"Yesterday's Pornography #2"

Me & My Stormtrooper Helmet.


So due to a lack of boo's, rotten egg's & the odd tomato smacking me right in my "virtual" gob I have prepared another batch of written diary entries that I made in the very early months of my Hep C tx, before I had a Blog. So sit back with a large carton of popcorn..... prefrably coated in a thin layer of yummy arsenic!

Alright! I finally went and ordered my Andrew Ainsworth made Stormtropper body armour. I went at 5pm to 76 The Green in Twickenham. Once in the workshop I had to step over various body parts destined for other customers. Andrew was downstairs drilling holes in more armour parts. Money well spent! I have everything now. The 'Stunt' helmet (Stormtrooper) made by 'AA' (Andrew Ainsworth) that I bought way back in January 2005 (when he first started reproducing them). A 'Master Replica' E-11 Stormtrooper Blaster Rifle. A black ribbed neck piece from e-bay. Not many people will be able to say that they own their very own Stormtrooper made by the man who designed and hand made the originals back in 76 for Star Wars 'ANH' (A New Hope)..........but I can:) In the same building with the original moulds too.
Went to gym and then Jac & I had a Subway over at my flat & watched Noel Fielding & Jullian Barrett in a short film called "Sweet". Very very funny! Those two are wonderful! My HIV drugs (as usual) made me feel completely detached from myself in a funny kind of 'being in someone elses skin, with boiling blood whilst sitting in a jumbo-jet just before it crashes (upside down) into the ocean!

Hello! Saw my Dad Wednesday night & we played golf on the PS2 & I won again. He won a few holes (2) out of about 28. Yesterday I went to the gym & then saw my Mum. I took a load of potatoes round & we peeled them & cooked all of them to put in my freezer.......I can be such a lazy bastard sometimes. I stayed until 10pm after mash & beans with sausages. We watched a documentary about caring for your elderly parents. Then I missed my Interferon jab by 1 hour & 10 mins (Me now - the only time ever in 48wks I might add!) I was so gutted and worried all night long before I got up first thing in the morning to phone my docs at the RFH. They said it would be fine as it was only an hour and not to worry but don't do it again! I will set my alarm on my mobile phone from now on! I was distracted by "Google Earth". Mark & Ria go to Cuba tomorrow. I am feeding their cat for the time they are away. I collect the keys at 1pm today.

Went for a hike on Friday night with Lee. Not as long as usual & my feet hurt during and killed me the next day!! But still nice. We came across a burned down fire that we stood by keeping nice and warm. On the grass all around us were hundreds of worms and when we walked by them they felt our vibrations and quickly disappeared into their tunnels.
Saturday evening I saw Mum, Tarn & Daisy round at my Mums.We had fish & chips from the chippy & watched a dancing show on ITV1. Naif & Millie popped by for a bit and Millie kissed me on my cheek:)
Today (Sunday) I have been in all day. Gym beckons. I think my Mum is upset that I didn't give her a mothers day card last Sunday. So I will make her one in the week and take her out to her favorite Harvester restaurant to say sorry.
Nicola had a shunt in her new car. She is fine but shaken I think......not her fault.
Boat Race today. Mum wants Oxford to win...........or Cambridge? I'm not sure! I shall watch it on TV.

Millie watched the boat race from the riverbank (Barnes). I went out on my bike for an hour to Richmond via Teddington Lock, then back along the tow-path via Twickenham. Nice weather. Fed Mark & Ria's cat Herbert. Bumped into Mum & Daisy in Kingston today. I bought daisy a black studded belt that she really wanted from "Brilliant". Then we met back at Tania's & played in the garden all afternoon with Millie on her new slide. Nice & warm.
Going to Dads for a couple of hours at 7pm to play golf again.
I am doing ok on my Hep C treatment stuff. Dry, itchy knuckles are much better (E-45). Got a kind of blister thingy on my bottom lip. Small and doesn't hurt (3 weeks). Otherwise pretty ok.
Haven't seen Claire since August 05. We talk & e-mail often. It seems we are just friends now. I could go and visit but not up to it really, not while I am having this Hep C stuff. Be nice if she could come visit here sometime in the future:)

Played golf at my Dads last night & can you believe it.........he beat me! I don't know what went wrong;)
Anyway, Claire text me at 03:00am to say Nun-night & that she missed me.
It's nice and sunny today (at the moment) cool though. Lee wanted to go out for a bike ride last night but I was being spanked at golf round my Dads. We are going Friday evening instead.
Tarn's Birthday soon (Monday) 32 years old.

"That's all folk's!" Until the next riveting instalment that is;)
