Gremlin:

Aw nuts.  They’d better give me something to do soon or I’ll go completely nuts.  I’ve either got to get to work or get to you.  I can’t do without both.

Hey!  All last summer I was embarrassed by not having a bathing suit.  So please buy me one, size 32, trunks only, and mail it out.  It should be here about the time it gets warm enough to use it.  I like one with lots of built in supporter wool and a “flashy” color like Navy blue.  I hate to have to borrow things. That can be my birthday present.  Sorry you can’t be here to present it in person.

You’re fuzzy is definitely longer—keep it up.  I’m not much of an artist, but how about some snaps of it rolled in two rolls as at night?    It is definitely beautiful up, but I’m not satisfied with the style.  I’d give a cool $500 right now to be able to touch any part of you, your face, your hair.  How about a couple of lips on your next Air Mail effort?  It’s legal now.

All my love, Kitten.  Cy.
