So you like Lilliana. No foolin’, you should see her modeling a formal! The funny part is she doesn’t know she’s good-looking yet.
Burrington arrived, as did wings and ribbons.
I must have missed the letter where you mentioned saving out $500 for income tax. Good deal. As I understand it we now have the checking, two savings accounts of $1000 each, and $500 for income tax! Is that right?
I’m a little griped at Tom. Of course, we don’t have a hell of a lot in common any more, and his elevated position in Army engineering may make formal engineering education look a little sour.
Nuts—I keep getting interrupted by long distance calls from all over the country—and this is the lunch hour (so-called).
IRE* notifies me my application for membership will be taken up at October Board Meeting. I think that it will be worthwhile some day.
I love you, kitten. Your own, Cy
*I believe this is “Institute of Radio Engineers”
