October 29, 1968

Hi,

Love dem candlestick holders! They're the greatest I've ever seen. One arrived in perfect condition but the other got its petal points bruised. How have my packages been on arrival?

The three blouses fit perfectly. You must be clairvoyant to have known I'm on a "blouse kick" after three years as a strict sweater girl. Is the mantilla a hint that I pray more often?

Although the roses are the most perfect I've seen next to the real thing, I still doubt that I'll be able to paint them. Thank you for everything, Love.



I'm writing this letter in my new AF glasses -- they're so ugly I love them. However, I really don't see too well with them ... but maybe some day my feeble brain will be able to compensate the lens gap.

I should finish clearing base tomorrow (I noticed on the postal tag that you have my temporary forwarding address). I have a buyer for my car -- $550 -- can't kick and should be winging my way eastward Mon or Tues (standby of course!)

I don't know if I told you about my post-S.F. experience but I was really tee'd off! I made it to the Air West terminal with time to spare -- just perfect to zoom in standby -- except for the fact the D.B.s* don't allow standby -- only mil. 2/3s. I took it but I was annoyed. I felt I deserved a reward for my perfect timing (or your perfect timing).

I figure I can come fairly close to being a bum in NYC. No car will help the cause & I plan to leave all but essential apt. goodies at home.

Anything I buy from now on will be either very good or very bad.

I have noticed something peculiar when I walk through furniture depts though. The chairs and sofas become animated and whisper, "Buy me!" So far I haven't listened ... so far ... hmmm.

If you see the TV show Julia (I have no idea what kind of TV shows you see) notice her bed!

Love,
po' girl
