Today has been one of the, if not THE hottest days of the year so far. I managed to spend about an hour and a half in the sun, trying to get a tan on my pasty white chest and to even out the tan on my feet (which have a strange dark brown pattern due to the straps of my sandals, not to lack of washing as some may think!!).
I am always very reticent to show my naked torso in public though, as it is rather shapeless. On my last set of 12 days off I declined to take my top off at all while lazing in the sun and began thinking that I should join a gym again, probably Virgin Active, just to get some definition back in my body, something it has lost over the last 10+ years since I last did any meaningful exercise (which in itself was only though work and dancing at clubs, the gym has never held any attraction for me other than ogling the unobtainable bodies therein).
My urge to join a gym was further cemented during a conversation with a guy on Gaydar, and with the knowledge that a certain guy on Facebook is a regular runner. Top this off with the narcissistic streak that a lot of gay men have, and the fact that a lot of the guys that I fancy obviously go to the gym frequently, then this leaves me with no real alternative other than to initiate a membership somewhere.
I am put off by the fact that I will feel like an idiot not knowing what to do at the gym, as when I had membership at Fitness First a few years back they never gave me a proper induction and most of the staff were very unapproachable. I also feel like a sad-case having no one to go the the gym with. But on the other hand, if I brave these feelings, I will have a new "hobby" to fill my time off, I will have more to discuss with other "gym bunnies" if I ever get chatting to one and with friends, and my confidence can only improve if I have a body I am proud of. Of course there is the fact that I will be healthier too, but that has never been a priority of mine.
I only wish that I could get some idea of what the monthly membership would be at Virgin Active before I go in, as it doesn't say on the website and I don't want to embarrass myself by asking and then realising that I can't afford it.
Oh well, as I don't know anyone who is a member I guess I don't have a choice but to go in and ask. I shall have to make that my task for tomorrow. I'm guessing that mid-morning, or mid-afternoon would be the quietest times to go in. I'll let you know how it goes.

Tanning. Dating? Writing!!!
Today was a much better day than yesterday, with everyone being able to get their designated breaks and everything getting done on time. It was still boring though. I managed to do lots of research for my LGBT database and I even managed to sit out in the sun (on one of the terraces) for about 20 minutes before the weather turned. One more day at work before my next off-stint.
Checking Facebook upon coming home tonight I finally have a reply from the guy who sent me the slightly cryptic message on Thursday. He was indeed going to ask me out for a drink, but had no internet access at work and had a work leaving do to go to. He didn't get my reply until he had returned from this. Oh well. I sent him a message telling him about me upcoming 12-more days off and that we should arrange something whenever he is free. Once again, we shall see what develops.
Oh, and I've had an idea for a script for me to write too. As with everything creative I do, it isn't 100% original, but hopefully I can turn it into something unique and interesting. I came up with the idea last night as I was trying to get to sleep, and had to sit up and write it all down before I forgot it (I'm glad that I did as I've only just remembered about it now!!). It will be based, at least partially on events that I have experienced, thus making it easier to write honestly. The characters will also be base on people that I know, though I will use some creative licencing.
If you know me and are worried, you may never know if I have included you. Knowing me, no one else will ever see this script, that is even hoping that I manage to finish this one!!!

Another Sh*tty Day @ Work
Today has been crap. Being a weekend the air conditioning is turned off and it's been another lovely day outside, so it has been horrendous inside. On top of this the building manager was in, with a crew, working on the fire alarm systems. He started this just as I was beginning my first break and wanted to "borrow" one of the guards, so I had to forgo my break. The first round of testing went on for over an hour and a half, by which time it was way into when the guys lunch breaks were meant to begin. I got one of the guys to have 40 minutes (instead of the hour he was due) and the second just began his break when he was called to help with the second round of testing. When I queried if he was really needed as he was on his break I was told "that's why you get paid for your breaks!" Arsehole!
This time testing went on for 2 hours making lunches over 3 hours late. I made sure my guys had their full quota (and ate my lunch in the control room!). I eventually got a proper break at 17:00. 10 hours into my shift! I was dying to go to the loo! I cannot wait to get home now, have a shower and just relax. I am also much less inclined to give up my free time on Tuesday for this bloody TUPE meeting now as well!
Have I told you lately how much I hate working here? Well if I haven't it is because there hasn't been a word invented to describe how much I hate it!!! Well, not one that can be used in polite conversation anyway!

First Day Back - Again
I really like having 12 days off. Yes I was bored by the end of it as I had no one to spend the time with all the time, but the sheer fact that I wasn't at work made it nice. Today back at work I was bored after just a couple of hours. Not a good sign. We have no more information about transferring over to the new company, but they want us ALL to attend a meeting on Tuesday morning about the TUPE process. Quite how they expect ALL of us to attend is beyond me as someone has to man the fort! As it is some of the guys are staying on from their night shift (meaning an extra 5 hours at least on top of the 12 hour shift!). I am off that day, my first of my next 12 day holiday stint, and I really do not want to go, but my boss asked for a favour. As the meeting is just down the road from me (even closer than work), and the fact that others are giving more of themselves (the aforementioned night shift people), I begrudgingly agreed to attend. It better be worth it. None of us are getting paid for our time (except my boss who is working then anyway, so he gets time of work when everyone else has to give their own time freely!!!).
Anyway enough about that place, I have three more shifts (plus this meeting thing) and then I am off for a 12 day stint again, during which London Pride takes place. I shall have to start bullying people to ensure they attend.
One other thing has annoyed me today:
I had to delete my music selections as none of the songs would play due to "licencing laws" in my country apparently! How annoying. You would think that the bigger artist would be able to afford it and the smaller ones would appreciate the exposure! So I apologise to anyone who is missing my musical selections, I know I am!
I feel that I should say something poignant about the loss of Farrah Fawcett and Michael Jackson, but I will leave that to others who will speak more sincerely. Both were icons of the 70's, but both had good lives, so although my sympathy goes out to their families (as it does to anyone who loses someone they love), I feel no grief myself. The only thing I will say is that when I was in my one-and-only relationship with Graham, while I was living in Torquay, "our song" was "You Are Not Alone" by Michael, so I thank him for giving us that, at that time.

Morning!
I woke up about half an hour ago with a splitting headache and it still hasn't gone. Maybe it's a delayed hangover from the weekend? I got up almost immediately as I really needed to go to the toilet (you know, first thing in the morning and you are bursting?). Typically though there was someone in the bathroom so I had to hold it for another 10 minutes, it was murder.
Just when I thought that the day was going to be total hell, I checked Facebook to find a slightly cryptic message from a (gorgeous) friend asking it I was free tonight. I don't normally go out on a work night, but I'll make an exception in his case. We shall see if anything develops!!

Everybody Needs Gorgeous Neighbours
I popped out to Tesco late this evening to get some essentials and while I was there I noticed that my gorgeous neighbour from across the road, the very muscular guy, was there too. This was the first time that I had ever seen him from any viewpoint other than my bedroom window. My first thought was that he was shorter than I'd thought, looking down from a first floor window is more distorting than I'd imagined. His face also didn't look as perfect as it had from a distance, though he was still handsome and sexy.
I had seen him at his window yesterday afternoon, just before I went out briefly. He had been stood there for a few seconds topless and I got a good view of his impressive abs. As soon as he noticed me though he had disappeared again.
Today in Tesco just confirmed that he wasn't interested at all. When I managed to catch his eye and smiled a "hello" at him he just turned away and then ignored me the whole time I was in the store. Shame. I still think he is a stunning man though and can almost guarantee that I won't stop looking!

Boring Day.... Mostly
I could not decide what to do when I got up today. I was tempted to go up to Hampstead Heath and laze about in the sun, and have the occasional wander through the undergrowth too, but the weather this morning wasn't as good as it was meant to be, so I discounted that idea pretty early on.
When I eventually got to use the shower (thanks to my housemates) and got my self presentable for the world it was almost midday, so I made myself some lunch and then decided to head on over to the library.
I sat outside at Lakeside Terrace for a while in the intermittent sun and marvelled that I see something new almost every time I sit there: first it was large orange fish in the larger pool, then black fish, then herons, yesterday there was a seagull feasting on one of the orange fish, and today I saw that there were smaller fish in the raised pond. I love it there.
After a while I went into the library and read a couple more chapters of Maybe the Moon, by Armistead Maupin (something I have been doing for a while, in between the book being booked out by normal library users). As usual I got cruised by one of the male librarians, who I must admit has a great arse, not a bad shaped back, and he's not bad looking either.
I then managed to catch the eye of a nice looking, smartly dressed guy as I was leaving the library and followed him into one of the lifts. We had a quick fumble and he led me to a secluded area in one of the lower floors of the centre where we had a bit of fun. He had a very impressive chest, so I guess that will have to do for my birthday wish of having a muscle man.
When I returned home I sat on the computer updating my LGBT database while listening to part 1 & 2 of the second Dr Who audio adventure, "Sword of Orion" from the set that Tim had given me for my birthday. I am enjoying them so far, except for one small detail: At the end of the first part of each story so far, when they are announcing who plays whom, they always give away part of the story line. In the first, "Storm Warning", they revealed the identity of the mystery passenger. Then in this second one, it was announced that Nicholas Briggs provided the voices of the Cybermen, when we hadn't learned yet who the "bad guys" were. That is the only fault I can find with them so far though. My best birthday present for ages (my only birthday present for ages too!).

Changed My Mind
After deliberating for ages about what to wear for my evening out drinking (again), I got into town at around 19:45 had one drink in Rupert Street and came home again.
As soon as I got to Soho I realised that I wasn't in the right frame of mind to be drinking alone. I double checked with Tim to make sure he hadn't changed his mind about coming out for a drink (which he hadn't) and then got the bus home.
I was disappointed with the lack of people out tonight. I know it is a Tuesday, but I thought, what with it being a lovely day ALL day and being a lovely evening, that there would be tonnes of guys around. In fact the only ones who were around were hideous, camp queeny queens, which hastened my departure somewhat.
I have 2 more days off work and I really don't know what to do with them. I have had enough of my own company, I want the company of someone else. How pathetic does that sound?

Am I A Perfectionist?
I have just gone back to a post from yesterday and corrected some mistakes (a word in the wrong place caused by my over sensitive mouse pad on this lap top). If I hadn't corrected it no one would have cared and I'm sure that most who did read it barely noticed, but I knew it was there and felt I had to change it immediately.
I have done this several times before, sometimes with posts that are years old (how long have I been doing this blog??), so it was even more unlikely in those circumstances that anyone would see the corrected version, but because I knew it was wrong I had to change it.
I know I will carry on doing it too, but still feel that there are more important things that I should be worrying about.
Like what to do tonight?

AAARRRRGGGGHHHHHH!!!
[I just did it again, as I hit the "Publish Post" button I noticed that I hadn't put a question mark in the Title box, so had to come back and correct it. How pathetic?]
What To Do?
I am having the same trouble that I had yesterday. I can't decide what to do. Do I go out into Soho for drinks, not knowing if anyone I know will be there? Do I got to Chariots in the hope that, this early in the week, there will be enough guys feeling as horny as I do to go there? Or do I stay in again with "my best friend?"
Considering that today has been an amazingly beautiful one, and I have spent a couple of hours out in the sun. I feel that I should enjoy it while it lasts and head on out to have a few more drinks in the last rays of the sun. But another part of me just wants to chill at home (although that would be SO much better with some hunky man to accompany me!!).
I think I will head into Soho and if it is too bad then come on home. I don't think it will be worth while heading to Chariots too late as it is early in the week. Maybe tomorrow though, if I am still feeling this horny, I will head on there around 16:00 and catch the guys going home from work. Maybe?

Horny
I don't know why, but ever since I woke up this morning I have been feeling incredibly horny. It's probably linked to all my talk of wanting to "get it on" with a muscular man for my birthday, but I am feeling so frustrated at the moment that I am considering either going into town (for the third night running, which is unheard of with me), or going to Chariots without being drunk first (which is also highly unusual). The thing is though, I know that both with be a waste of time and money, because I have been horny all day, I know that, should I "get it on" then I probably won't be able to last long!!!
I think maybe tonight I shall have to settle for a date with my oldest and bestest friend. (If you can't work that out I'm not telling you!)

At A Loss
I'm at a bit of a loose end now that my birthday weekend has finished. I really don't know what to do with myself (well apart from the obvious). This morning I remembered that I had yet to go back to Moorfields Eye Hospital to pay for my prescription from nearly 2 weeks ago so I went there first. On the way back I noticed a Peacocks shop and popped in there to have a look. I ended up buying some knee-length blue-checked shorts (it'll make a change from the green ones I always wear around the flat). Then I went to Waitrose, just to get a bottle of water, I ended up getting half a weeks food shopping. So, where I had almost £40 left in my wallet from last night, I now have less than £10. Oh well. Surprisingly I'm still doing fine money-wise.
I am still disappointed that I didn't get my wish last night (to meet a muscular guy to complete my triumvirate of men for my birthday week!). I have a few more days off so who knows what (or who) could happen?

Actual Birthday Drinks
So, after my night out last night, I was in two minds as to whether I should go out today, my ACTUAL birthday, for drinks at all. Then, this afternoon, I got a text from Richard asking if I was still going out and, if so where. I decided there and then that I WOULD go out again.
I met Richard at the Duke of Wellington at 18:00 and we went to Rupert Street immediately as that is where Terry was with some friends of his. His friends turned out to be a guy who lives 2 floors up from where I live and his mad, Australian, choreographer shag that he had just met. It was hours before we managed to get rid of them!
After a few hours at Rupert Street, during which time we were joined by Tim and later Niall, we went back to the Duke until it closed.
My ambition, to get it on with a muscular guy tonight (after my last two night out were successful in getting me laid) turned out to be not so successful, but I had a good night anyway.
All I have to do now is make sure my last few days off are not wasted, as my off days usually are. Wish me luck.

Another Good Night
Despite the earlier false start, and the umpteen changes of clothing brought on by the changeable weather, I eventually got out for some birthday drinks at around 18:00, starting off in the Duke of Wellington with Tim and a strange friend of his that I'd met once before (but whose name escapes me at this moment). We stayed there for about 3 drinks before Tim and I moved on to Rupert Street and then the Yard.
Totally unexpectedly, Tim had brought me a birthday card and a present (my one and only present) which was a box set of audio Dr Who stories. It has a total of 9 disks and so I shall be spending many an hour enjoying listening to these tales. I'm resisting the urge to put one on now!
Tim left to go home (or to meet Niall after his shift in the pub, I can't remember which) and I went on to Barcode (as usual). It was pretty uneventful in there, but I met a guy who I'd previously met there a few years back, named Marcus. We chatted and then he invited me back to his place.
It was nice because there was no expectation of sex, he just wanted to cuddle. As it turns out we just crashed almost as soon as we got into bed. In the morning though he really wanted to cuddle, A LOT! I found myself getting incredibly claustrophobic, as when he put his arms around me one of them would be up around my neck, not tight but along with the heat in the room, his body heat and the fact that he kept putting his thick duvet over us as well. I felt like I just wanted to get out of there. It was a shame really as he is a lovely guy, and on the face of it he was doing exactly what I would normally want, but it just didn't feel right, and, as I said, it felt incredibly restricting and uncomfortable. Luckily, he had a course to go to at 10:00 so we walked to the tube station together before saying goodbye.
I am annoyed at myself for not wanting to see him again, considering how much I go on about wanting a boyfriend and hating being alone, but I rationalise this by telling myself that "it" has to feel right, otherwise what is the point?
I am now debating whether to go out again tonight as originally intended. I have a headache still and I don't know if I can face more booze, but I know of at least one person who will be out if I go, so I want to get out again (and see if I can get some birthday muscle, just as a treat!). I think I probably will go out. If I'm not up to it when I get there I can always come home after a couple (like that will happen!).

Pre-Birthday Blues
Am in a bit of a low mood today. What with my plans to watch rugby at Comptons being scuppered by the scourge of my life (technology) I didn't really have any other plans made for today. I was just hoping that I would watch the rugby, get chatting to some decent guys (like during the Six Nations), and then let the evening progress from there. It wasn't to be.
I did pop into town in the hopes that Comptons had fixed their satellite problem, or that the Duke of Wellington would be showing the match, but it wasn't to be.
After wandering around Forbidden Planet for a while, and not buying anything, I gave up and came home. Just as I was approaching the flat I got a call from Tim asking what my plans were. After some deliberating, and Tim saying he should only go out for one night out of tonight or tomorrow (which is fair enough), I decided that it should be tonight as it will be busier.
My birthday isn't until tomorrow, but hopefully (inevitably?) I shall be out until long after midnight, though I should really try hard to avoid Chariots as I want to go out tomorrow evening too! That will probably be my biggest challenge tonight, especially if I don't get the attention I am craving from a sexy stranger I meet tonight.
Now all I have to do is decide what to wear, which isn't as easy as it sounds because, once again, the weather is incredibly changeable today. Just after I'd finished talking to Tim and telling him that, despite it being a bit overcast and windy it wasn't cold, it began to rain and got a bit nippy. Now, as I look out of the window the sun is streaming in. It should be nice, considering that tomorrow is the first official day of summer, but this is England and there is nothing as unpredictable as the English weather.

A More Productive Day
I am feeling a lot happier with myself today as I have actually used my time quite well. I was up at around 09:00 this morning, though I didn't get into the shower until 10:30 (that wasn't entirely my fault as twice previously I went to have a shower and both time it was occupied, and in between I got distracted on the internet). I was out of the door soon after my shower though and down to the post office to send off 2 loads of comics that I'd sold on eBay and a birthday card to my niece (her birthday is a day after mine).
I then went on to do some shopping despite the deceptive weather. It was bright sunshine and fairly warm, but when the sun went behind clouds it was a bit chilly in the wind. My toes were freezing as I had sandals on (without socks - which should go without saying).
I headed straight for a small shop on Charing Cross Road that I had passed many times but never been in. It sells all sorts of bags and I spotted just what I wanted as I entered the door, and it was only £10.99. Bargain.
I then went to Orbital Comics and got 2 reference comics and a book that I have been meaning to buy for ages. The book, a Superman Encyclopedia, completes a set of three (along with those concerning Batman and Wonder Woman) and was also on sale, saving me £4.50.
I then popped to Burtons to see if I could find any nice tops that I may have missed when I went in there earlier in the week. I was overloaded with tops and had to make a decision on which ones to buy. I ended up taking 6, all t-shirts with 3-4 buttons down the front from the neck. All for £50.
I decided that I had been quite lucky with my bargains so far and not to push my luck so I got the bus home. On the way I stopped at Somerfield, which I have only just realised is within walking distance of home, is cheaper than Waitrose and has a better selection (and better hygiene) than Tesco. I think I will be shopping there more often.
When I got home, I cooked a healthy lunch and sat down to watch Neighbours and Home & Away.
Now, as it is coming up to the early evening I am beginning to think that I want to go out into Soho again tonight. I shouldn't, because I am planning to drink on Saturday and Sunday, but it is so tempting. I also don't know that anyone else is going to be out, so I should probably stay in and prepare myself for a hard-drinking birthday weekend. We shall see. If one person even hints that they will be out tonight I'm off!

Another Wasted Day
I am a bit angry at myself for wasting yet another day off. I have done absolutely nothing all day, spending much of the afternoon dozing in my room. I am only slightly annoyed though as I did have a good night out last night, but that is not a good enough excuse to waste the whole day, especially when there are things to do. Other than grocery shopping, I have some comics, that I sold on eBay, that need to be posted. I want to buy a new travel bag for my trip to Torquay next month, as my old one (which I bought about 18 years ago) is not even fit for the storage purpose I am now using it for. I am still on the look out for new clothes, particularly some tops and a pair of smart/casual trousers and new casual shoes. I shall have to make a concerted effort to get up early tomorrow and get some things done as over the weekend I hope to be too busy.
I am planning to go into Soho and watch the Lions Rugby match at 13:30 (if I can find out where it is being shown, now that Comptons is out of the picture as their satellite system is not working), after which I hope to stay out for some more drinks. And on Sunday I want to go out again, as that is my actual birthday, and hope to have a few friends join me for either or both event. Feel free to join us if you wish.

Great Night
So, I decided to go out for a few drinks last night, to get my birthday weekend underway (slightly early I know but who cares). I was pleased that Tim agreed to join me for a couple of drinks before heading off to other appointments. I started off in Rupert Street on my own and saw that my ex, Graham, was there too, we had a brief conversation at the bar before he headed outside and I waited for Tim. Terry was about to so, when Tim had arrived and we'd got our drinks we headed outside to see that Terry was in a group outside with my ex! Small world! We stayed with that group until we'd finished our drinks and then headed off to the Duke of Wellington, where Terry had already headed off to.
Tim had to go then so after one more drink with the crowd we started off with, who had joined us once again, I went to Comptons. Not much was happening there, but the bar manager was giving me the eye. He normally ignores me of just says "hello" and that is it. Probably because we shagged once while we were really drunk. But today he was really eyeing me up. I was tempted as he is a sexy guy, but decided against it.
I then went to Barcode to finish the evening. I didn't talk to anyone most of the time I was in there, but then got chatting to a lovely guy from Utah and ended up going back to his hotel room. I didn't get to stay the night though as he had to call his girlfriend back as she had "sounded upset" on a message she had left him. I have his email address though, so I think we will keep in touch.
It was late, or should I say early, when I eventually got home, almost 04:00 and the sky was already starting to get light. I crashed almost immediately. Luckily this morning my headache isn't too bad!
I hope my weekend is as much fun.
Tim had to go then so after one more drink with the crowd we started off with, who had joined us once again, I went to Comptons. Not much was happening there, but the bar manager was giving me the eye. He normally ignores me of just says "hello" and that is it. Probably because we shagged once while we were really drunk. But today he was really eyeing me up. I was tempted as he is a sexy guy, but decided against it.
I then went to Barcode to finish the evening. I didn't talk to anyone most of the time I was in there, but then got chatting to a lovely guy from Utah and ended up going back to his hotel room. I didn't get to stay the night though as he had to call his girlfriend back as she had "sounded upset" on a message she had left him.

Being a Good Neighbour?
I have just noticed that my gorgeous, Arab-looking, very muscular neighbour is locked out of his flat and is having to shelter from the rain in the entrance to the YMCA. I really would like to offer him some proper shelter and get him out of those wet clothes, does that make me a good neighbour or a bit of a letch?
Don't answer that!
I am off into Soho tonight, or at least that was the plan, but as I type this the rain is getting heavier and heavier, so I may change my mind. No one else is going to be out, as far as I'm aware, but I need some gayness as I am having withdrawal symptoms. Hopefully the rain will subside in the next 30 minutes. I was planning to head out around 19:00 so I have my fingers crossed for the downpour to abate.
