ita's thread

A place where we can talk about ita, miss ita, and share information about memorials. The hugging started over here in Natter.

Yeah, I think I'm mostly stuck in denial. It's such an odd feeling, to know that she's gone, and yet to also be able to go back and see her words anytime I want. Her words were how I knew her, and they're still there.

That's where I am.

I've really appreciated reading the couple of links over to O-Deck. There's something really touching about knowing something of this other group of people who had such appreciation and admiration for ita. There are so many of those in the world that I'll never see; it's nice to see this one.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

That picture of her with Colin's Little Man just killed me again- they had such a beautiful friendship.

Also hello O-deckers! I love that you love her too.

She is passing into legend.

I remember watching the awful US Coupling because her friend Colin was in it. And mailing her something to his address (a dozen years ago or so) because she was house sitting or something. Think it was the garnet bracelet that resembled something she'd been admiring. Don't even remember where the bracelet originally came from.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I remember watching the awful US Coupling because her friend Colin was in it.

Yes! And I told her to tell him he was the only good thing about it (and that he was way hotter than his UK counterpart, though I doubt she told him that).

At least US Coupling introduced us to Jay Harrington?

I hadn't seen the picture CF posted. Such a beautiful picture of her!

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

We've collected just under 7k for ita's family.

The money will be used to pay for their lodging and misc. travel and funeral expenses, memorial brunch, and obituary.

We're going to pack up her apartment this weekend.

The family would like to start a scholarship fund in her name in Jamaica, where education $$ will go a long way.

Just let us know if you need more, Allyson. I would like to donate more for a scholarship fund- I love the idea of it being in Jamaica

You have very, very pretty hair.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Your hair is so very pretty, Allyson. Much love to everyone doing these tasks this weekend, necessary but so hard and so unfair.

I'm unsure how to get in touch with Odeck with scholarship info once they set it up. Hec or PolterCow have accounts, yes?

I'm sorry if I've asked before. I think I remember, but then, it's just a sea of static between my ears.

I used to be smart and resourceful. Remember that?
