Love Parade


Funny how it always rains when you are planning on spending the day outside, today was the LOVE PARADE in berlin, where very odd people like to get all dressed up in thier most gaudy extravagant costumes, or in some cases some take as many clothes off as possible, now when you fantasize about it is great but in reality the brave man who wears his little leather g-string and a pair of leather chaps looks more like your grandfather than the Male Model you had been hoping to see. I of course being the Tipsy Tart I am, had to squeeze myself in my shortest tightest leatherette dress - Red of course and the highest pair of stilletto boots i could possibly find, Braved the cobblestone sidewalks in search of the AIDS HELP WAGON, 200 meters in a pair of stillettos on cobblestone is like a lifetime, in fact i think i have figured out what hell is, you arrive to see a wardrobe of the most extravagant beautiful designer clothes and shoes, ooooh shopping, hell cant be that bad right? well the catch is you have to put on the 6 inch designer jimmy choo stilettos, the Jean-Paul Gaultier corset and yoou have to walk on coblestone in the rain FOREVER! well luck was on my side, that and the taxi rank, well i dragged myself into the closest cab, Hotel da Roma I said in a thick Italian accent, well off we went and 10 euro later I had arrived, now the problem was where on earth were all the other strangely dressed people, did i have the wrong day (this has happened to me before) The door was oppened to my surprise by the bellboy of the hotel, Thank you darling I say and stroll off through the piazza away from the hotel to his surprize, this Tart is on a mission to find the other people dressed up for this occasion! another hundred or so meters over the coblestone piazza and the decision is made! i will grin and bear the pain shooting through my lets because I look HOT, and who cares if i am flashing my Superman underwear because my dress is tooo short, and to hell with it walking like a Truck driver in Stilletos can be sexy too right!
I am closer to the end of my Mission to hang out on the truck number 41 with my Pornstar DJ friend Jan Fischer, the first wagon is in sight, Wagon 41 happens to be a 10 minute walk away, it is the last one in the Parade! It starts to rain, but between the pain the rain and the coblestone LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL, I AM BEAUTIFUL and i got to dance throught the streets of berlin for the last time in a while!
