Hello, dear -
This is fun having it be Tuesday already - I am in favor of more holidays like yesterday - especially when they come on a weekend - come to think of it, we did do quite a few things and saw quite a few places besides having a good time - and it did go by pretty fast didn't it ---
Had an uneventful trip last night - I drove to Albany and Glenn took it the rest of the way - stopped for a hamburger in Salem - reached Portland about 9:30 - and it was really cold up here - in fact it is getting colder all the time - I had some anti-freeze put in today and it wouldn't be a bad idea for you to do it too unless you would rather drain the radiator every night -
Enclosed you have found a receipt and a flag - guess I took care of that matter in a hurry, didn't I - and now I have another penny for us too -
Already I am waiting for next weekend to hurry up and come around - gosh darn it - I wish you were up here all the time - guess I am too much in love with you, but I think it is wonderful -
Dick Hill got back today and he succeeded in getting the job so he was quite happy - it's really quite an achievement - as only one out of 30 applicants are selected -
How are you coming along with the dance - Have you sold any tickets yet to Frances, etc. -
Have really been busy at the office today and no fooling - and what's more I am going back tonight - Mr. Couch is going down to Salem tomorrow morning for a couple of meetings and I have to get a bunch of stuff ready for him -
Finally talked Mr. Couch into letting me watch an operation this week - had lunch today at the TB hospital and all the doctors talked about was operations - so I said I had never seen one yet and would like to - so now I am - will tell you about it later -
Well, dear, guess I better whip back up to the Medical Center - hope I get a nice long letter from you tomorrow -
Love,
Bill
Bill my darling -
Here I am at the Side - but not for long - I've sure had a time today - missed you like the devil - felt like quitting my job any minute - In fact I still feel like it and wouldn't feel a bit guilty - it's a good thing I asked and got my raise when I did or I'd only be making about $60 a month - So - if you've got any bright ideas - The dance is coming along fine - I hope - only I sure wish I weren't on the decorations end -
Did you get to Portland O.K.?-
I still wish you were here all the time - You should see the bruise on my ankle where I hit it bowling - Big as a house - There certainly isn't very much happening these days - This pin ball machine is certainly popular - About 20 fellows hanging around it - And I don't know one of them tsk-tsk -
My mind's a blank - It has been all day - Read Esquire last night - figured I must have sinus trouble - cause one article listed my symptons to a "T" - guess maybe I'll get over it tho -
Well dear - I have company -so - as long as I tweren't sayin' nothin' guess I'll quit -
With all my love and sincerely yours etc
Dorothy Decima Barclay -
P.S. Love & kisses
Dotty
