now this is cool

I am having the best freaking 'conversation' with another live journal user that I found in a really round about way...because she's from Arkansas and liked commander salamander. Two things I am very peculiar about. So I had to introduce myself. I have a feeling I was a bit clumsy, but it seemed important.

Many of my friends from Fayettenam have moved on or slipped away except for benny, jason, eric and greg. I'm feeling nostalgic. NOT because I want to go back, but because we are getting ready to have our own kids and it makes me think about how and where I was raised.


Commander Salamander was a shop I found in DC in 1983 when I went to debate camp at Georgetown . I'd just started getting into new wave music the last two years THEN I found the clothes and I was hooked. It changed everything for me--I was a freak already, but this way I could be a colorful freak and there were others like me.

*sigh*

I've got to hit the torture exercise device then work on getting some rescued kittens adopted...I think we'll be bringing ANOTHER one home (gads, four cats) and naming him mr. teatime.

Never even heard of CS BUT do vividly recall the wonderfulness of Merry Go Round at the ripe young age of 13 PARACHUTE PANTS!!!!
