I’ve come to love those moments
This is so nice. Having everyone together for my birthday. Of course, you could smash in all my toes with a hammer and it will still be the bestest Buffy Birthday Bash in a big long while.

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.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
I was reminded of ita this weekend - there was an article about a woman who'd wanted her hair cut really short and most women's salons couldn't manage it. She tried barbers but some of them wouldn't cut it short enough and at all barber shops she had to endure comments from the barbers and other customers. So she started her own business - which is doing well - called Lady Clippers. All women, both customers and hair cutters.

I have one vote from Connie Neil left in my “Y” tag. And I cannot bring myself to delete it.
Amyth's still in my contacts. Someday I'll have a catastrophic phone sync/database failure and that info will be gone. But not until then.

Ginger, ita, Amyth, all are forever in my contacts.

Today is the anniversary of Amyth's birth. This was a very hard loss for our community, but today I would like to remember the grace and joy she brought to our lives.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
I miss her so much. She was truly such a joy to be around.

If I only had a brain...
I have never been able to bear removing ita from my address book. I'll never see her again, but she's still there.

Because books.
Same, Betsy. She's in my phone contacts, and always will be. Amyth, too.
It's always going to hurt to think about the people we've lost from this community, and how much each of them brought to it.

Another memorial birthday, and while I feel the wave of sorrow when I post them in this thread, I still want to take it as an opportunity to be grateful for the time we had with them.
Today is the birthday of omnis_audis. A special person who had an impact on so many lives. Rest in peace BC. You are missed.
