The odd one out
Last night I stayed up late playing poker. I know i said i was going to quit, but the little red poker icon on my computer looks oh soo appealing in times of extreme boredom. I really should have acted on my own advice. Within about 5 minutes i had lost £50. I then made the age old mistake of chasing my losses. I put another £50 in my poker account and hit the tables once again. 30 minutes later I had ammased arround £400. Not bad yeah. Except by this stage I was pretty drunk. I thought it would be a good idea to try and double my money to £800. So I raised my stakes, but forgot to raise my game. Within 10 minutes I had lost it all.

By this afternoon I was getting stir crazy. I decided to go to leeds (the big smoke arround 30 mins drive away). I had only planned to go for a walk arround, do a little window shopping (poor mans shopping). Little did I know that
Hugo Boss and Harvey Nicks (the place creditcards go to die) were having their summer sale. I dare not question quite how much I spent. Put it this way, I was physically shaking at the cash desk in Boss when the goregous assistant asked for my plastic.
To steady my nerves I went to
Queens Court (a not that pretentious gay bar) for a couple of stolli's.

Was I seeing this right? I was the only single person in there. I felt soo fucking low reading my paper. When did this happen?
Even the Fugly people had paired off. I have always felt like an outsider, oddball, a social reject even, but this was the proof I did not want. I am the hopeless. Its a dam good job I have my reliable firend "Platinum Plastic" to keep me company. If I didnt have an important meeting tomorrow morning I'd have ended it all there and then. I can see the headlines now.
"DEATH IN DIOR - Singletons Suicide after Harvey Nicks Binge" .
Fuckit, atleast Ill go looking fab.

Sunday
Party time
Miss E and I partied hard in Harrogate this weekend. As we both had limited funds we didn't hit the clubs until midnight. Which meant we could get drunk as skunks whilst watching the latest big brother eviction. I was soo happy when Davina called out Lisa's name. Our first stop was
Ministry of Sounds Minibar.

Although we didn't have to queue (
I refuse to queue anywhere), we did have to pay (maybe they read my last review on here) I still cant make my mind up about this place. It's visually stunning, but the dance floor is too small, and the music doesn't quite hit the spot. But on the whole if you looking for place to drink with
the beautiful set in beautiful surroundings (Im not part of the beauty set, but im a good faker. "fake it till you make it") then this is the only place to be. My brother rung me about 2am and asked me to meet him at the doors. The cheeky bastard told me he was going to Moko, and that he only wanted my money. Back inside, me, Miss E and our newly acquainted Australian Friend Mr ? (Im crap with names) had a couple more Stolli Redbulls a dance and then we left for Moko to meet my Bro. By the time we reached the club we were all
very, very drunk, and spent the next 2 hours drinking ourselves into a stupor, and we danced like we'd never dance again.
Saturday morning, I felt rather funky to say the least. Its now sunday and I can still taste the tequila and redbull. It was a great night tho.
On another note I have been imortalised on bryanboys blog, doing the now infamous byranboy pose, i must say though Im not looking my best in the photo.Finally, ive gone freelance bitches. I start working with my first ever client later this week. A firend of a freind approached me last month and asked if I would be his part time accountant, saying that he'd heard good things about me. Who the hell has he been talking to? Personally Ive never heard a good word be said about me. Maybe the parents have been paying people off (bribing) again. I for one dont care, It inflated my ego a little, plus the extra money will come in handy for my spain/dubai fund.
Later Bitches. xx

Thursday
NEW
With not a great deal else to do, I decided to celebrate my very existence yet again, with yet another pair of sunnys. It has always been one of my biggest ambitions to amass
the worlds greatest collection of sunglasses.
Unfortunatley, its about 5degrees, cloudy and raining so i had to settle for the shades inside, club junkie, poser look. Now im no Brad, but i dont look that bad today. Its amazing what an uber expensive densist, several sunbeds (
yes this is me with a tan), some designer clobber and a pair of shades can do. Although I still believe Cheek implants are the way forward. I gave my surgeon a call the other day and he's quoted me 4k ish for the op. Knowing my luck it'll be the start of yet another expensive addiction, and i dont wanna end up like the
old hag below.

Three guesses what im doing tomorrow..... Yep you guessed right, Im off shopping to leeds. Id love to see what I look like when I shop. I dont mean buying the odd item here and there, I mean full on shopping carnage, I get a glazed over look and rush arround the shops like an
mental institution escapee. When I get in my shopping zone nothing can or does get in the way of me and a bargain. I some how mannage to convince my self that everything is a bargain, regardless of the cost, and that if I dont swipe platinum that very second my world will come crashing in arround me.
Watch out Leeds is all I can say.

Tuesday
6am
I woke up at 6am this morning, god im getting so corporate theese days, and im not even working this morning. I going to seeing my dentist, and i cant stand him. Last year I told him I wanted a little cosmetic work done (to the tune of about 5k), and since that day he keep hasseling me like a door to door salesman. I may just have the work done just to shut the ugly fucker up.
I decided to use my time this morning to finally open my months post (mostly bills of some description). I have spend £200 on my taxi account this month.
Im such a fucking moron, I could have hired a part time driver for that ammount. So I have yet another expense to cut back on. But what am I expected to do walk. At least now I have hard evidence to back up my mantra
"i dont drive, im driven".Im soo over poker. Although I love the game, I cant seem to win any more. Up until June I used to be able to turn $50 into several hundered $'s every time I played. This month is a different story. Turns out (after reading one of my bank statements) that ive spent nearly £500 at the tables this month.
Again Im such a fucking moron. That could have been my flights no NY, or atleast a monster hangover. So im quitting the game. Yet more time i need to fill. I seriously need something to do with my new found time, preferably something wich doesnt require amex.
I need to become the secret of some Middle Eastern new monied closeted oil Sheik. I have an air hostess friend who's illustrious affair with a married Dubai tycoon resulted in a child. For life she now recieves a superstar salary just to keep quiet. Not bad at all, from a £20k/ year flying waitress to a £100k+/year just for a couple of shags. Any closeted Oil barrons reading get in toutch, for £100k/ year for life I can be your little secret, infact i'll even stretch the offer to russian billionaires, maffia dons or premiership footballers.

Monday
What now ??
Its all over. My exams that is. My 3 year course is potentially over (resits permitting). I should be elated, I remember far too many occasions when I wish I didnt have to study, that I could just join everybody having fun. I have voluntarily missed out on countless hollidays, parties, club openings, nights sleep, etc etc.
But now that its all over I kinda miss it. I guess I feel a little empty inside. And the worst thing is that Ive got
3 months to kill until my next and final 3 year course starts.
I need a new hoby, like smack or crack. Hell its kept Pete Dohety pretty busy these past few years. If its good enough for an overated overpaid junkie "rockstar" its good enough for me. Only Ill have to make cutbacks in my already streatched budget to afford the habbit.
Let me tell you, its not cheap being me. Oh since we spoke last my family have fired our
Rosario, the result of an redicously over the top discussion (fullblown, almost violent argument)about taking responsibility. Great, so my summers gonna be spent scrubbing floors and dusting. Yeah fucking right.
Its practically third world conditions here at the moment. Next they'll be shopping at Morrisons, and
swapping the 5 star hotels for a week at Butlins. If that ever happens fucking shoot me, no scrap that, ill shoot them and spend their hard earned on a life filled with
copious ammounts of cocaine, caviar (even though it tastes vile) bolly and £5000 a night hookers.
I really need to find something to fill my summer, its only been 3days and im already restless. suggestions as usual to thegaygate@hotmail.co.uk
Music wise Im currently loving :The Gossip - "Standing in the way of controll" - blues punk funk. Hot Chip - "boy from school" & "over and over" funky electro summer vibes. Gnarles Barkley "Smiley faces", bluesy dance music. You Say Party, we say die - "Apocolypse Now" theyre like a new arcade fire. James Morrison - "Better Man", a truely beautiful song . Royksopp - "What Else is there". dark deep elecrto. Bob Sinclair - "World,Hold on" fresh summer club classic. Infernal - "From Paris to Berlin" for the handbag/manbag factor, complete with the now infamous lasoo dance.
more in the week...
