gegenschein
It sucks to only remember to update LJ when someone passes, but yeah, the world lost gegenschein. We met ages ago in person, when we were visiting South FL. She moved to GA not long after we moved away, but we'd continued to keep in touch via LJ and then FB (she was literally the first person to post on my wall). Watching her grow as a human -- giving birth, shifting relationships, finding a career path -- was always a delight, and this feels sudden and fucking wrong. I've got eight LJ friends in common with her, and if any of you are still reading, figured you'd want to know.
