Diary 4th December 2015

Twas an alrite day. Nothing major to report.

My day started off with meeting Mom to get new glasses. I got my eyes tested. My first port of call was to get my eyes tested at a machine. Then for further scrutiny. I then advised them of my eyes balls paining me when they go to do the air pressure. However because of the tears in the way and of course the cataracts, that I had to go and do the air pressure again.
ISIS enters my head once more when while being examined the eye obviously, we hear sounds and then the thought being she tells me to get undercover and not a eep outta me.

Then Mom treated me to a meal in Cornucopia. While there Mom and I were chatting hehehe, and I said I'd like to invite Mom into my life. heheheh and she replied by her saying inviting me into her life. I then said "oh you have been for 20 years" . hahha
Then I was trying to get water working, and I said to mom in front of waiter that he's taking the micky of me when he said to rub your hand in front of the machine. hahahah. I had hoped that Mom would get to see the LOVELY desserts they have. I have come to realise that I love Cornucopia's DESSERT NOT the main dishes. This is the SECOND time, I've left it behind. While there, I was due to get my Social Welfare back payments etc., however its with great regret(NOTHING new), that I didn't get it, still waiting. However my mental health ain't waiting. So my sleeves are their to hand. awwwww.

So then I came home and my sis was downloading. Then I headed on off to the cinema to go and see The Good Dinosaur(Review here). I decided to use the €80 I had left supposedly for Rent, but Dad's €400 will work for that for BOTH weeks. I then started my Christmas Shopping OFFICIALLY. hahaha. I got my sis her pressie. Then onwards to Pennys to get my Christmas Undies of which I couldn't get them MAINLY because of the wet weather.

So then I headed onto Outhouse. ehehehe. I learned that if Dinosaurs were NOT made extinct that Humans would not have been created. Thats such fascination. There were women screaming with laughter or whatever. I said to Jaimie, you can see why we don't like women, haahaha. David who works behind the counter was telling me, that his Crhstims is not as enjoyabel as it was a few years ago. As people die or waphtever or move on. Like his ideal chrisrtmas was when he'd invite pepoepl to his place or rwahtever and have a lash. However as people move on or wahtever, yeah you can see why.

Diary 27th June 2015 - Gay Pride 2015

Well today was the Annual Gay Pride Parade in Dublin's City Center. Today as I haven't been popular well regout wise like last year. So I wasn't gonna let that get in the way of celebrations. This year's Pride was slightly different on my side, in that, it was more PLANNED out.

I was due to attend 3 Meetups:

1. Pre-Pride Brunch
2. Pride Parade
3. Drinks After Pride

So I headed to The Larder(Review here). So then we had a nice lunch and brunch and talk, I seam to be the only guy dressed up to the nines. I had expected judging from Pavel the organiser of the Meetup, that I would be welcomed whether I be wearing Pink or whatever, Yet everyone dressed up as if it were a normal day. hahaah.

So then we all headed onto the Parade itself. I doned my Boa, however he kept falling apart, so I had to stow away my baby. awwww. We continued on walking. Bumped into Mike too dressed up as Robin. ahahaha. Then onwards to the actual parade. We got lost. Craig and I were lost, didn't know where they were. So in the end, we all met up and found each other. heheeheh. The Parade started in ernest. heheheh

Then the next meetup was at 6pm, so I wasn't gonna be hanging around Pride After Party for a few hours. So I headed to the Outhouse. I along the route bumped into Patrick. So I was chatting with Patrick along with Manuel from the DIGs group. He wasn't at the Pre-Parade Brunch. He joined us at the Parade. So I headed onto the Outhouse, where I came across various men, and some women and Trans people. Great INCLUSION vibe. I was chatting and chatting. and eating a glorious brown bread, butter, tomato(puree possible or squashed tomatoe) and Olive oil. mmmmm. It was heaven. I kept helping myself to em.

So then I headed for my next and more than likely last event of the day. I saw Pavel who also organsied this meetup. We waited for Gabriel, whom I hadn't met at all. He was inside getting a drink for himself.

Diary 6th August 2014

After staying up from watching TV VERY late into the early afternoon. I was about to get myself ready for bed, when I got a call from my Mom, I of course ignored, cause I REALLY NEEDED SLEEP. But that didn't stop her calling down. I in fact, was in bed. All the Inflatables were atop of me and one or two was at the Window. She started poking at them through my window(which I leave opened cause of the Flood last Friday). I didn't mind. But my head got up when she said "I can see your cell phone, I'm gonna take it." She used that as a means of getting me up. Which it did. hahaha. So when she got me up, as it happens it was a glorious day. Sunny and all. I got ready and headed off with Mom. WE had a meal in Green Land Café. Love their soup. Oooooh so scrumptious.

So I got ready for bed. I had intended to go to see films today, however as I was too tired, I just stayed on. I had the most freakiest of dreams.

Diary 1st August 2014

Well I've yet to sleep hahhaah. It was my plan to go to sleep after my appointment. BUT I have another event, as its the Bank Holiday weekend. heeheh.

The last time, I was up with me folks(same day, Sammy 2 was born - hahaaha), I had made an appointment for the dr. in relation with my legs complaining of a heavy feel ie constant need to have my legs elevated above me. Then my hearing, had gone down and last but not least my Left side cheek beings soar. To my surprise, when I had arrived, I checked in then eventually I was seen to. Here's whats so surprising thou.That he couldn't find anything wrong with me at all. I actually said to him, that am I becoming a hypercondriac(where one brings the symptoms on themselves or WANTING a particular item). So I requested a Blood Test which will be for next week.

So then I met Mom with a view of getting my glasses fixed AGAIN!!!!. So we got the bus in. Mom encouraged me to get my citizenship etc.c, So then after the glasses, We headed to meet Maureen. I decided to give Maureen a wee surprise. And what a reaction I got. I was in stitches. I literally just tapped her on the shoulder. And the reaction was just priceless. She literately turned around, in a statue pose with her phone in her hand. Now she obv got a surprise. yet you have da phone in your hand. hahaahah. What a laugh. So then the three of us headed to KC Peaches. I've been to the one on Dame St., I really love their food. The one on Nassau St., was no better. Totally amazeballs.

So then the two of us headed on to MobileCare to get a cover for my phone. Maureen thou headed on off to meet her Sis Colette.

After I got off the bus, I wanted to get cash from the Credit Union. For the night out Tomorrow night in particular.

Went to get my O2 Money card, I left behind in Panti. When I got the card, I wasn't sure of the number. Like why would I bother my barny in learning it off by heart. hahaha. So I got a bit anxious and figuring out a way to see if it were mine. So when I got back, I purchased a monthly subscription.  of Google Storage for $2 a month for 100GB. Not bad a price i says. As it happens it is mine. As I then logged onto my account, and saw that the transaction had appeared almost instantaneously.

Then FINALLY I got to go to sleep. heeheheh

Diary 6th July 2014

Well I got up nice and early. I had a few errands to do before going to my sis. My first errand was to go to Cineworld to see if my card was there, after(No surprise - I left it behind.(Yet again - no end to this. hahahaha). While on my way in, I had various thoughts on various issues, namely one area - LGBT. I simply don't fit in. I shan't be moving to New York on homophobic grounds but on the grounds of not fitting in. Last Saturday this was proven.
Another thought that came to me was having a heart attack and me in a ambulance. I sadly pass away. Nurse is found to have left me die cause of my sexuality. The family get compo. HSE is accepting of LGBT just one nurses catholic views like the Savita case. It was found that catholic views prevented Savita from living. If she had the abortion she prob b still with us.
So eventually I arrive at the cinema. After a quick search, I was told that my card was NOT handed in. Which I found a bit odd, afterall no one can use it to get in as there's a Photo of me. He suggested that I wait for about 30mins, however as I had to head to see me sis, I couldn't. So I then headed onto my next errand, which was to return Mom's charger, that I had taken home by accident. I was shitten meself, in case Dad would come out wit all accusations. But as it happens, he didn't even know it was missing let alone Mom herself. He invited me for a cuppa, however I was on me way to my sis. He said that Mom would be coming back from the shopping and to wait for her. As it happens I didn't have too long. So I helped to put the groceries away. Then we had a bite to eat. While there, Mom had mentioned a quote from Oliver Callin in which he states "It's none of my business if a person is experiencing homophobic treatment". Something to that affect. I will have to contact her relating to the EXACT quote. I will update you all ASAP. But if I have it right it sounds as though, he would wash his hands away from people who are having homophobic treatment. To which I totally condone against such. It even further dividing the LGBT Community. As my sis puts it when I saw her later on, is that sounds like he ain't as supportive as he should be. Mom dropped me home. I then headed onto my sis to get a few grub for her. we chatted and took a few pics of her cuties from her Teddy Bear collection. What a laugh we had. So I headed on home. I intended on staying up to get Clogs from Lidls. I was figuring out how to get my card, considering I'll be seeing Mrs. Brown's Boys' D'Movie with my sis tomorrow. I only thought of it tonight.

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.
