Um... Yay!
As some of you know, I actually live on Hollywood Blvd., here in Hollywood. I live in a beautiful building in a spacious loft, over looking the hookers, sex shops, gang members, street kids, character performers and tourists. I absolutely love the juxtaposition. It's probably the closest thing to "New York living" in LA. Right outside my front door I can easily walk to a number of restaurants, movie theaters, shops, music and book stores, clothing outlets, nightclubs and everything in between. Today, however, is a dark day on Hollywood Blvd. as a cloud has appeared above. A cloud... In the shape of The Hollywood Christmas Parade! Sure, some people like parades and that's fine. The problem is that we, the residents of this particular building, are trapped here! We are unable to access our vehicles for the majority of the day, leaving us to endure the glitter, marching bands, cast of High School Musical and Dick Van Patten. It's really going to be "something". Thank God for The History Channel! Yeah, I'll glance out the window every once in a while, but this day is pretty much going to be dedicated to UFO Files, 48 Hours and Nip/Tuck.

Well, sounds like how my Sunday is going, except I can leave!
However, I am comfortable right here!
Would you consider a Sunday 10 or a Sunday SRL?
If not, enjoy your shows! Which is it? The FIRST 48 hrs,48 hrs Investigates, or 48 hrs with Nick Nolte and Eddie Murphy?
Catch some Forensic files if you can:)
Enjoy the day= KISSES-Db

HAha! Well I must admit that really sucks! But I have to also admit that most of this day has gone by without so much of a crawl out of bed to Feed the kids! I swear they need to get jobs! Little Fuckers!!! lol Anyway, I dont understand why we do this to ourselves! The whole country has Overdosed on turkey! Same shit every year! You would think we would learn! Honestly the lack of sleep from being excited last week about seeing DAve and then the whole Thanksgiving on top of the fact that Yoli is coughing all night long! Is really kicking my ass! But I must crawl out of bed and get shit done today even though it is already 4:00pm. Hey better late then never! BTW Dave we are watching the UFO files too. Love the History Channel!!!
XOXOXO

I know exactly what you are going through. But I moved so it doesn't matter now. I used to leave really early and not come back until it was over or do exactly what you are doing. Hang in there!

Oh Oh - poor you! Sending sympathy!
There's a carnival every year here too and either you leave your home early and stay out all day, or you stay in.
Have fun with the remotes. Enjoy the enforced chill out zone!
It's great to have news from you regularly.
Was waiting to see if you'd answered any questions, maybe you'll surprise us later if you're bored?
Hope you're feeling better!

oh 2 b trapped 4 24 hrs in a loft with dave navarro unable 2 leave the building:)..gawd we would definitely not waste time 2 much time with watching UFO files...of course if the parade was the gay mardi gras like we have through sydney in march with their floats which is like a high school musical in boas and gold g-strings it might interest you slightly more the last thing to block off our city was geaorge bush visiting the place 4 a week which threw sydney into lockdown...ha enjoy the chill out zone write a song 4 me dave...x

Have you started your Xmas shopping Dave?
Take Care...

Wow Dick Van Patten???? Now that's what I call a mother fucking parade! ;-)
Well we had the Macy's Thanksgiving day parade and that shit goes on for HOURS. Though did you see the float Gibson had this year? 2 HUGE sunburst Les Pauls on each side! Personally I thought they should of had Slash on it instead of Wynonna Ryder. When you see a Les Paul does Wynonna come to mind?

Bird Vaczine- Glad to see that KISS is the main focus of that video.
I thought they gave up doggin on them for Satan worship years ago?>
I had to deal with it through my teen years and beyond/ WOW! is all I can say about that video. IGNORANCE at it's finest:(

Thank god you said something...i was totally planning on going to Hollywood & Highland today to kill some time. That would've been a fuckin mess!!
Enjoy Nip/Tuck...are you caught up to the current season yet, or still working on the 4th? The new season is pretty good. There's a lot more comedy, but seems like it's slowly getting back to the dark and gritty shit that we all love!

"Trapped In My Loft, With My..." Well doesn't sound or look as good as our R Kelly lyric. Welcome to City Life sir Navarro. Isn't it exciting?! YAY to being stuck with the Tube, no makeup, and bed head!
Peace~

a les paul is worth stealing wynonna:)you can sew a dress...hell i could sew a valentino if i put my mind to it whereas crafting guitars is an art...tell us about your custom fave guitars and i do hope you don't sleep with any of them like they said bruce springsteen used to...the guy from silverchair has a separate room for his...how many guitars are in your stable baby?

...besides the fact a musician should never resort to the box(and i mean the tv) 4 entertainment when you're so wonderfully gifted it'd be a travesty...a sacrilege to not get your fucking guitar out and do sumthin spectacularly creative like write a song about christmas... everbody else does:)

I think you planned the Parade!!!
Just needed a hint of an excuse to be able to lie on the sofa and catch up on watching some or you favourite Shows.
Though, you don't need any excuse, who do you need to answer to. If you want to close the curtains and spend the day in fantasy world SO BE IT!!

...did i mention how rocked out:) a performance last year's camp freddy looked even 30cm wide on a screen girl's in pink cavorting around you...it was cute...are you more inclined now towards SPREAD and Skribble than camp freddy...achieved a bit this year with a variety of projects are you feeling satisfied:)

...and if you have had the flu you obviously need the day 2 kick back and do absolutely nothing...the body needs to quiten the metabolism down to give the immune system time to kick into gear...i'd suggest a footbath whilst watching nip/tuck with some kind of scented oil...rosemary oil...not to be confused with rosemary's baby he's washing his feet like jesus not devil worshipping here;)

Oh Dave, you poor thing!
Actually, I feel bad for you. There is nothing like being trapped, and that is how it feels. Same way as I feel when I go vacation with the in-laws..... TRAPPED!
Maybe the history channel will have a show on the history of parades....... Love ya fellow!
Always,
me

Hmm wow America is a such car orientated society, Why not walk? Then catch a bus or tube from where it is not so busy? I'm sure you could put on a disguise.
Personally, I'd crawl with two broken legs to get away from an oncoming High School Musical float.

Poor baby, I hate fucking parades too! I'm sure the parade of hookers are far more interesting to watch. HaHa
You could have done a man on the street segment, I would love to have heard those interviews.
This is a classic post, it's like reading the first few paragraphs of a book, you either can't wait to hear what happens next, or you get bored and put it away. You really know how to capture a reader!!!

Totally caught up with the last 3 Nip/Tuck and dude!…. you are absolutely correct, Kelly
Carlson sure makes smoking crack look HOT…lol (at least that’s what I think their smoking, you’d figure they’d be paranoid & puking…not doing the nasties…lol) this season is just getting darker and darker…good stuff. The History Channel totally rocks…we’re also into the Sci/Fi channel; Ghost Hunters is a great show.
Nice to see that Mar and I have new Myspace buddies…Ambersonian and Danni from ND. Hello ladies, it seems we all have something in common… YAY!
Glad to know you got plenty of R&R this weekend…it was very much needed! Have a great week, be safe and God Bless you PaPa…
Lotsa love!

That video was hilarious! If I'd known of the Satanist's depraved sexual rituals I would have joined a long time ago. I wonder if Satanists do it missionary style?
