Well today had come and my excitement for Joseph(Review here) had arrived. I was most excited to see the production. Maureen(Nun) had previously told me the story of Joseph. I met Brendan and Daniel at the NCI College, and we all headed on off to Bord Gais Energy Theater. I was there the last time for the Big Gay Sing, in aid of Marriage Equality. We again waited outside for a few minutes. After the popcorn was the not the best the last time, I was a abit hesitant in getting it again. So I decided to try it. So I got the SMALL version this time, just in case. It wasn't as bad. The salt level was low and the most important it was stale as O' Farrell says. hahah. So then we all went in. Then at the Interval, we went for a toilet break. I got my scrumptious Green Tea. mmmmm. Then we all went back in. After a wonderful performance, we all headed on home. We left Brendan at his Bus. Then I walked with Daniel to Baggot St., where he lives. On the way, I encountered gorgeous buildings. Twas lovely to experience such wonderful place. I explained to Daniel, that when I walk, I'd to be thinking and of course we don't have to concentrate etc., hahaha. Whereby if your cycling or driving ya have to concentrate on the road.
On the way home, after leaving Daniel, I accidentally ended my Fitness Apps, which was a pity if ya ask me, cause one of the apps, I have NOW allows me to post to DailyMile and then in question on Facebook. Whereby previously I had to Map my route on my own. So then I stopped by Gay Spar(as Mike told me a few weeks ago the Spar on the corner of George's St/Dame St where all the gays go for whatever) to see if I could get a sandwich, as I keep forgetting to take out a bread outta the freezer. To my surprise n shock n horror they didn't have any Vegetarian or at least Meat Free sandwiches let alone salads. I was quite taken aback. So then onwards and upwards towards Londis where Subway is on O' Connell St., So then I headed on home via Drumcondra and got myelf a Veggie Burger n Curry Chips. I was most impressed with the service. When I got home, I saw a takeout, says I to meselfe "Fuck it, she don't trust me". The reason I says so, she don't trust me to eat on my own. She being my Mom. Well assuming it was her who put it on my bike.
On the way home, I decided to try the OK Google feature on my Android Cell Phone. I wanted to remind me about the Bread int he freezer, SO I said the following "OK Google, Remind me to take bread out of freezer. And would ya believe it, it worked. Quite freeky, might I add . hahaha. Am waiting for the the actual time." Then I tried S Voice provided by Samsung. And as it happens it saved the reminder in Google Calender. Whereas the OK Google, as provided by Google Now, saved the reminder there.

Hollywood has lost another great acting icon. Lauren BacCall died of a stroke at the age of 89. She would have been in the earlier era of Hollywood. WAY before MY time.

Joseph & The Amazing TechnicColor Dreamcoat
Today I popped along to the most anticipated Theatre production of Joseph & The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. It featured the biblical story of 600 or 700 years BC(BEFORE CHRIST). It was set in Egyptian and Pharaoh times. From what I could gather, Joseph was born to 12 Brothers and his Father(Jacob). He was the youngest. Two brothers didn't like him. SO they betrayed him. He was sold to slavery(something like that). They then told the father, that Joseph was killed by a wolfe or something like that cause they mentioned blood or something. But as it happens Joseph was alive BUT imprisoned in an Egyptian prison. One of the brothers Benjamin if I recall, went down the market to get something for the family. Eventually he was reunited with the father. Twas so emotional to look at the reunification. Joseph had a gift of whereby he could Interpret Dreams. HE did so with the Butler and the Baker. I was so impressed with the Narrator Danielle. Such a powerful voice. At times, I would think of Idina Menzal. Then of course the main character of the whole production Joseph played by Xfactor former candidate Lloyd Daniels. He was fantastic. Such a great body(mmmmm) and most important of all, the voice. Oh it was out of this world. Throughout the whole show, I was thinking to meself, on a constant basis, that my future is musicals, concerts. If I were to be a of toughie of a critic, I would only critic ONE item. I didn't see the need for the "The King" ie Elvis character. As Elvis wasn't born 3000 years ago. THe Biblical story is set in 600 or 700 BC. Elvis was born in the late 1900s (AD-Anos Dominos(AFTER Christ was Born ie Christmas Day)). Shortly after the story had been told. We had all been treated to a wonderful thunderous belting of the tunes. Once again, I of course joined in. haahah. I would have first been told of Jospeh and the Amazing TechniColor Dreamcoat, back either when I was in school(ELementary/Midlde School) for a concert OR when my Mom n Dad came home from a holiday, and gave me the CD of it. They had been at it years ago.

Diary 12th August 2014
As I was falling asleep at the computer, of which I hate - hahahaah I headed on to bed earlier than normal. So then I heard a doorbell ring my Aunty rang the doorbell once, of which I ignored. Nothing new hahahah.
However, at around 2ish half 2, my sis called round. She was in a state. I tried calming her down. She uses alcohol to her help her etc., However she couldn't stop. She told me hundreds of times, that her ex(of which shall remain nameless, he doesn't even deserve space on my Blog) had raped her. She was "Coherent" as she puts it, he even threatening that he'd shoot her with a rifle gun if she didn't do what he said. Thats what I could gather. I got her a cuppa tea. I thought that would help her, It did to a certain. But she was getting increasingly agitated. So she took another can. Of which we then learned was to be of her last. She rang the cops. But as she was severely intoxicated, the cops couldn't take a statement from her. So the other Garda interviewed(informal of course) me. I told him of my disgust that I didn't have time for the likes of him etc., So she then went into an epileptic fit, banging her head etc., That scared me really. Me not knowing what to do. The Garda told me to help him as had got a call on his cell phone. So it was found in the end that she would be required to go to the hospital. SO I'm hoping that she'll be transferred to a psychiatric facility(which as it happens is beside me). So she's currently safe and sound in the hospital. Hopefully all things will be grand. As I said, the road to recovery has started, the fact that she came to me. She was clearly highly suicidal. So she now has the help alrite. I then went back to the hospital as she left her meds etc., behind. She was asleep when I arrived. Oh I had a little cry or distress or whatever u wanna call it when she was having the fit. Like me not knowing what to do. Oh and get this, My Landlord came round when my sis was having the epileptic fit. Says I to myself, "Great timing". Like I had rang him regarding the flood, a few weeks ago and he only shows up today of all days.
Well at aleast he's done his bit now. Until the next flood. hahahah. So I asked if he needed me for anything, as I was heading out to get my dole. He then asked me if he could move the Sand bags. I was initially gonna say to him to leave him, but then I began to think of my back. So I said yeah sure go ahead. I then headed to onto the dole. I told the clerk that a person has left keys behind. She sniggered in that something like "God he left a lot behind". She then asked if there was anything else. I said nope, "Just your machines". So then I moved onto AIB my bank. There was an auld lad there ahead of me, standing at the machines. He tells me and I quote, "Why the fuck wouldn't they have just one working at least". BOTH machines were being maintained BUT at the same time. So we had to wait. Just as I was about to head out, the machines were working away.
So then I have been looking at TV at home. I was looking at Dr. Phil. An interesting topic was being discussed. In that the mother Darlene(I think) was very worried that her daughter Abby who recently converted to Islam. However the daughter being from Texas, USA, has been subjected to Racism as she wears Muslim Clothing. She plans on moving to Saudi Arabia. Now the culture in Saudi Arabia for women, is they cannot be seen let alone heard. Abby is under the illusion that she has lived her life int eh USA, ie Education, Driving etc., and she just wants to be "Hidden". Like an example. One rule in Saudi Arabia is Women are NOT allowed to Drive. Her attitude. So what, I don't like Driving. Something like that. When Dr. Phil was reading out the Rules on his screen to Abby, I noticed her body language. To that of worry etc., ie she don't know whats she putting herself into. I can see where the mother, Darlene is coming from. BUT to call the faith Islam to be of Terrorist, yeah I think that's a bit far fetched in my eyes. Its like in my opinion Gays being Pedo or whatever or Priests in Catholicism being Rapists etc., My point being is NOT EVERYONE in Islam is a Terrorists, Likewise Gays and Priests. So Darlene's accusation to think that Islam is a Terrorist Religion, yeah that's a bit far fetched alrite. Dr. Phil asked Abby what does she NOT like about America. She claims America has TOO much freedom, might I add. She explained thou that she'd rather OLD culture.
Then on my sex Facebook, I had gotten a message from one of my mates, and noted that all my messages were marked as Spam as in to protect me etc.,. I initially ignored it. However when the friend told me that he WOULDN'T report me, I then began to investigate. I Goolged(being my best friend). One was found that if I use a Mobile app, then my friend thought something appeared on my Lappy. So then I said I'd try and log into my FB account using the App. That did though bring something about. It would appear that my account could have been hacked into. As their was a pic(of which is hot btw hahaha) had a guy being given a blow job BUT the dick being covered by a football). I vaguely don't recall uploading the pic, considering the content that FB is totally against.
Good point made on Midday, relating to Robin Williams tragic passing. In that one of the panelists was saying that no matter how happy he was ie while acting etc., that deep down is was really really sad. "He'd fought the fight for so many years, and it just got the better of him. He jsut couldn't beat it. "t
NEWS
It is with great with regret that Robin Williams has died at the age of 63 of an apparent Suicide. He voiced Genie in Aladdin. Few other films. Where I would personally fondly remember him in Mrs. Doubtfire. And the other film August Rush. He will be fondly remembered and missed dearly. He was battling severe Depression and Alcoholism. He won an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor in Good Will Hunting in 1998
Spanish Priest who had contracted Ebola virus in Africa, was flown back to Spain however has sadly passed away. He's the first European to die of the Ebola virus.
It has now been revealed that An Taoiseach Enda Kenny under the Freedom of Information Act, that he received 1000 emails from Gareth Brooks fans.

Diary 11th August 2014
Well today I got up with a view of meeting my ex which I haven't seen in years. Due to his mother's ill health and then subsequent unfortunate mother's death, he wasn't able to travel to Dublin. So last November if I recall he called up to Dublin, however we weren't able to meet as he was too busy. But today, we met for the first time in several years. Give or a take a good two years mini or tops as one would say. His business today was to actually go to the Probate and as he puts it "Administer his mother's Estate" something like that. Now throughout the entire meetup if tahts what you call it??????, he was constantly on his phone. As O' Farrell said not too long ago, if you're with a person to meetup especially after SEVERAL years. Quite ignorant of him if you ask me. He did however point out, that I was acting quite nervous. Which I find hard to believe. But bottomline thou, that the ignorance he showed by playing with his phone. Like a few times, he even stopped me in my tracks of talking. Or that he would say that I would talk too much.
I initially went into Lidls as I had forgotten to go to Lidls. Despite the fact that I was actually up at 7. I would normally go to Lidls. Yet I forgot. However I was in luck. I got my shoes and earphones, as I sat on the other ones, that I got in O2.
So then the two of us, Keith and I went to Quigleys for a cuppa tea, where unfortunately he got distracted and knocked over a jug. while wondering around the city as he's hitting the big 40 next year, I asked him how does he feel age wise. He feels like Peter Pan "The boy who never grew up". WE then went into Pennys where we looked around. Then we were gonna head to Eason's O' Connell St., for a final cuppa. However they were closed. So we headed to McDonald's for our cuppa. Then afterwards he headed to the bus to go home to Kildare.
So after I left him, I headed to Specsavers to see if I could collect my glasses, however they were closed. So I continued on towards my folks. I first broke my journey of going to the Outhouse. I encountered Declan, Bernard David(Behind the counter) and David O' T. When I arrived, the chairs were in a position as if they were looking at a performance or something. They were discussing an arrange of topics. Gay Marriage for one as the Referendum is fast approaching. David found it annoying that Pride this year only concentrated on Marriage equality and not Homophobia. I somewhat agree. So in a fit of rage(not literately of course. heeehh) I revealed to em, that I have sent in a letter to the GCN for the Discrimination I endured at Pride this year. I have noticed of late thou that Declan keeps bringing up the regout I had on. One thing really stuck by thou. "Catholic Gay".
So then I headed on towards my folks. I had a thought, that any guy I fancy or find cute or hot or whatever, that they should feel privileged. Like it would be a self esteem boost, in my opinion. Like wise with girls or women or whatever. So then I continued on, and got myself a takeout on the way tot he folks.
I went tot he folks with a view of getting my tickets for Wednesdays' Musical Joseph and the Amazing TechniColour Dreamcoat. I explained to both Mom n Dad that my sis' Psychotherapy is bound to actually bring up some harse memories from Romania etc., etc., and that unfortunately is the only way to recovery. Mom was under the illusions that she mightened be able to handle the memories etc.,

Diary 10th August 2014
Just as about I was to head to bed, there was loud music. Lasted for about an hour or so. While the music was on, I was taking NSFW pics of meself. hahaha. Then I got to sleep
Then I woke up from a nice sleep, I then got myself ready for the Vegetarian Meetup. I was about 10mins into my walk to the National Botanic Gardens, when I got a notification from Meetup and saw that there were a few. Someone asked where to meetup, however Sarah(the person who organised this meetup and also the person I bumped into in Drumcondra a few weeks ago) replied to the person and said that she had cancelled the meetup due to heavy rain and weather. She had rescheduled to Aug 24th, which is when the Marriage Equality March is on. So I won't be able to make that.
So as the meetup didn't work out, I have been looking at the News from yesterday and Ros na Run Órga(The Golden oldies as one would say.) Boy it was lovely seeing Donnacha. Awwww was lovely to see him after all these years. They had changed the Donnacha character to be that of a different actor. This one to be so cute. mmm. Then I another thing I noted in these episodes I have been looking at, was Tom was already out to the public as a gay man. He came out a few years ago. However, Tom was seeing Conor who only came out to his sister who is the Dr. of the village. More so the way he came out was he was about to kiss the Tom when his sister walked in on em. He then says to the reaction of the Dr. the following quote.
"I didn't choose my "sexual orientation" as you put it, just to shock you. And if you don't accept it, then I'm sorry for embarrassing you! - Conor O Baoill(Ros na Run actor - who played Dr. Sinead Ní Bhaoill's Brother on the series)
As my sis wasn't available to meet, I was looking at the Golden Girls and an interesting Documentary on Irish Weather. Suitabley called the Four Seasons. As the Irish get all 4 seaons sometimes in one day. One point in the documentary was John Creedon the presenter asked the pilot, why is the pilot in the back and John the passenger is in the front. If your flying solo, for weight battle purposes and for other controls. They's all in the back. John was wanting to experience a cloud spotting as he puts it, he wanted to experience. The pilot recommended that he touch it ie hop on a plane and bob's your uncle. hahah. When the plane was taking off, ie off the tarmac, I actually felt it. Cause it did happen to me several times. Going to and from Doncaster and Italy. I was in bits. My sis gave me a valium on one occasion. But I still was aggitattied. The stewardess asked my sis if I was alrite.
