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.
I may be love's bitch, but at least I'm man enough to admit it.

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.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Her search to get everything perfect. Fucking oatmeal, man.
Her lament of almost everything being too sweet.
Lemon bars!

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Where's the damn like button on these posts?

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated
I was pouring fizzy SodaStream water for lunch and thought about the lemon stuff she put in hers -- RealLemon?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I had True Lime in my water. The kind without sweetener, of course.
BTW, ita shared an Evernote notebook of recipes with me a while back. I have archived it into a notebook that I can share with any of you that want.
Crap, we'll never know what the best apple is.

If I only had a brain...
-t, if I could bake something today I would feel much, much better. Do you feel like linking it openly?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I loved her toughness about assumptions or ideas or anything fuzzy. Made for some of the most spirited, memorable, funny and Buffistas-ish discussions on this Board. She had no fear about stirring things up--but always in a quest-for-answers way. She didn't want trouble, she wanted truth.

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
The link thing has me laughing. One of a million and one things to miss about ita.
I think LAistas will be needed, if you can, to help ita's family when they get here. They're looking for flights/hotel to come and take care of her, but they will need help sorting ita's belongings and getting around, I would think. The coroner and courthouse are Downtown, and ita's place is West LA, and the traffic between the two is insane. If it's possible, I would like to put together a small contact list of people who can help them if they need to get someplace or navigate bureaucracy.
I wish I could help. We are moving to NC next week. I can check in here and see if there's anything I can do.

I can't figure out how to just post a link to it, Betsy, or I would. Should be shared with your profile address now.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"
I'll have to go back up and start from the beginning, but thank you for opening this thread.
I think one of the last things ita said to me was "Yes, but I have a moon." I said, " Oh sure, play the moon card, you win."
