On a live wire right up off the street
You and I should meet
Junebug skipping like a stone
With the headlights pointed at the dawn
We were sure we'd never see an end to it all
And I don't even care to shake these zipper blues
And we don't know
Just where our bones will rest
To dust I guess
Forgotten and absorbed into the earth below
1979 is my favorite song from one of my favorite bands, the Smashing Pumpkins. I spent the latter part of my childhood growing up in a small town USA and eventually became an alternative music junkie. When I entered my 30s, I found myself become another type of addict, a CL addict.
I have been wanting to do a collection thread for a long time, but I kept giving myself the excuse of one more pair. Just wait one more pair. However I was looking at 4 pairs on waitlists somewhere for the Fall 2011 collection, I knew I would never see the end of that excuse. Once I was determined to do a collection thread, I wanted it to be special and different. But I have never been creative enough to stand above the crowd, therefore I decided to just be myself and let my CLs do the talking for me.
I know this collection thread is 934,527,873 days overdue, I apologize for being so late. So wait no more, here it is!
