I've been watching "The Great British Baking Show" and when the contestants bring their offerings to the judges, it's often referred to as "bring it to the gingham" ... and I think of ita.
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.
The Afghan Whigs were here playing this week, and as usual, I wrote something to a music blog that a friend of mine runs. I'm mentioning it here because I dedicated it to two people: Renee, a friend of mine from the Dulli community who passed away in 2012, and ita.
I translated the piece for the Dulli board, and if you'd like, I can post it in the music thread here too.
Almost enjoyed the season finale of "Sleepy Hollow," but then I wondered what ita would have thought of destroying the Fenestella. Then I was sad.
Perhaps one day her family will write something suitable for posting on the board. Or not.
Would never pry into anything not public, but color me curious. If the board were to discuss medical information, we would all learn something about the brain and the medical establishment. I am totally biased because I loathe doctors already; and having added up the number of accidents, blows and insults to my head, well. That bears some thought on my part.
I don't want to discuss it. I prefer to not know.
Well, if the information comes out I'll read it, because in some way that's how I am, but as far as understanding why that happened, (shrugs) As they say on Homicide "You never get the why, only the how or the who."
One thing that might help some of us is knowing exactly what day she died, if that was determined. Every day from now will be a day she is not here, but that way there would be only one day when we lost her. Like the other information, it is not something we are entitled to. But if it would not violate the families privacy, I think many of us would benefit from knowing. At least one of us would. I should not speak for others.
I want to know, but I dont' want to pry. It's part and parcel with the feeling helpless about it all.
I don't think it would change anything emotionally, but there is some part of me that would want to know.
Can anyone point me towards an image of her dragonfly painting? I'm looking for some visual inspiration.
This one? [link]
