You know what they say about payback? Well I'm the bitch.

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.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Aww, Nilly!!!!

(and how did those Pi-kids get so big???)

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

I'm not crying, you're cry...no, wait, that's me.

Thank you for sharing, Nilly. That was lovely.

Also, if it helps: day camp, class, instructor or teacher is fine! Your English is perfect.

Considering we also search for the word with the correct nuance and we're native English speakers, you're doing beautifully, Nilly! (Oh, since you asked, though - the outfit in ballet - just the little one-piece with no skirt is a leotard, the skirt is a tutu...though I doubt tutu is an English word originally, I'd think it might translate...)

Oh gosh Nilly. That's so beautiful. And I love hearing about your fierce determined daughter.

Thank you.

Nilly, that's just lovely and made me very teary.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

the post count made me nervous. Thank goodness Nilly post was the reason. LOVELY!

I see things all of the time that I would have wanted to tell ita about. I know that she would love how many of us she has inspired to be fiercer, to try more things, to emulate her incredible spirit.

Love you and miss you, Nilly

Nilly = love. It's always good to see you here.

THIS. I talk to her sometimes. The only thing I still can't bring myself to do is read our old emails. For a while, we're emailing several times a day, daily. I just can't imagine when I'll be able to read those.

I just hate that the last time I had the opportunity to see her, when I was in LA, she wasn't feeling well. I told her that I didn't care, that I would be happy to see her for five minutes and give her a hug. She said no, and I let it go and thought I would see her next time, because I understood what it is like to know that your tribe sees you as a strong person, so you never want to be seen at less than your best, but I regret it so much.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Aww, Nilly.

Vortex, I get that. Obviously, I didn't have that situation with ita, but I've been through that next time and not pushing it regret. It sucks.
