Boilerhouse. I'll attempt it next month as well as the two Dublin Gay Events in bars.

So I just got up for about an hour to see if I could free up my box, ie the Sky Box. So I recorded an episode of Who Do You Think You Are on my new USB Stick I got the other day, however even for an hr long show it don't work. So I'll have to try again at a later stage with another one ie purchasing a new one.

Jurassic World

Plot was quite simple actually. hahaha. I found it very good actually. In that with the dinosaur actions. The plot being a new theme park is opened. However the dinosaurs are actually Genetically Modified. IT gets a bit too scientific for my liking. So then one of the Dinosaurs a Mother of a ...... escapes, and causes havoc. One of the creators ie the scientists is asked what components was created to make the dinosaur. They fail to answer the question, however it is then soon realsied that it is a Raptor. There were three Raptors that Owen(Pratt) was "socialising" or rearing, something like that. Then came along Claire(Howard) who is a sister to Karen(Greer) is asked to look after Zack(Robinson) and Gray(Simpkins), who is a Business woman and simply don't have time for both Zack and Gray. Human tragedy brings all the family closer together. I enjoyed the film emmensley. The sound effects and CGI WOW, especially when "more teeth" were required in that Claire brought along another Mother of a......and the original was brought down by a Sea Monster. So yeah it was fantastic. ON the edge of me seat.


Diary 24th July 2015

I literally couldn't sleep. I've noticed a pattern in the last few days whereby I sleep for about 2 or 3 hours then I get restless in bed, naked or not naked, I get very restless. Then eventually about an hour or so, I sleep. What could be the prob is that I eat the food from my Aunt(Nun), and the takeout, all in one go. Then Tea and Coffee within an hour. This could be the problem. So we'll see.

So after the TV aspects, I headed to my sis. We chatted for a bit. Before I went to my sis, I popped  into Chopped a new health store. heheeheh. I wanted to head to see Chopped. It had opened several months ago. hahhaa. I just meant to go in. And today I was given the chance. eheheh. I was disappointing thou that its only a Restaurant mainly, and not a health store as I thought. hahaah

So afterwards, I headed off to town to start on my birthday shopping. hahaahah. My first port of call was to find my self Singlet/Unitard. I first headed on over to Glamour World. The most customer friendly guy. Was very impressed. Noticed a gay couple or at least two gay friends, or at the very very least gay. ahhaah. Never seen that before. heeheh. So after failing to find it, I headed to Good Vibrations where I asked again. He didn't know what I was talking about, however he did point to one. And so I was delighted and got it. hahahaa. I then headed to PC World, to go and find a device to charge my phone ie known as Charge Block or something like that. There was such however ridiculously expensive of €54. Perhaps for Christmas I'll reconsider. Then as time was moving on, I then headed to Penneys' where I did the rest of my shopping. As I had a bit of time on my hand, I decided to hop into H+M. As the last time, I had taken a pic a few months ago of a regout I wanted to buy, however I didn't have the cash. Their size system is quite confusing. hahaah. Then I headed onto Outhouse where I was welcomed with open arms from Ronan, to Michel to David etc., etc., Then afterwards I headed onto the cinema to go and see Jurassic World(Review here). hahaah. I had intended on seeing it several weeks ago when it was originally released.

Diary 23rd July 2015 - MY BIRTHDAY

Well what a quiet interesting day, this turned out to be. I had initially planned to go and sleep the whole day til the movie tonight with Barry. Then I said I'd go and do a bit of clothes shopping etc.,etc., Then my dreams and nightmares got in the way and said fuck it, gonna sleep it out the whole day. I messaged Barry as I don't have his num. It was my intention to go and call it off so that I could sleep the day away. However, when I messaged me being the nicey nicey guy, I asked him if he was at the cinema or on his way. He was actually THERE at the cinema, very early. So I said I'd go and head off and meet him. So then I met him for to see Terminator: Genisys(Review here). Well when I arrived, I was well chuffed, Barry had given me a birthday gift. As he puts it, "I love getting gifts for people", which I well agree. heeheh. So I immedicalty without FULLY looking at the teddy bear, I immateality called it Barry. hahaahha. The "human" Barry was very chuffed,  but when I saw that it could be a Skunk or a Badger, I would be inclining to say that Barry is a smelly, as a skunk usually produces a smell or something. hahaha. So then just after the film, Barry told me(ahem, the human - hahaahah) that Brendan O' F, had texted him to tell me to ring him after the film.

So I then said my goodbyes, although Barry himself was disasspointed that I was late or whatever, that he wasn't able to talk before hand. So we left it at that. I headed to meet O' Farrell in McD's as he puts it, in Grafton St., Brendan treated me to a lovely Berry Cherry Smoothie. However the night was marred in disappointment in that there was a drunk guy. O' Farrell decides to go and be a gent to him in that asking him if the guy was alrite. O' Farrell should have left it at that. The guy was being very vulgar and apparently racist - to a certain degree when he saw O' Farrell's Irish Rugby top. Then we left it at that. Brendan was telling me that a new Political Party was being launched. Known as Identity Ireland. He went to ask the cops, one of them dismissed him and the other said "I have a life".

So I headed on home. I stopped by Midnight Express(Review here), to get me a Veggie Pizza. heeheh.

Milano's, Baggot St

I popped along with a group of Vegetarians and some Vegan friends. Although the food was questionably delicious, the staff thou was highly questionable. I was with a group of about 20 or so if even that. Clearly they couldn't handle the amount. Yet the group in Grand Canal Dock after a theatre production, last time, the staff there were very much able to handle the crowds. SO getting back to Baggot St., I first started off with Bruschetta Originale "Milano". I was wanting a vegan version of this. The person opposite me who is a vegan, was helping. I was enquiring with her a few times. I asked the waiter if he knows its vegan, he didn't know the meaning of the word. The bruschetta was lovely. No question. Next was the main which was Veneizan. Now this is a pizza. I assumed it was vegetarian. I only picked it because .30c was being donated to a good cause in Honduras or somewhere. The pizza itself was alrite. The crust was quite hard. Next was onto the the dessert, which was Leggera Sorbet. This was lovely. heheheeh. Out of the whole three, I deliciously enjoyed the Bruschetta. I then enjoyed a delicious Mint Green Tea, that my mate on my previous outing enjoyed. It was heaven. mmmmm

Diary 22nd July 2015

Well what a day, it was. Twas of a positive nature. I went to bed earlier like I say, I wanted to try and get a "human" hours. ahhha. So I had set the alarm for 1,15, however I couldn't sleep right to the alarm, so I got up slightly earlier. And besides, my timing wouldn't have  been on time, as I needed Fair City, and of course the dole.

So I got up and showered. Looked at TV ie Monday's news. I was amazed by the amount of Clashes that had occurred on my box in that NOT ONE of my News Bulletins got recorded let alone Fail with no space.

So I headed onwards to get my dole, then the bank, another booboo was made in that Meteor had taken their cash already, so that adds an extra week with no food. So I'll get their eventually. heeheh. I then headed to Scribbles to get a USB Drive, as I had reported yesterday that my previously died on me. Then headed to Tescos to get initially to get Bread, I saw Vegan bread or what I thought Vegan, and Vegan Washing up liquid. I was so happy with the washing up liquid, but disappointed with the bread, so I then headed to Ryan's Hardware to get a Mirror for to take pics in, but it wasn't to be.

So after all the busy morning, I came back to do a bit more of the news. So I then headed to my first Vegetarian Meetup of 2015. We were to meet in Milanos on Baggot St(Review here) which happens to be the place I used to work in. It was under a different name at the time Ciao Café. The last time I was at a vegetarian meetup was back in November of 2014 in Wagamas. We chatted and dined. I enquirerd about Delhi O' Delhi, and was saddened to learn of its demise. In that it is to be used for the Irish 1916 Centenary Celebrations. We also chatted about the sentient, I happened across an article on Facebook, whereby in New Zealand a Bill has passed whereby Animals are to be treated as to be having "feelings" otherwise known as "sentient". One of the members of the group was praising Govinda's on Abbey St., So I thought to stick my oar, in and let em know of the homophobic treatment in Govindas(Review here.) They listened attentively, which I kinda was surprised. Considering I hadn't been there since LAST year, hahaah.

Oh and throughout the WHOLE day, I was experiencing some back pain. Even at the meetup in Milanos - the above, Everytime, I laughed, I got a sudden surge like the time I experienced that ended me in the Emergency Room. This was a few years ago, when I was experiencing alot of stress, and my sis and I were looking at Mrs. Browns. I got a mother of pain. This was exactly like that.

Diary 21st July 2015

Well today, it was my plan to get up for 1pm as in try to get to the "human" hrs hahaha.

However just before I went to bed last night, I was trying to copy over files from my USB Drive that is recorded onto via the PVT. However things weren't to be. So I restarted Lappy into Safe Mode, thinking it'd help. As my McAfee AntiVirus wasn't helping. It is setup that everytime a Removable Device was inserted, it would scan for viruses. SO I disabled McAfee that didn't help all things at all. So for the life of me, couldn't understand. I didn't even through the device around or anything. Yet it acted as if I did throw it around. So then for the night while I was asleep, I used Piriform's Recuva to try and recover the files "lost". While I was with my sis today, I attempted to do Stage 2 which was to transfer from the Drive over to the computer. I later learned that that wasn't possible. So to this stage, I still don't understand. So it looks like a new USB drive is on the cards.

So then I just stayed on in bed until my sis was ready for my visit to her. heeheh but as result, I wasn't able to empty my Box ie the Sky Box. So I just had to skip teh news etc., for today's ie the Tuesday's news.

Shortly before thou, I rang my sis to find out whats the story. So I left my phone on loud so that I'd hear the call. As it happens, It wasn't required. However that said, I have decided that I CANNOT ever go up to their house UNLESS I have food in my apt, as I for the past few weeks have been getting vibes from both of them. I simply cannot afford food. It's that simple. So with this in mind, I decided against the offer that my ma had offered me, which was to go out with my sis and herself for a grocery. I don't have the cash to buy grocerys, and I wasn't gonna let my ma pay with the vibes I've been getting. So I just headed to sleep.

So then I got up with my painful aching, but I wasn't gonna let 7 down the drain. hahaah. So I got up and headed to Cineworld for CinemaLive for to see Andre Rieu. I was surprised to learn that he is 65. He don't even look it. haahah. Great arousal of performance. Great interaction. One thing that blew my mind was that my home country Romania was deeply integrated in a performance. The guy who played a role from Romania,  George played a piece that I recognised from being in Italy and also several times. I'm talking about the group of Native Indians or whatever ya call em, hahaha. It was heaven. Great to see my home country tradition as well. heeheh. They also played a tribute to the late James Last, who passed away recently. My Dad would have known him very well. Had his albums etc., I shed a tear seeing him, and for me knowing Diarmuid Mac Adhastair aka Seamus Mhicil Tom
from Ros na Run, thinking about him as well.

Just about before the movie started, you'd never guess who contacted me on Viber. heeheheh. Its like my wish is so far coming back. It was the guy who was in NCI when I was doing the HDip in Web Technologies, the time my boyfriend broke up with me, back in 2010. It was the same guy whom I came out to a few weeks after that, he'd have cups of teas etc., in my place we'd meet up etc. Then all of a sudden, he disappeared ie cut contact, literately. So I just assumed, it was because I'm gay or something. Well as it happens, it was because of his family issues. heheeh.

So on the way home, I decided to pop along to Anatolia, however they were close, so I headed to Midnight Express instead(Review here).

I got up slightly later than scheduled for my sis as my constipation was really bad today. Never have I seen the likes. It took 20 mins BEFORE going to bed which was half 11 this morning and 20 mins when I got up for my sis, hence why I was delayed. The constipation was caused by my Vegan Muesli.

So then I got ready and headed off to my sis. heehehe. My folks had come home from the wedding of my mom's friend's daughter to drop off a chinese. We had met the daughter a few times if even that. To the point as I said to my self and my sis, that she could be considered a "stranger", as we haven't even seen her, everytime her mother being my mom's friend, came to visit us at Christmas or whatever. Even living at home, we hardly saw the daughter. When we all went down to the mother's place in Ashborne, we'd hardly see her. We only saw her once or twice if even that. heheheh.

So then my sis and I, were looking at Pinnochio(Review here) and I noted and asked her a "stupid" question of which I was asssured welcomly ie it ain't a stupid question. I asked why do animals have tails. Not only does it keep their asses clean ie from infections etc., but it tells of the physiciatry or the mental state. I was quite amazed. And reminded her that New Zealand passed a law or a Bill, whereby Animals have "Feelings" otherwise known as Sentient. She went on to explain if the dogs have their tails up there happy otherwise if its down there not well mentally etc.,etc.,

Diary 11th July 2015

Today I was due to go to see TWO films: Song of the Sea(Review here) and Terminator: Genisys(Review here). However again, as I didn't sleep too well, I wasn't gonna bother. BUT my sis called down to me an hour earlier. Now while it wasn't ideal, I am actually glad she did. Not only she have pain issues, which was the reason she came earlier BUT also, my mental health was somehow distorted towards the negative side of things. While I was at the second film, I said to myself, "Man am I glad am back at Cineworld. cept the FINANCE". I really missed it. So again, like I said the last time, My sis came down to me when I was mentally under the weather. And I appreciate that. heehehe. Bottomline, if my sis hadn't popped down, chances are I wouldn't have gone out. I had told her last nite on FB that she was welcome to pop down. However she did tell me, that if she wasn't sure if she'd be able to pop down. Before I went to the first film, I popped into Pennys to see if I could get MATERIAL shorts ie trackeis kinda like. However time was not on my side, so I just headed to the cinema. I also bumped into Cineworld Craicheads namely Eoin and his crew. They were after seeing Ted 2. There meetup was today. I was due to see it. But I wanted Terminator BADLY. ahahaha.

So when I got back home, I showered again my thanks to my sis for such an inspiration. Again all a person who is going under mental health stress(each one is different, I speak of ME), is seeing that person in this case my sis.

So then afterwards, I went to get my lunchie which consists of caesar dressing for my sandwich. Despite it telling me to SHAKE before use, of which I did, It kept spewing as if it were Coke or something. Which I don't get n still don't get. So I came to the conclusion that I never refrigerated it. Not sure. hahaha

The most important downside though it was very LONG drawn out. While the music and the Irish accent was really heart warming and lovely oh and me being the MUSIC man, ahhaah, was absolutely lovely. It was really sad, though when the mother appeared at the end. I felt I was that character of the son Ben.

Diary 10th July 2015

Well what a day it turned out to be. Just before I headed to bed, I realsied that the plan me sis and I had done out the other day relating to finance, which I have outlined already would not actually work. As I failed to collect the dole on Thurs BEFORE the Sky and Credit Union payments that is required today Friday. The plan me sis had in mind was that €260 goes straight to bank, €105 for INCREMENTS. Now when we were doing the calculations we decided that Sky and Credit Union for NEXT WEEK, not today. However as I didn't collect the dole and hence the bank, I got extremely anxious. And also to top that if the word "Unpaid" were to appear on my statement, I would forget about going to cineworld to see the latest Terminator series: Terminator: Genisys. and just head to bed. So I got up with going cautiously to the Post Office of collecting the dosh. Then onto the bank. Now in the mean time, my mate rang me to know what my plans are. He knew I was going to see the movie. However with my mind completely elsewhere, I decided against it. So when I arrived at the bank, did my usual business and only noticed that today was the 10th NOT the 12th, in which I thought today was Sky's date. AS I said above that if I see the word "Unpaid" that I would not go to the cinema. However as I didn't see it, I would go ahead. HOWEVER, as I didn't sleep at all last night with the amount of twisting and turning over what to do and THOUGHTS of me being worthless etc., I decided not to go out in the end, so I slept until midnight 11th July  ie tomoz. One thought thou, I did have was whereby I cycle to the Post Office, and park it at the Day Hospital of St. Vincent's Hospital known as Iona, and I stop the traffic on the lane nearest the path just OVER the bridge.. I then tell the traffic to go over, like literately over. The wheels wouldn't be touching me unless they are changing lanes, yeah that'd be a problem alrite. Another one being whereby I go to the outhouse and literally break down. It has happened in the past whereby, I go to the Outhouse, and simply sit at a table literally. And there would be a group of people chatting asking me how I am etc., I would be distant with them big time.

DIary 9th July 2015

Well what a night I endured. So it has now come the time for me to warn yee all of the GROTESQUE dream of Animals.

BEGINNING

I am in a farm environment. I am trying to get this cow off my bike. Which its attached onto a wood something like that. His legs were touching me or there was something that was on me I felt uncomfortable. Now as I understand I think the cow was dead or something I can't remember that bit. However in order for the "thing" to get off touching me, I got a few fireworks stuff and stuffed the fireworks in the cows ass. When it went off, the imaginable occurred. I bet you I'll be scarred. It splattered everything, brains, etc.,etc., body parts. yaddy yaddy yadda. Something warm was touching my butt. I didn't want to look what it was. So I moved forwards to try and get away from it.

END

So with the above dream, ever since I became involved heavily in Veganism, ie looking up videos etc., etc., of the stuff which I'm not gonna get into incase it damages yourselves and more so triggers me, I've been getting these kinds of dreams.

So with that dream over, I got up late, not bothered getting my dole. I woke up to several missed phonecalls, well 3 from my Mom. So she popped down to me. I got up at 9pm, I was disappointed to learn that the iMAX of Jurassic Park has been taken down. There was a time that Cineworld's iMAX used to leave some films for a very long time. They don't do it anymore.

Diary 8th July 2015

Well today was a quite day. It first started off with me NOT sleeping. ahahah. I was watching TV then after awhile, I was getting ready after a call from Mom, to pop up to Mom n Dad to show the pics from Sunday's meetup. Just as I was heading up, I encountered my landlord Franky. We just chatted in general. He mentioned a very interesting thing thou. One of the tenants friend, is As he puts it "eccentric" ie a bit abnormal. I was intrigued in what way. He says that she's very "hippish" style ie like exactly the time I was with Todd in Govindas(Review here) on Abbey Street. I went to explain to Franky that its possibly she's a Vegan or perhaps a Raw Vegan. Like I insisted I told him that I'm a Veggie. He says no even weirder, So I went backwards and forwards to staying Vegan. So then he told me a time, when she screamed that he was about to kill a snail. So she put the snail put it elsewhere. Likewise he was explaining she its ONLY plants NOTHING else. Ain't that what Vegan's eat. ONLY plants. hahaha

So then afterwards, Franky headed off, Then my key got stuck in terms of turning in the door. I had forgotten my cell as I needed it to show my folks the cars. However the key wouldn't turn as it was bent. The reason it was bent was my sis and I went to Tesco in Fairview for grub and it was that I left the keys behind, my sis retrieved them, however the customer who hadn't seen the keys but their groceries on top of my keys and bending my keys. So since then it hasn't been working right. So MORE money I've to pay to get it cut. But at €3.50 I think i'll b grand. I'll just try and keep the one I have NOW.

So then I headed onto Mom n Dad's. Showed Mom and Dad the pics. Dad attempted to flatten my key and likewise I did. I put the key under the HEAVY armchair. And my body weight(which ain't much these days) contributed tot he weight onto the key, so the key so far so good is flattening now.

Diary 7th July 2015

Well today was quite different. hahaaha. Quote from Dane DeHann(BABE) from Amazing Spiderman 2: "I don't know how, I don't know why", but it just was. The day started off with me struggling to get outta bed in time for the dole. So I just skipped it. ahahah. So my sis came down to me. She was doing her donwlonaiding, which I don't personally mind. We were both crunching numbers as to how to resolve me finance issue. I'm up to me eyes in debt. So following is whats gonna be done for the two weeks.

Income
STATE €265*2 = €530
What I have             €30
TOTAL                  €560

Expenditure
AIB Debt(FORCEFULLY)                         €51
Rent(for TWO Weeks)(NEXT WEEK)    €260
INCREMENTS Debt(THIS)                     €105
Sky(NEXT)                                                 €46
Loan from Credit Union(NEXT)                €30
TOTAL                                                     €492

Income - Expenditure
€560 - €492 = €68

So as you can see, like my sis says:  I have 68 to "play around with" for two weeks. I was really worried as I wanted to see Jurassic Park and Terminator Genisys in iMAX. Now obviously I can see em both in 2D or 3D for FREE and have NO FOOD, but I like to "celebrate" an iMAX movie considering I'm paying to get in, so why NOT. hahaha

Now onto WEEK 2

Following is the plan of payment of Week 2.

Rent I'll be paying in Week 2 NOT this week, but NEXT Week.

Hoping the above will help me. heheheh.

I meant to actually put down that Mom called down to myself and my sis for a takeout. heheeh. We went to Nicos down the road for me, where I enjoyed a delicious Chips. The Kebab was alrite as the salady stuff was VERY hard and the Curry chips they were very sparingly on the Curry sauce. So not sure what the hell's going on. hahaha

Then I started the long haul of my Android Apps Updating. Things were quite unusually slow today in terms of the Backup on the Lappy and Sammy being slow, which is quite normal, now that I think about it. ahhaah. So now I started the Android Updating procedure around 4am, its now almost 12hrs and still updating apps. So yeah quite slow. hahah. I guess its to do with many factors including the amount of apps installed etc., etc., So now it'll be time for me to do the final upgrade. hahaha. The most update I've been looking forward for several months, in particular since Christmas. Lollipop has arrived on my Android device of Sammy 2. When I changed Carriers ie Networks Operators from Three to Meteor, I thought that delayed things. After several hours of downloading updates of Android Apps, I started the Android Lollipop Update. It failed, so I put it down to the space, so I made space on it the memory and then it still failed, so I let the battery get higher charge. So still failing I continued to search Google and saw that some are saying, to Wipe the Cache Partition via Recovery AND/OR to try the Upgrade again.

Well what a day, I had today. It was unreal. hehheehe. I had two minds of whether to go to today's Meetup. I decided to head to the meetup. The meetup was being held in Terenure College for the Vintage Cars exhibition. The minute I left my aprt, it literally pelted out of the heavens. It continued right until I arrived at Drumcondra, I was constantly thinking of my +Puppys Stanescu Sammy as I had him on the ground and was worried that the rain would get it, and his ass would get wet. hahaahah. However thankfully he didn't. hehheeheh.

So then I went onwards to meet the group. I met up with Vinny the group organizer and others. It was amazing. I went round taking pics etc., Like seeing cars of when Dad was born, the infamous Austin and the Garda(Irish Police Force). It was unreal. There was this guy selling sunglasses, his mannerism not the best, he just wanted to get rid of them, so he offered me to take 7 for €5. Great bargain. ahahhaa. Throughout the exhibition there was music playing of the '60s etc., music. Fabulous it was. My battery of the Digital Camera, ran out, so I was using the incombant phone that everytime, I kept seeing a black screen everytime I wanted to take pic. It was must infuriating. But was done eventually ie got the pics. heheheh. So then I rang the organiser to let him know of my plans of which was to get a bite to eat then head on home as BOTH my phone and the Digi(Digital Camera) was gone too. So I told him, I head on off home. Was fabulous. heheheh.

Diary 4th July 2015 - 4th July Holiday(USA)

I was struggling to get up in time for Todd to see Minions at Cineworld(Review here). So eventually I met up with him. heheheh. On the way after the film, I noted that there was a protest of Abortion of Pro-Life or Choice. He mentions that he's never gonna have any issue with abortion. And I says Its none of the govt business etc.,etc., and he says exactly. heheheh

We then dispersed and I headed onto Mom and Dad's however, my sis messaged me saying that she forgot her drive for her films. So she wanted entertainment. As time was not on my side, I hurridly went to my sis and had a wee chat. ehehhe. I told her, yesterday, when I was going to the toilet, that on the way, I noted that there was a blanket that I bought down in Waterford in Pennys for €25. And was wondering why it was so "cotteny" look, but as it turned out it was actually Patch Jnr's paws. awwwww. What a laugh we both had. hahahaha.

So then onwards and upwards to Mom and Dad's. eheheh. I knew it was fairly late. I went to tell em about Mamma Mia(Review here), yesterday. So after a short visit, I then headed onto home. Before thou, I was saddened to hear of Silvia's crash she was involved in. My sis had told me as well that she sent the two Liz's an email, despite me knowing about Jane's birthday. I had sent Liz an FB message on Thurs, when I welcomed Mom and Dad back home. In the meantime Liz had gotten back to me, and I completely forgot to mention it to Dad. So when my sis told me that she had sent an email for dad to Liz, I said crap, I was meant to tell them about the FB message.

Milanos, Grand Canal Dock

My friend and I went here after a performance. The staff were a pleasure to be served by. The names on the menu were very much Italian after all its an Italian chain. heheeh. I first started off with a dish with tomatoes in a circular shape with Pesto on it and a Buffalo or Bula in Italian Cheese. Oh it was heaven. Then it was time for the main course. This by far was delicious especially the Garlic Bread. I was offered this with a Al Forne. Again I can't quite recall the names of the dishes. Then afterwards, for dessert I had a Tiramasu and a scrumtpious Super Fruit Green Tea. Awww it was heaven.

Mamma Mia

Well what a performance. I travelled along with my mate to the concert. It was fab. The choreography was mind blowing. The theatre productions is based on the Abba songs. The play is abotu a girl Sophie(Niamh Perry) who is marrying Sky(Justin Thomas). However her longing to "be known" ie doesn't know who she is, is bothering her. So she invites 3 possible Fathers, Sam Carmicheal(Richard Standing), Bill Austin(Michael Beckley) and Harry Bright(Mark Jardine). Sophie's  Mom Donna Sheridan(Sara Poyzer) is a bit hot and bothered, in that she doesn't want her daughter to grow up like the way she did. I was moved thou when Donna's Mom "disowned" her for having a child OUTSIDE marriage. So Donna's lifetime friends from Donna and the Dynamite: Tanya(Shubna Gulati - from Coronation Streeets's Sunita) and Rosie(Sue Devaney). So after all the great craic, and laughter, they did a rounding rendition of Mamma Mia and an assortment of other Abba songs. So overall, fantastic performance, brilliantly well done.

Diary 3rd July 2015

Well what a day it turned out to be. heheheeh. I was with my folks yesterday, whom Dad made me realsie the Mamma Mia concert is actually TONGIHT. hehehe. Before heading off on my way to see Mamma Mia, I bumped into my sis, who was invited for Dinner with the folks. hahaha. So I set on my merry way to meet Todd whom I bought the tickets for his birthday which was in April which is actually the last time, I saw him. ahhaah for the Easter Rising Commemoration in 1915. So we met up for Mamma Mia(Review here). SOS I put for my sis, Dancing Queen for my pops when I was gonna sing it for him in The George, however it never matierailised as they never called my name out. I remember learning Super Trouper in Keyboard School of Music in Clontarf and Mamma Mia on Keyboard in Glasnevin, where I was told its the most complex song to do on a music instrument. So then after the performance, we went to look for something to eat. hehehe. We went to Milano(Review here). On the way a guy commented on Todd's beard making him his "Idol", ahahaha. Great laugh. Todd was telling me he gets it all the time. heheheh. So then after Milano's we went out and low and behold, it poured out of the heavens. So we got a taxi back. I got out behind Centra in Fairview and he headed on home. Before I met Todd, I was asked to step aside, as there was a film set for which I later learned was Pierce Brosnan's film. Todd knows it begins with IT....

Just about as I was heading to bed, I was checking my FB notifications from the Pages. In this case Ireland AM. I had written a piece on a "debate", I had seen with the government of Ireland now having ON-Spot fines for cyclists like the way Drivers have. So if a cyclist is caught being wreckless or cycling through a red light, they will be fined, if of course there is a cop there. Anyways, I was checking, next thing FB logs me out, and DOES NOT LET ME BACK IN, unless I complete a checkin. SO first FB warned the link I was sharing onto my timeline which was Ireland AM may be malware. I ignored it, so FB says you cannot log in until you complete this "Checkpoint". I was to download Kaspersky Online Scanner from Facebook. I was immediaclty suspicious. I checked my Emails, to see was any of my mates affected or whatever. Nothing. I disregarded their "Kasperseky", It would not let me through. Kasperseky although is a highly well known and high regard Security company, still I was suspicious, considering I do have my own, McAFee. So anyways to make a long story short, I went ahead, as FB would not let me in full stop. hahaha.

Diary 2nd July 2015

Well I got up with a view of getting the errands that I was suppose to do the other day. I first got my dole. Then the bank. Earlier on in the day, when I checked the balance. I was in €128 in debt. Clearly my finances are not up to scratch. I had intended to Withdraw €70 from the savings and put into bank to do my increments. But now the €50 that my pops gave me, I've lost it, so yeah quite a shock. Whats even more, I compeltepyl forgot about WestWood, and to top that my Bank Maintenance fee is HIGHEST ever at €30. So for next week i'll need minimum €105 MINUS my rent etc., I then went to collect Floppy a new member of the +Puppys Stanescu 's family. Awwwww. While there, I was given another package which happens to belong to the guy who lives above me. I ain't his keeper, so I said to the clerk, that this package ain't mine. He assumed as its the same house.

Then I headed up to the folks.


"Bollicks" term used by Mom when she was describing my sis' phone. When I told her of my phone not the best.

Memory Block, got a fit of laughing when she told me that I had said on the phone: "where the hell are they"

REalsied that the Mamma Mia concert is actually TOMORROW, when Dad was looking at the tickets.

Before I went to sleep. I was trying to figure out how to get my "Social" life on my phone to work out. So I tried my sex phone, battery dead. And besides looking for the Wall plug 3 pin. Couldn't find it. So then I tried my Poddy. I was wanting my Checkin' apps ie Yelp, Google+, Facebook, and Swarm belonging to Foursquare. I went to download the Facebook app for to update it, it didn't work, then I uninstalled it. But that came as a big mistake as in, when I went to download again, it said I need to iOS 7 upwards. Now "let me tell you a little story". The reason, It would not update was it was wanting my OLD Email address and password. However since I changed my email address AND my password AND my name(I used to use George Coffey - due to my homophobes), AppleID locked me out compeltley. I contacted Apple via Email AND Telephone support. NOTHING. So I've lost all my €€€€€ worth Apps, Music. I was completely pissed off. So I moved FULL time to Android. I've never regretted since.
