Obit is complete, will be in Sunday's LATimes and online. Thank you Ginger for grabbing the picture. Now to shower, get boxes, sharpies, packing tape, put my heart on deep freeze, and go to ita's apartment to pack.

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.

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

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I'm so glad you did this. I'm looking forward to sharing it with people who didn't meet ita.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I just read a good thing about grief here: [link] If that link doesn't take you straight to the right bit, the heading is "For Pending Death - also an update"

Karma is a cat, sleeping in my lap cuz it loves me. ~TS
I'm at ita's apartment with Moji, two cousins, and a friend from Jamaica, and they are making it so much easier to be here than I thought it would be. And they are being fairly unsentimental about much of the fandom stuff, so they want to know if y'all want anything--LotR playing cards, Crow collectible cards, dvds, shoes, books, etc. Most surprising is her art, so later I'll be posting pictures of what they're not taking, for those of you who want to keep a piece of her and the things she loved.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Oh my goodness. I would love to have something and almost don't care what.
I'm glad it's easier than expected for you to be there.
Also, I like your tag, Polgara.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I hope someone will make good use of her beautiful clothes. That's another weird thought I keep having.

I'm so glad that it's easier than you thought it would be.
