Hello, sweet -
Just Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday to go - and am I impatient - Do you know this is the longest period of time that I have not seen you since - hope it doesn't happen again before next May - which by the way is less than 6 months away now - isn't it great -
Election returns are really coming in fast now - looks like Roosevelt is a cinch - I kinda wanted Wilkie - mostly because Mr. Couch and all the doctors did too -
What do you mean by telling me you are always so unambitious - you're never that way when I see you - or could be that's it - we'll see this weekend - say, what's this about the dance being formal or semi-formal - not that it matters, as I suppose my dark suit is okay- and you will be lovely no matter what you wear - can hardly wait again to tell you again just how lovely and sweet - and how much I do love you -
Will be very happy to get you some yarn for your mittens, (also for mine if you want me to), so let me know -
Wonder if you could do me a favor, dear - when Karl was up here, he mentioned that Bea Evans didn't have a date to the Homecoming Dance - and Bob Moser, who is coming down with me, doesn't have one either - so I wondered if you could call Karl and ask him if Bea would want to go out with him - providing she doesn't have a date yet - tell him I will get in touch with him after the game or something -
Guess what - I really have been working quite hard so far this week - I also have a bunch of reading to do - Mr. Couch and I are going to spend one night a month from now on discussing subjects having to do with our reading and hospital administration - which should be lots of fun and also very helpful to me - sounds encouraging, too, as he is too busy to waste his time doing that if he didn't think I was going to be around for a while -
From what I can gather concerning my draft number it will be at least a year and maybe two before they invite me to spend a year with the army - by then, maybe I will be in a deferred class - I hope -
Have saved up 11 pennies for you so far - will bring them down -
Al my love,
Bill
Hello Puddin -
Decorations, decorations, and I am going crazy - But now I have a committee to help me so things should work out a little bit better - Yep - I'm in the Side now but no one is around - The music is playing and there is the regular atmosphere - Haven't studied a wink but my conscious doesn't hurt a bit - I will have your 75¢ for you this weekend - Are you glad - I'm anxious to see you and your new suit - (My pen isn't running dry - but it's sure working funny) - Dick just came by and said he guessed who I was writing to - guess he guessed right - He says "hello" - I certainly am not doing a good job of concentrating -
Now we have a cow outside our office window - Bob and I fed it some apples today - But it is rather disconcerting to look up and see this silly old cow licking his chops -
This old place isn't the same without you - Time and time again I wish you were here - I don't know for sure yet whether we have Monday off - but I informed them today I wouldn't work in the afternoon anyway. I also said that I would take my Saturday morning off on the 30th - It would be fun to go "shopping" with you in Portland -
Thank gosh - after tonight no more bla bla bla of political speeches - Maybe can, oh no - we'll be dancing then - or just when is the "Hit Parade"?-
And so, dear, I am running out of thoughts - but I do keep thinking of you -
love & kisses
Dotty
