“She talked a lot. Not a lot like annoying a lot, just a lot. She filled our conversations with wondrous insight and perspectives. Interesting thoughts on music and movies, which fashion trends were worthy of discussion, recipes that made my mouth water, places she had visited, and interesting people she had learned from, as well as animal husbandry and interior design, and sexual freedom. Politics never really were in her wheelhouse, too stuffy, nor were the darker bits of the nightly news, too heartbreaking. She was passionate, boisterous, and loud. A staunch advocate of honesty and vulnerability, and proudly championed the idea of happiness being an inside job. She talked a lot, and I hung on every single word.”
