You're not friends. You'll never be friends. You'll be in love till it kills you both.

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.

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.

Pang.

I was Ouise's Secret Santa one year. I sent her the Gorey Dracula paper stage set.

The WFMU lunchbox I got from Tom as my Secret Santa is prominently displayed at the new house.

The Judy Garland box I got from Laura one year is on temporary loan to a friend who was going through a tough stretch and is a huge Judy fan.

I had just met a guy who did animal portraits at a benefit and for Secret Santa I reached out and had him do a sketch of Amyth’s Lulu, who had passed recently. I think that was my favorite Santa.

I always remember ita's birthday because she shares it with my sister. Not the only day of the year when I think of her, but a day I always think of her. Just a couple days ago I saw a young man resting in front of a Jamaican grocery drinking a Ting, and I smiled.
