She's gone. We were talking about making dinner after Covid.

Today I learned that a wonderful silly human, excellent writer, famous for her cooking and her purple pigtails, her sparkly pens, her subversive encouragement of neighborhood children to shenanigans ie things like glitter bombing. She was an excellent writer and frequent contestant on
therealljidol, LJ Idol, for many years.

A loving friend, snarkmeister, and yarn addict, has Gone Into The West.

Saw the news on Facebook from a mutual friend.

She was lj-user mac_arthur_park.

Alicia deserved a better break in life. Her grin and her joyful attitude were both contagious and loving.

Oh this hurts. Wasn't Covid. Was some pre-existing condition neither she not her doctor had on their radar.

...dammit. I was serious about flying out to fuckin' North Carolina to meet her and buy all the groceries for making a giant feast for her and all her People after this Covid bullshittery was sorted.

I'm feeling wrecked.

Gods. Her poor Spousebeast... 😭😭😭

Wonderful silly human. Yes. Such a lovely soul. And she smelled good. Some of us are going to take up a collection for the Spousebeast. I will post about it when I know more details.

I wound up talking to the spousebeast's sister last night on FB chat. I offered to help, and yes, I'd like to know if/when a collection happens.
She said they grocery shop at Harris Teeter when I asked, so that's one option.

I would be interested in participating.

Oh, damn :(

I'm so sorry for your loss, and her death.

It's never easy, but harder in a lot of ways when it's more sudden and unexpected.
