Everybody dies, Tracey. Someone's carrying a bullet for you right now, doesn't even know it. The trick is to die of old age before it finds you.

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.

I was going through a box and found a Christmas card Ed sent me maybe 15 years ago. He was a good one.

Our wings are not tired.

Ed was indeed a good one. Today was his birthday. I'm truly grateful he was a part of our lives, and oh how he is missed.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

It always galls me that Ed died before he could see the Dodgers win another World Series. Same with Ginger missing the Braves championship.

My FB memories pulled up a post from JZ where she was talking about watching Grand Budapest Hotel for the first time and praising Ralph Fiennes performance. And there was a comment there by Frankenbuddha promising to come out and visit us in San Francisco some day.

Don't postpone those trips, people!

I've been thinking of ita's thing about "Be grateful for all the gross people you didn't bang,"(She said it better, as always) often of late. Easier said than done, Hec. But hopefully we won't wait forever.

I did not know DX well, but I put him in COMM a lot. I think I'm a sucker for that East Coast vibe.

I was just unpacking my Christmas bins to get decorated and came across a couple of previous year's cards from Ed, featuring Opus of course.

Wish ita could have seen his arrival at Silver Foxiness: [link]

Maybe there's a picture of him barefoot somewhere...

I went in to add a new shipping address for a Christmas purchase on Etsy, and I still have amyth's in there from the year I was her secret santa.
