Gulp. Such a hard thing to have to do. Thinking of you guys, and hoping it can be completed with the least anguish possible.

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.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
Much ~ma to all of you there, Polgara. I would like to ask for something from ita's apartment too - not for myself, but for Nilly. It's shabbos here so it's unlikely she'll see your kind offer in time.
Edited to add: of course, only if shipping here is not too much trouble. I'd happily pay for it.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
It could serve as a kind of wake - "I remember seeing this right after she drew it" "Remember when she got these boots?"
Only sober.

Dana, I know. I thought that, too, when I remember all the self-portraits on her tumblr; she was a very natty dresser.
Polgara, I'm very glad that some of the weight has been lifted off your shoulders. Your hair rivals Allyson's in its shininess.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
She was so deliberate about her clothing choices. I hope anyone who gets any part of her wardrobe loves it as much as she does.
Fuck verb tense for the moment.

Polgera, if there is anything that seems like it needs a gothy home, please send it my way.
You all have my love and support. Please take care of yourselves.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
I feel selfish for asking, but I would dearly love a tiny keepsake. I don't need anything to remember her by, because how could I forget, but really, anything tiny -- a rock, a book, a magnet. I'd pay postage.
We had so many conversations about Octavia Butler, and she was the only person I'd met that really dug the hell out of her.
But I absolutely don't want to cause anyone any bother, because this is hard enough.
Goddamit, I'm all fucking tearing up again.

I never had much personal communication with ita, so I don't need a keepsake. I will remember her; my new tagline is in her honor.

Our wings are not tired.
Toddson, that's beautiful.
