I wanted to wear something in her honour ("u" for ita) and after rejecting several things that weren't quite right, I thought of my Clinique Black Honey lipstick. Amazing lipstick that I wouldn't have found if not for ita telling of its magical property of looking good on everyone.
I like the way the walls go out. Gives you an open feeling. Firefly is a good design. People don't appreciate the substance of things. Objects in space. People miss out on what's solid.

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.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I am trying to shift my feelings toward being happy that I knew her and appreciating her general awesomeness and these COMMs are helping.
That "have a wake" exchange is amazing and sad and happy all together.
That was wonderful. Thank you again for sharing, Allyson.

Thinking of you all.
And I wanted to make sure that those who loved her dearly saw this, from J. August.
I remember seeing the squealing when he mentioned her on Tim's Facebook. ita gave off such a cool vibe, so knowing about her fondness for J. always tickled me.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Aww, dang.
How was she so wrong about Weetabix? I just had a small meltdown about not having told her that a week or two ago.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
And I wanted to make sure that those who loved her dearly saw this, from J. August.
Wow. Just, wow.

Our wings are not tired.
And more tears.
I am grateful that my family and friends locally all knew I was a Buffista. They all knew about me going to the F2Fs and having my on line friends visit. It is easier to not have to explain my grief.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister
Not surprised to see J. August's tribute. Everybody knew ita was just the shit. Teary again.
