Dear Mother,
Now don't go & get spoiled because I'm writing you again so soon, but could you please find me a bra, a nylon, lace-cup Maiden form Prelude, 34B. Today I hit every store in Palo Alto, & they either don't stock them or they're out. I only want one, & only that particular kind no experimental models, please. Also, while we're on requests, could you please pick me up some more B12, & some Codene Empirin #3's. I'm out. No hurry, of course, just you know how it is with us hop-heads mum - !!!
Today I got a letter from the landlady, asking us to be nice to a girl who she has engaged to sell the house for her. Paula & I are really going to stall on that lease, now. The old girl is asking $17 thousand for the old fire-trop. Can you imagine?!
I wore the white sweater to Rudy's the other night. Now, Rudy's isn't a pool hall, but as far as that expression that you use all the time goes ---- it was "favorably received." That really is a goodie. You did a beautiful job. It's nizzzze!!
Today I ran into Gary in Palo Alto, & there we ran into his friend, John, whose apartment I lived in while he was in Sun Valley last Spring vacation. I had them up for a drink before dinner, thus

The next time you come, could you please nustle me a bottle of that GOOD stuff the old man stocks, thus doing you & I both a favor. High quality blended bourbon is good, rather best for the head & stomache, even when administered in small, infrequent amounts. Good for the circulation, too, you know.
Tonite I cooked dinner for Jim. He's very good about my cooking. He just scrapes things off & asks for an asprin. But really, it's not that bad. I eat my cooking, & so does Paula, & we're still alive! She is a bit slender.
Kevin hasn't been up for quite a while. The last time I missed him, but Paula was there. I'd like to see more of him.
If you see Mary Diane, tell her that I will be writing her son, & that's a promise. Also Pat & all the other letters I haven't written.
Let me know about Big Game & Thanksgiving.
Love, Marcia
