An everlasting regret will be that I never got to meet her in person. She was so dynamic and larger-than-life, however, I kinda always felt as if I had.
Buffy: A Guide, but no water or food. So it leads me to the sacred place and then a week later it leads you to my bleached bones? Giles: Buffy, really. It takes more than a week to bleach bones.
'Dirty Girls'
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.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Did anyone contact Beverly?

Beverly saw the news last night. I don't remember if she's posted here, but she commented on my DW.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I need to tell mommy. ita called her after the terrorist attacks when I could get internet and not phone. She was profoundly grateful and still asks about my internet friend with the beautiful voice.

I may have to seize the cat.
amyth and amych, I'm still in Durham. What time will you be at Fullsteam? I've got rehearsal that evening but it's downtown, so I might still be able to make it. If I do, I hope ita won't mind my having a Cheerwine in her honor, rather than a beer.

Because books.
I'm sitting in a rest stop on the PA turnpike crying. I'm so glad everyone is posting and I hate the reason for it. I still can't believe it. I've been thinking of her while driving, and every once in a while it hits me that she's really gone. I had things to tell her.

I called my DH and told him as soon as I could. And of course my son saw me crying this morning and gave me a big hug and he is a huge Firefly fan so he said "Your friend the moon girl?"
Which is the least ita description ever, and yet also true.
It's like a huge chunk of the Internet just died. If you guys hadn't all clearly heard the same news or experienced it, I would be trying to disbelieve it.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Yes bonbon! Specific. She was so specific in almost everything. The type of silver earring she liked, her breakfast cereal, haircut.
It made it hard to have even OATMEAL this morning because of that.
