I mean, it's still happening for people who haven't joined yet! I'm just heading home.
We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

A place where we can talk about ita, miss ita, and share information about memorials. The hugging started over here in Natter.

Thank you so much to Shir for setting that up. It was so nice to see some familiar faces and to "meet" some new people. I wish it had been under better circumstances. The chat is still going strong, but for me, its time to sleep. Goodnight all!

Our wings are not tired.
I've finally caught up in this thread and am about to go back to the Google+. The dog and life got in the way for a bit.
As for memories, ita joined me and others the night before the LA marathon to ingest pasta for my carb loading meal. I had met her at a couple of the F2F events, but it was special to me that she and others took time to share a table and encouragement for the race. And I was sure I had pictures, but I can't find them. I will find them.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
So good to see people and hear their voices! And everyone looked so very good and dear and so gladsome to my eyes, but Zen especially is so gorgeous I almost got tongue-tied looking at her.

Compassionately intolerant
It really was lovely to lurk in plain sight.
I found myself getting just as sad as I would have at a 3 dimensional reception and just as charmed by being with people I like so very much.
Cagney made an appearance, too.
Many thanks to Shir for organizing and as many apologies for the technical struggle.

And none of us deserving the cruelty or the grace -- Leonard Cohen
Thank you so much to Shir for organizing. It was wonderful to be there, for the short time I was able to be there.
For all who said we should do things like that more regularly, we should.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
I'm sorry I missed it. Today was a regular workday for me.

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'm sorry too. I was with my mom and finally told her about ita... Add my mother to the list of people who was very fond of a woman she had never actually met (they had spoken on the phone on 2001 when I could get internet connections but no phone. Mommy was webless and ita called her for me.)
She sends her love to you all.
