Hello Punkin’:-
I’m not the only one singin’ the blues today – there were three letters delivered to the outfit today – might slim pickins’, I’d say – Anyway, I’ll get two tomorrow, so there!!
We’ve been freezin’ our nertz the last couple of days, snow ‘n everything – Maybe we’ll have that White Xmas after all. White or not, I hate to even think of it. I’m in the gotchies for the winter, & am won’dring whose gonna cut them off me along about next June or thereabouts.
Haven’t had time to find that phonograph as yet – in fact, today I had a bowel movement that I should have had three days ago (I think.) [Text inverted]: Gonna have a shave “On you!!”
DePaul volunteers the news that Kate has a camera & film on the way – If it eve gets here maybe you’ll get a glimpse of your boy in Merrie England – I’ve my fingers crossed. O! I almost forgot – Pinkie writes that he’s in Ireland – We’re gonna try to get together in London if possible – Wow!! Tho’ it’s not at all time, it’s the place on paper, so here’s good nite for now & for you – my love. Slug.
That Box of Letters
