Oh Nilly. I'm so touched.
Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

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.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Yet again Call the Midwife has ita'd me.
That show, man...

Tonight Casper and I heard Nnedi Okrafor speak at the library and I'm thinking of ita.

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

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
There is a woman in one of my classes who is president of the college's Black Student Association. There was a racist graffiti incident on campus a couple of weeks ago, and she's been in the forefront of the student response. This week she showed up in class with an ita style crewcut (albeit not a blonde crewcut), and it took me a second to realize that it her and not the ghost of ita who'd walked into my class that day.

The status is NOT quo.
Omnis, aka B.C., passed away two years ago today. I miss him. I want to know what he would have thought of all the movies, the politics, the current events that have happened since he died.

Our wings are not tired.
I believe it was our visit for your wedding that we met BC. We talked with him for a long time and are so grateful that we spent that short time with him. A very hard loss for the many who loved him.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I miss B.C.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
I think of BC every now and then. And since I can never remember for the first 1-2 seconds that he is now dead, it is always with a smile.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Hey, all, popping in for a moment.
So I am going to Jamaica in September. We will be in Negril; I don't even know if ita's family has a headstone, but if so, I imagine it's close to Kingston maybe, and we're not traveling there.
I wasn't superclose to ita, but I liked and admired her enormously. I plan on taking a space out of an evening to have a quiet moment to honor her.
I don't know if any Buffistas have been to Jamaica since she passed, but if anyone has a candle, an object, or words of their own I can be a voice for, I'm planning on taking time to remember her and I would be honored to carry them when I go.
I'll be thinking of her fondly and wistfully the whole time anyway.
