Don’t come to America if you are in love, happy, fed and working. You’ll find none of those here as far as I can see… Nails still red; divine lounging pajamas… Hair shorter and tightly curled, beginning to look like you had hoped for—spectacular—-only a lady withal… What is your idea of love? Have you chosen men only? …Write soon—remember sweetness… recall the warm—-life is simply ghastly.
