Hi darling,
Its [sic] your worst half again and beleive [sic] it or not he feels pretty good for a change. I think its [sic] all those nice letters that he gets from his little wife. Gee darling I do love you so very much and I want you so very very much and I want you so very very much and darling I hope you find a place for us. Don’t go and think we couldn’t stay at any folks house because its [sic] not so. I know my mother wouldn’t mind having us but it’s just that she thinks the way I do that we should have a place of our own.

I, myself want you all to myself and nobody else. Gee honey I just can’t wait until I get out of this place. Well darling I had a little excitment [sic] to-day [sic]. I was driving Calif. Ave. and then I hear a jeep in back of me and then he’s in front of me and the next thing I knew I was stoped [sic] for speeding but I talked myself out of it. I missed a Bob hope show that was here to-day [sic] because I had to work. But to night [sic] I went and saw a cowboy picture boy darling I’m telling you I’m getting hard up to go see something like that but its [sic] just to kill time. I’ll have to go to bed now because the

Howard
