Jayne (Husband): Oh, I think you might wanna reconsider that last part. See, I married me a powerful ugly creature. Mal (Wife): How can you say that? How can you shame me in front of new people? Jayne (Husband): If I could make you purtier, I would. Mal (Wife): You are not the man I met a year ago.

A place where we can talk about ita, miss ita, and share information about memorials. The hugging started over here in Natter.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I saw the photos of Harvey Guillen at the Met Gala and, at first, thought he was wearing pink gingham. I don't think he was, but he'd be a worthy addition to the Pink Gingham Junta, wouldn't he.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

It wasn't pink gingham, but he did look spectacular at the Met Gala, and I think he'd be darling in pink gingham.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

And we know he can do a spectacular fight scene.

Our wings are not tired.

Today was Frandenbuddha's birthday. Gone far too soon. Tipping my imaginary bowler hat in memory.

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

One of his old comments rolled up in my FB memories where he said he wanted to come out to SF to visit me and JZ.

Never happened.

It makes me a sad that we found out about Frank and Connie and DXM so late after the fact through obits and family comments on social media.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

I had a dream last night about realizing I'd not seen someone online in a while, and all of us (not this community, but another) having the same realization, and trying and contact her and make sure she was okay.

Today was Ouise's birthday, so remember her and be grateful that she was a part of our lives.

I really enjoyed being her Secret Santa.

hip deep in pie

I thought I posted yesterday...hmmm...must not have hit post. I was thinking about Ouise a lot yesterday. It would have been her 50th.

The last time I saw her was about a month before she died, and it was hard for her to speak for long without needing to stop and take a breath. But she was still taking singing lessons! And that day she asked Anita and I to wait while she had her lesson. And through the door we could hear this strong, steady voice singing in Italian. It was truly the most amazing thing.

What a lovely memory.
