Sorry, Captain. I'm real sorry. I shoulda kept better care of her. Usually she lets me know when something's wrong. Maybe she did, I just wasn't paying attention...

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.

Our wings are not tired.

Today on the anniversary of his birth we give gratitude for the far too brief time we had with BC, aka omnis_audis. I certainly didn't know him well, but we spent quite a bit of time talking with him at the Pix/Drew wedding party. He left a strong impression. The impact he had on so many lives is quite a lovely legacy.

Thank you, Laura. He would have been 50 yesterday. Drew and I both thought about him and raised a glass in his memory.

He was a very dear friend of mine, from long before he joined the board. We interacted in many different spheres and his presence is still keenly missed in all of them.

Remembering Ginger on her birthday. I am grateful that she was a part of our life and I do miss her so often.

I was just thinking about her yesterday, as the Braves took the lead in the series, and wishing Mr. Peabody scritches wherever he is.

Glad I got to see her house and her collection of original science fiction/fantasy art going back to her convention organizing days.

Her home was so comfy. And the library!!!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I slept in her library the week of the Atlanta F2F, on an antique daybed--except for the one night I made Sail switch with me to give my back a break. Joy! And the dog. I'm so glad I got to know her. I'm so glad she found us. After her first round of chemo she told me when she didn't feel able to do anything she followed Bitches, and was warmed and heartened by the knowledge other snarky, fun people were having lives and love and silliness and sorrow and...everything. And felt the possibility she would have those things again too. And I've been so grateful she de-lurked and became One of Us for the time we had her company.

I wish Ginger could have seen the Braves win tonight.

Wish DXM could've seen the Dodgers win last year.

Wish ita could have seen Black Panther.
