I keep seeing things and thinking "we can take Nilly there! We can take Nilly THERE!".
Me too. Or I think of things in NY that Nilly would like.
You never know if a girl's gonna say 'yes', or if she's gonna laugh in your face and pull out your still-beating heart and crush it into the ground with her heel.

F2F 2: Is there anybody here that hasn't slept together?
Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: New Orleans! May 20-22, 2005!

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
The employees seemed to be American (as in, USA citizens), and quite strict in following the rules.
This is because our government has recently gone insane. Not following the rules (or, in the case of my f-i-l, voicing your opinion that the rules are insane and offering suggestions on how they could be made less so) can get you investigated by the higher-ups to make sure you're not committing treason.
(And I wish I were exaggerating. My f-i-l has never been happier to be nearing retirement.)

The status is NOT quo.
NILLY!
Oh I am so sorry about the line (Cashmere cracks me up--but the DMV is nothing compared to the High Emperor of All Lines: Disney World!), but I am so excited about you coming! I will be in San Fran for the cookout as well as possibly seeing you while you're on the East Coast, and I'm very excited!
Crossing fingers and toes for you!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I've only been to an American Embassy once, and it was great compared to the next day's visit to the Canadian Consulate. Because the American Embassy in Moscow has no Russians, and they were the ones that gave me incredible grief at the Consulate. The Canadians themselves were just fine.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
NILLY!
I just bought two tri-fold futons, single bed size, and we have Ralph Lauren pure cotton sheets and soft blankets, and there will be a trip for me down to the kosher butcher to make damned suire they really are kosher, and a special set of dishes/cutlery/cookware just for Nilly, and...

You guys are the bestest. In the dictionary, when the word "bestest" is going to be there (and, yeah, I'm aware that it isn't, yet), they could put a picture of you.
And, Jessica - that's a little scary, even.

Our wings are not tired
I think Nilly needs more lines. While she's in LA I'm going to take her to the DMV. Maybe also a theme park. Now THOSE are lines.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I vote for the INS office in LA. Or I would, if I didn't like her.

Yeah, at least at Theme Parks there's usually something fun at the end of the line.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
The DMV in Boston has gotten somewhat civilized. You take a number and sit on benches until your number appears on a big screen.
