Fuffy ,'Storyteller'
A place where we can talk about ita, miss ita, and share information about memorials. The hugging started over here in Natter.
Man, I'd totally forgotten about the Batman Fact Generator.
I am wearing my Batman undies today.
-t, I would love a copy.
I'm very thankful Lee included me in her dinner plans with ita one night a few years ago. It was a lovely evening and one I think of often.
I never really met her -- she came to the Prom party at the LA F2F and was promptly three deep in Buffistas that I hardly knew either, so zipped my lip and hung back.
That was it, my only chance.
Shared with you, brenda.
I think the link in post -t "ita's thread" Jan 13, 2015 1:34:27 pm PST should work for anyone.
Do these links still work?
Two pictures, each from one of the times I was lucky enough to meet ita. Both from my USA trip:
One of the things I was most thankful for, during my LA visit, was that I got to attend a krav lesson in which ita assisted teaching (Lee, do you remember? we scheduled and re-scheduled and things got shifted and cancelled and schedules changed again, until at the very last evening of the very last day I was in LA it finally all clicked, and we were able to go).
I was lucky enough to get to study a bit from her, to share with her that thing she loved so much and was so good at. She was a really good teacher. She made *me* learn stuff about kicking and punching, and I've never before or since managed to accomplish that again. It was probably the one-of-a-kind air that she brought to it that enabled it for me.
[Edit: -t, the link opens fine for me - thank you so much for sharing that.]
Nilly, those links bring up a 404 error for me.
sj, and now?
(I've changed the privacy settings for them.)
I can see them now, Nilly.
So much love for the second one, and the krav story.
Those pictures are truly precious, Nilly.
I can see them now. Great photos, Nilly. Thanks for sharing.
