Somervillians, I am sad to report that I won't be able to join you on Tuesday evening after all; I don't really have the time or the money for two Nilly visits, and I'm choosing New York because it's a lot easier for me to manage.
While I am sorry you had to cut out one of your trips, I am selfishly glad it wasn't NYC.
And I'm always amused by the interplay of Jon B. and Kate P. Steph L. needs to get in on this action. Ooh, and Katie M. and brenda m. And Susan W.! And Anne W.! And JenP!
I am far too easily amused.
I thought you were leaving before I got there (Friday night).
Oh, darn. Yeah, I'm probably leaving Friday.
Deb, I am leaving the house on public transit now. I should arrive at your place around 2pm.
Oh! Today is the Nilly-Q!
I'll have you know I can't get enough of that word, cause it reminds me of the distilled, deionized water we use in the lab, which is Milli-Q.

Huzzah for the Nilly Tour pics! I love the logo. I love that there
is
a logo.
Everyone looks to be having such a good time. It makes me smile to see it.
And the sheer mass of foaminess at the Cheesecake Factory must have threatened to create an Event Horizon. Wow.
JZ, your photos are fantastic! Thank you so much.
What was Nilly's version of too much candy? I couldn't make out what kind of container she was holding out. Seeing Emmett and Nilly in the same picture, is the photographic equivalent of the Buffistas greatest hits.
The pictures are great, JZ, thanks for linking. Everyone's having fun at the Nilly-Q right now. Excellent.
