So, I'm here to report that Nilly isn't all that wee. I mean compared to Hil or Allyson, she's just not. Her feet are wee, however.

It was very fun hanging at Deb's house last night. Very loose and casual. Nilly gave us our wedding present. My favorite thing was when Nilly described her dinner with Tim and Allyson and Kristen (and Polgara?): "Everybody talked so fast! Tim would say something and Allyson would say something and Tim would say something. I learned that the best way to follow the conversation was to watch Kristen's face because she's so expressive and she knows Allyson so well that she could anticipate where the conversation was going."

What's that? Is someone other than ND actually sharing information on a visit with Nilly?

Pictures, too. I took half a roll last night and will finish the other half today, drop 'em off at a one-hour place ASAP, and have something up in Ofoto by tomorrow morning. Not as fast as ND's insta-documentation, but good enough in a roughshot, homespun sort of old-timey way.

Pictures! Yay!

Conseula, are you coming to dinner on Friday?

Gah. I suck. Sparky, I'm afraid not. I need the exercise, especially if I'm going to Deb's on Saturday, so I'm gonna go to the gym instead. But many thanks for thinking of me.

Deb, if you're around, I'm planning a berry pie, probably blueberry. Do you already have ice cream on hand? If not, I'll pick it up. I just want to avoid a repeat of last year, where Hec and I went out to get ice cream that you already had in your freezer.

I'm very much looking forward to meeting/seeing everyone tomorrow!

Hey! I posted about Nilly--only I think it was in Natter.

This is horribly delayed, since I was on the road all day yesterday, but here are the highlights from Wednesday with Nilly:

We went to the Grauman's Chinese theatre. Nilly has the same size hands as Rita Hayworth.

We had some time to kill before lunch with Robin and Kat so we went into a costume rental place right across the street from where we were having lunch. Nilly had a great time looking around before lunch, and afterwards she and Kat and I went back so she could try on a big fancy dress, I think maybe Victorian or Edwardian, though I am bad with that stuff. She had a blast, and it was fun to watch.

Lunch with Robin and Kat and Nilly. Need I say more?

Krav with ita and Polgara. ita was wonderful with Nilly, and the class as a whole, and did not in any way hurt Nilly. It's funny how seeing someone do something they love is so different from hearing them talk about it, and I am glad I got a chance to with ita and krav.

Nilly (and I) also finished off all of the Wonderfalls eps before we left LA. She loves the show, so it was fun to watch them with her.

Is she gonna write a bunch of reviews?

(emerging from a partial coma)

Sorry I didn't know I was supposed to pick people up on Thursday and Friday (wait, today is Friday)

Anyway, I will be at Deb and Nic's tonight, Friday, I will also be at the BBQ on Saturday. With my camera.
