Diary 27th February 2016

Today was quite and what a day or as someone would a MOTHER of a day. hahahaah. 

WHilst going through the History of the Constituencies of the Republic of IReland, and in particular PRE-Irish Free State(now known as the Republic of IReland), I saw Queens County Constituency for the United KIngdom and Kings County Constituency for the United KIngdom. So I began to investigate this further. When I looked closer I saw the QUeens COunty is NOW Laois and Kings County is NOW OFfaly. How amazing is this and interesting. hahaha. 

Looked at the election coverage for the whole day as well as the lead up to it. What I mean by that is I hadn't seen teh current affairs in the LEAD up to it. hahahah. I signed up to Twitter’s SMS feature of which I thought I had it enabled. So that said I got an SMS saying that Eoin Ó Broin of Sinn Féin got elected. When I read it, I was so sure it was Eoin O' Farrell my mate. ahahaah

So throughout the day, I got myself some grub as in dinner of which Sausage, BUrgers and LAsagne was on the menu. hahahah. It was unfortunate that I burned the sausage and burgers. Hahaha. I still ate them hehehe they ain’t cheap.

Diary 25th February 2016

I'm in a sinn féin led govt whereby they've won the general election. They next then there eye on bringing the 32 counties. Hmmm

I get dreams of Barry my friend hanging around with me, and wonders off quite alot. Then of Emil acting like O' Farrell in terms of shouting at a child or whatever and me being embarrassed AGAIN!!!!. 


While taking a leak I ensure there is space for Campaign Daily on the Box. While doing so I look at a repeat documentary on What Do Women Want presented by Maia Dunphy.  I spot a hot guy(s) cause there were two of em. The segment was about fame then back to work. Senator mark caldy was on the tresure islands  reality show. Now he's a Senator. Awwwws

So then I eventually woke up. ahhaahah. It was quiet funny. I went to pick up my baby or my +Furry Babys Stanescu Sammy. And I wasn't looking where I was going. ANd of course he had to bring the TV with him. awwwww. But that said thou, the fire was on, so yeah I got worried, and threw him. awwwwww. Nevertheless he landed safely on his butt. hahahah. 


I then started my errands: of which was the following: 

An Post - Dole
Cineworld - Movie
Folks - Fix printer
HOme
Meetup GayDublin

So I then got started. I collected my dosh, then I headed onto the bank. Then afterwards on the way back to the bike, I saw Sarah. Had a lovely chat. Haha. I asked her if she was Vegan first then I asked her if she found vegan pancakes and she said her mother made them for her as her sister n herself are lactose intolerance or at least digestive issues

I then on the way to the cinema, saw an advertisement for ADIFF(AUdi Dublin INternational Film Festival instead of JDIFF(Jamesons Dublin International Film Festival). wow. APparently AUdi must have taken over Jamesons sponsorship. ahahah. Then I again I should have known as it would be advertised on TV. EVery year they always advertised. Yet this year, it never crossed my mind. hahaha. So I went to see my precious babe Dylan an aspiring actor or whatever. 

I then headed up to the folks. But FIRST thou getting the cable required for me to fix the printer. hahahah. I went to PC WOrld, nothing, so I went to Maplins. THey were most helpful. I brought up three of them. THey all looked the same, BUT the M were different. hahahahah. So I arrived. Got a meal. Then Replaced the cable, and bodabing bodaboom. hahah


Went to Front Lounge to go to a Meetup known as GayDublin, a new group. I was told they are at the end of the Room. So I asked around. THe barman was suspicious. So I headed out. I was disappointed but at the same time meh. I was indecisive as in making up excuses if it were all females or even 1 male. Like at the end of the day only 4 were going. 

So on the way home, I counted 5 homeless ppl. I was gonna give money, but then I just remembered that I actually do give money anyways to MQI(Merchants QUay Ireland - homeless charity whereby they help the homeless by putting them up for the night or whatever).

Diary 22nd February 2016

WEll today was not that busy a day. I resumed my duties in relation to me tidying up the kitchen RUBBISH. heheeh.

I then answered the door twice, might I add in one day. Twice more than normal hahaah, ie I never get any calls to the door. I thought it'd be Candidate for Dublin BAy North, but as I said to Ailish the other night, I NEVER got one so far of a candidate asking for my Number 1 vote. So that said the two that called to the door, FIrst was An Post devliering my two babies the +Inflatables Stanescu in the shape of Guinness Red and the REgular Guinness. Awwww. I was delieverating of whether I should get em or not. I was basing my decision on Veganism aka GUiness ain't vegan as it contains fish parts or wahtever in the making of the drink. BUt the fact that I WOULDN'T be eating em - awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww I decided to get em. PS The delviering guy aka An Post was a pig. I mean Its not like I was naked or whatever, yet he just may as well through at me.

My second door bell was a guy wanting to sell electricals. Says I to meself "More than likely STOLEN". I said no to the Electric Blanket, and he replied how about this other. I said no to all.

Diary 21st February 2016

Well what a day after so little sleep of about 4hrs if even that. hahaah. Although I did get a bit of sleep heheeh. I was due to visit my Mom in hospital between 3-4pm as I understood it was the Visiting hours. However it wasnt too be. hehehe. Lemme explain in detail. heehe.

So I got up eventually after so little sleep due to me going to bed late. hahaha. Then I got up and ready. So I cycled up to my Mom with me leaving around 3.34 when I should have been up at 3.15. hahhaah. I arrived at 3.55pm, so I was very tight. I dropped in, however she was asleep. So I was about to head off when I got a call from Mom to say if I was dropping up to her. So I popped up to her. Was great seeing her. hheeheh. I spent a good hour with her. Then I headed on off home.

I headed on home to get a few things for my sis. heheeheh like my Sleeves, my Green Tea. I then got a few things in Groceries namely milk. I was ecstatic to learn that they sell VEGAN wraps. mmmmm

Diary 9th Febraury 2016 - Pancake TUesday(Shrove Tuesday)

Well after a dream of whereby I leave my Cineworld card behind while I'm very close to the cinema, and then also my Dad's friend who is currently in hospital with a Brain ANurism. In the dream, he dies and I of course cry my eyes out in reality.

So then eventually I got up, as I had a few errands to do, such as getting a card for my dad's Sister in Law Maura(Dad's brother's wife). I went to Scribbles first to get the pressie and card. heheeheh. I saw a few teddies, of interest, hmmm. However with the price tag, I said I'd leave it.

So that said I then headed off to the GP to get my Medical Cert. However as time was not on my side, the GP was closed which I was shocked as I thought it'd be closed around 6ish, it actually closes around half 5.

So then I headed on into town to get my sis' teddys she wanted. Then I was looking everywhere for Vegan Pancakes. So I popped into Holland and Barretts in Ilac Centre and the sales person told me, that there's no such thing, as Veganism ain't as popular as Vegetarianism. However that said, I can still make them BUT I want it READY-MADE. hahahaah. Then afterwards, I then headed on up towards my folks. I had gotten a voicemail of my Mom, to come up to them for to have Pancakes as today is Pancake Tuesday aka Shrove Tuesday. I was looking everywhere for Pancakes and this reminded me of Sabrina who "I want Pancakes", hahahaah. Mom reminded how Pancake Tuesday came about. It is a Christianity thing, whereby people give up something or do something they've been putting off on the long finger. In relation to Pancakes itself, its a starter to Lent whereby they eat everything before they begin the actual fasting at hand. Quite interesting to learn. haaha. Then I headed on off to my sis. We looked at Mike and Molly. Great comedy. hahaah

Diary 23rd December 2015

Diary 23rd December 2015

Well today started off with a disappointment. Again I couldn't get out of bed. Me thinks its because I'm surviving on Green Tea. and of course Chrisps, which is shortly on their way out too.

So that said I got up slightly later than anticipated. I then headed to meet Edmund for some bizarre reason I kept calling him Edward. I even put it on the card. Like wtf, like, or as the American's puts it "ikr(I know right)", hahaahah. So that said I then headed on off to meet him. It was slightly later than anticipated. I first went to AIB to withdraw cash. However the machine said "Unavailable", so I checked to ensure its not the wrong card. I went inside to try and figure out what up. Then afterwards, I was assured its the right card. So I went to the teller to withdraw. Then I went to meet Edmund eventually. hahaaha. When I arrived another guy Ruairí was there. I never met him. So Edmund then said that he had to go for an event of "Anti-Christmas", of which I took serious. Like I would imagine there are people against it. Like Atheists, for Meat reasons and animals etc., etc.,

So then I headed on back home. On the way, I wanted to get vegan dinner for myself for Christmas Day, however it wasn't to be. I wanted to get stamps of trying to post two cards I left behind, in Ireland. Then I realised that I had the stamps with me all the time. But not the cards. I then came back home.

I was watching a few TV shows, then I headed on back out to first the Outhouse. I had planned on going to the Down to the Earth to see if I could get more Vegan Dinner food. As time was NOT on my side, I then headed to the Outhouse to deliver MORE cards. ahahha. I left them with Jamie. I chatted for a bit. heheheh. I then headed onto meet Todd for to see Star Wars. heheheh. Twas a pleasure seeing him again after all this time. I was disheartened to learn thou that he has been suffering depression as a result of his mother a few years ago, when he was back in Irl and she was over there, ie the US, that he couldn't be with her. Something to that effect. So then I told him of my diagnosis. etc., I ain't sure if its official thou. He brought up a soar spot of which was by no means his intention. How was he know. So I did a bit of self harm in the cinema toilets, the biting of rubber type and I saw something unusual so then I continuing having at it. Then after the film, I headed with him to his place.

I was lookinh aty my emails, sure whats' new. hahahaah. I then came across a very interesitng article whereby it was desceribing an art Technostaglia whereby it'd releave our wonderous Dial-Up days, theren there was the ENcarta. God be the day, I'd go every week over the Dial-Up update Encarta on a Friday ngiht while looking at the Late Late or whatever with Mom n Dad. My Dad or Mom would wanna get the phone however it'd take it up the Internet. hahaha. Ahhh mememories.

Diary 19th December 2015

Today didn't pan out the way I had hoped.

I was due to go into NARA(National Animal Rights Assocaition) leaflet handing of Christmas REcipes IDeas in St. Stpehen's Green. However it wasn't to be as the Alram never went off the time I wnated.So I saw the time being 13.42, I said that's far too late. We were to meet at 1 and then they disperse. So yeah by the time I would have got in, I'd be lost.

My next plan was to go to Vegan Infomation Table in Westmoreland St., So that liekt he above reason didn't pan out either.

Then the next plan was to meetup with Edmund, EVelyne and Glo aka Vegan Ireland at their usual stand, however that wasn't to be.

So I then with all the above plans collapsing, I decided against getting stamps for teh Irish cards.

So then I slept on, had a hurrendous dream where my favorite character in Ros na Rún Séamus Mhicil Tom who is played by Diarmaid Mac An Adhaistiar gets killed with heating floors. I'm in a room, and the floor is over heating. I see someone noticing the bump on one of the floor tiles. So I see teh character. I shed several tears for him. Diarmaid himself thou passed on recenetly in July of this year. ANd for this year's Christmas episodes, Ros na Rún will be laying Seamus to rest ie writeing him out of the series.

My sis called down with Mom, to hand me a takeout. heheeh.

So with that in mind, I eventually got up after such a horrendous dream as I said, then I did more self harming in the means of scraping the OTHER side of the letter 'M' I scraped on.

So then I got up and I got ready for the PLAN of the night. hahahaah. I was to meet Eoin and the gang for to see Star Wars: The Force Awakens(Episode VII). Although before hand I was to go to the Outhouse to go and see if I can see Joyce to hand her her card. However I had gotten Joyce and Severn mixed up, which was a shame, as I couldn't give Severn his card. He was totally embarrassed thou, god love him thou. So then getting back to Star Wars, I was gonna go to Down to Earth, however it wasn't to be as time wouldn't be on my side. heheeh. I then headed to meet the gang. Then we all headed on up to the most aniticapted movie in the unvierse. heehehe

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.

Cornucopia, Wicklow St, Dublin

Cornucopia, Wicklow St., Dublin, Ireland

Twas an quite a visit today. I have been to Cornucopia several times, today I decided to do a review as I've never done so. hahaah.

Today I had Soup, Salad and Dessert. The Soup and Dessert I wholeheartedly enjoyed. the Salad not so much. Now as regards the staff, they were very accommodating. I've never had an issue with Staff or their foods hence why I keep going back to em. hahaha. The only thing I would say is to offer MORE vegan alternatives ie HOT foods. I wanted the Baked cheese thing, However as it wasn't Vegan, I had to make do with Salad, with as you can gather, did not enjoy.

The Soup was a mushroom creamy consistency. Green in color as per the pic. It was absolutly heaven. Totally enjoyed it.

My next was the Salad, I was hoping for a hot dish, however it wasn't to be, as the stuff I wanted was Cow cheese instead my baby Violife Cheese which is Vegan. So I stuck with the Salad, of which I didn't enjoy it one bit. Oh their was taste no doubt, but I just didn't care for it.

So I moved onto the Dessert, as I said to my colleague, I like to "end on a sweet note" as per what my mother would say. hahha. I had a lovely Tart of which was a lovely soft consistency texture, and a crumbly base. It was all heaven. hehehe.

Diary 7th November 2015

PS This post contains NSFW content by means of self harm and suicidality. ie TRIGGER

Well as you can gather no improvement on my thoughts. So my last thought before I actually got up was to butcher meself depending on Maureen's answer, if she remembers a black guy in eh orphanage and if she does, then I would butcher meself like a carcass, like the way they yank the skin thing off before the meat in question and it hanging off and then somehow getting up to the hospital. I attempt to put toilet paper, as I don't have any bandages. But low and behold I saw Sammy his ass facing me, and I said to myself I wanna see his face , hahah. So I played with BOTH Patch n Sammy. ehehhe and my Ducky and my Sleevenies, hehehehe. So that got my suicidality and self harm, more so self harm thoughts away.

So I got up and rang Maureen my Aunt to find out if she remembers the Black guy who was in my dreams a few months ago, as expected she couldn't remember. So then I got up showered and watched the news. My sis popped down for some downloading.

I then headed out with a view of seeing Edmund, head of Vegan Ireland and Evelyn and the french woman GLoria(Glo) and then onto Pan(Review here) and then to folks as Ailish and Noel are away to mind Noeleen and Andrew's kids as they themselves are celebrating their 17th ANniversary in Rome, funnily where they got married initially. ahahah.

So then I headed onto Edmund and saw them at the table to protest against Fur, as per every Saturday afternoon. Then afterwards, the 4 of us, Edmund, Glo, Evelyne and myself headed onto Cornucopia. heheh. I had a beautiful Vegan Chocolate FUdge Cake. It was so scrumptious and heaven. hahha. We were chatting away, I was chatting with GLo, and before you know it, time caught up with us and as such, I wasn't able to get a pressie AND the cinema in at all. The pressoe, was well too late. And then cinema indeed hahaah. We were chatting about her course which brought great memories back from my college days. However with programming!!!!. Like although I love it an all, I just can't hack it in a business environment.

So I headed on up to Mom n Dad's directly. heehehe. I was joined by my sis. We had a nice meal. ehheh. hhahaaLooked at TV etc.,

Diary 1st November 2015

Well what a day it turned out to be. A negatively day was turned into a positive day.

I was due to be up for 1ish for to go to Dublin Vegfest, aka International Vegan Day. However my legs were killing me, and crying out for me. So eventually I got up for half 3ish. I was gonna shower for Movember, ie to shave EVERYTHING, literally. hahaah. However it wasn't to be. So I headed on off to F2 Center in Fatima, Rialto. Its a very ignored place in the City ie The Liberties. I used my Lumy to direct me to the place at hand, as per usual it wasn't helpful. Google Maps would tell me to reroute or I'm going the wrong way. However with Maps from Windows Phone, nope it wouldn't. So eventually I arrived. THe place was bouncing when I arrived, even at an hour left. I arrived at 4ish. They didn't even check my ticket. I missed out on Goody bags. Aww well. However great stuff was on show. The venue thou is VERY Questionable. They perhaps were trying to put an ignored place on the maps. I ain't sure. But very questionable. Like when I was leaving, I hopped on my bike and simply put, I was asked "Are you ready, " I said ready for what, and the guy said "A new life", and he sniggered. So yeah venue for a MAJOR event, very questionable. And how it was Modern, ????? Very small if you ask me. I thought it'd be a huge hall.

So I headed on back. I arrived back to my sis. We had a great time. I showered, as per my schedule, although LATER than scheduled, but I had to do it, so in accordance with the Movember Charity. So we chatted but more so while she was downloading, we was looking at Saved By The Bell. So I left her at her place. We chatted for a bit and headed on back home. eheheh

Diary 18th October 2015

Today was quite an enjoyable day. Although I told my sis of a horrid dream of rape of a good friend of mine. As far as I recall, he was being recorded of being raped. And I went back to the perpetrators' house and broke the tape by pressing a stop button and some other button. And my mates parents trying to tell me he was being raped etc., etc., Then the mate's relatives got involved. Something to that effect. She saw it in my worry face. And I wouldn't mind I had actually told myself NEVER go back to bed sleeping, how true is that. Like the reason I says this is that I was left awoken as my Lappy was left on the whole night as I was trying to download a very cute singer from Turkey whom I came across on a mates' profile on Facebook. And also I was trying to do ....... So I had to leave the lappy on. While doing so I was struggling to sleep,, however I woke up for a leak and then went back hence the above dream. So then onto some pleasantness I treated my sis to some Vegan Home cooked Pasta and Tomato sauce. So she was doing downloading and I was entertaining her with some of comedy I had. heheeh namely One Foot in the Grave, Saved By The Bell and Taxi. My mom in the meantime came down with some food, and then after a few hours, I then headed with her to her place and then came back.

While looking at SundayAM on TV3, I only realised that Killian O'Sullivan who does TV reviews for the week, that it's the same Killian from Fair CIty who played Lorcan(Carol's son). He sadly was killed off from the show. He's been on the TV3 show for several months, yet I only noticed today. hahaah. Nice one Stany!!!

Diary 13th October 2015

Well today was quite a day. haha

I did my usual errands I do on a Tuesday. hahaahah. hehehe.

My first port of call was to get my dosh before it closed. I was there struggling with my bike and the laundry AND my trousers(which kept falling due to my rapid weight loss - hahaah). I've noticed recently that I can't do anything with my right hand anymore. With a JO(jerkoff), nope won't do the work. Basically I have to use the left for everything, for JO's for walking my bike even carry bags etc.,

So moving on I then dropped the Laundry into Clean Freaks, which was quite unusual. By that I mean that the price is lower, and I got a text off them stating that there are "two items" and then the woman told me that it would be available on Friday, which is interesting. hahaah.

I then headed onto the bank did my business. Unusually I didn't have enough for to go and do my normal weekly bill payments. So I looked up what "robbed" my money. hahaah. It was actually Electric Ireland and Sky.

So then I moved onto my grocery weekly of SmallChanges. hahaah. I asked Peadar, why the taste of one of the TOmato Sauce was so "boring" or Bland. I knew about NO Added sugar or salt, but seriously? So he told me that its JUST tomatoes. Well the laugh I got. I paid about €2 or €3 for jst "friggin tomatoes" as I said on the way home. hahaha. It was priceless.

So while transferring files for my sis' visit, I took a shower. Then headed to my sis. On the way, I was looking for a Grater where I can grate cheese. hahaah. However the manners of a pig in Centra didn't have any. hahaha. So I arrived and we looked at TV. I brought up how come Maureen remembers that MEMORABLE day of when I had Mom, Dad and Maureen and of course my sis for a Cuppa and a Apple PIe or something. We sat around my table. Then my depression hit. And hence my place is NOT suitable for visitors anymore. Then the other day I was onto Maureen by means of a phonecall, and she told me of the dream. I can't for the life understand why she's so obsessed with that particular day. ahhaah. Then my sis asked when would I be going up to the folks. And I said I can't go up freely to Mom n Dad's as I'm no longer welcome to visit, but to FOOD, thats' all I get.

I was interested in finding out what party the current Dublin Lord's Mayor(ess) is ie Críona Ní Dhálaigh, I kinda knew she was a member of Sinn Féinn, however One thing I never expected thou that Sinn Féin's FOUNDER is Arthur Griffith. Where I know that name is that the avenue I was reared on ie the street is known as Griffith Ave., I was told that the avenue is named after Arthur Griffith. Now one asks, WHY??? like did he live there, or fight etc., etc.,

NEWS

It has been announced that Paul O'Connell, has been ruled out of teh Rugby World Cup. This is his last Rugby International. Ie he's retiring forcefully due to a string injury

A report of The MH17 flight from Kualampur that was shot down by a Buk missile, has concluded that it was indeed the Buk that shot down the plane when it was  flying over a no - fly zone in Dunesk, Ukraine.
