Today is a day to remember DXM on his birthday. It is a tough thread because we have lost so many, but it is also a reminder that we would never have had these people in our lives if it weren't for this place. I think of Ed so often and miss his warmth and spicy brains. I'm so grateful to have known him.
Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

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.

"Somewhere in this building is our talent." Toby Ziegler, my spirit animal
I COMM-ed him a lot. There have been a lot of us, so I'm not sure I ever get to know any one person as I might want to in a perfect world, but I enjoyed his company while I had it.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Me too.

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

The status is NOT quo.
I was just thinking that.

Far too many, but I like having a spot to come to when I see something or hear something that reminds me of one of our loved ones. It happens often, and we should share these moments.

On that note, I'll say that I had Ouise as my Secret Santa one year and I sent her the Edward Gorey Cardboard Dracula Theater, and I think of her every time I see it for sale at Borderland Books. And I remember the sweet remembrances of the Haligonians talking about listening to her sing at her choir even as she neared the end.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I keep having dreams of f2f gatherings with Buffistas. I miss all of you that I don’t get to see in person or online as much anymore, and I hate how many wonderful people we’ve lost.
