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.

Santa Monica's like that, plus with appointments and Saturday hours. Not bad at all. The INS was my idea of hell -- I had to go in two days, because I missed out on actually getting

Oh, those are the worst. And they happen here, too.
The LA DMV actually isn't bad, especially if you go early in the morning or have an appointment.

we have that too. because of the computerized system, you can go online and see what the wait is at each office. how cool is that?
