Sneddie darling,

Its so quiet here that I
have to make a noise scratching my pen over
paper to keep from hearing imaginary noises,
I didn't know I could miss a husband so
much, having had one such a short time, but
I do miss you, you sweet hubby and want
you back again soon, two weeks is beginning to
seem like ages and the only thing I have to
look forward to on coming home, is your voice
over the phone. At least that is something.

You poor dear, having to stay out all
night. I feel sorry for you. Did the naughty
bed bugs bite you? You can't blame them for
wanting to. I'm jealous of them I'd like to
bite you to, all over hard, make teeth marks,
red ones, all over you, so you had better not
come home if you don't want to be chewed
up.

Don't call me up tomorrow night, Wed-
nesday, as I'm going over to Pepper's for
