Today’s offering from Dart includes a discussion of stationery, with him suggesting she may someday get a note from him written on a brown paper bag, since she said she wouldn’t mind. I guess nice writing paper is hard to find from his hospital bed.

Most of the letter is a point-by-point response to the one Dot wrote after her recent day in Cleveland. He makes joking remarks about her growing number of cinema crushes, her exotic appetite for breakfast (shrimp cocktail!) and the number of movies she manages to see.  He remarks that it’s just as well she didn’t stop by to meet his parents because they are neck deep in redecorating their apartment.

He signs off abrubtly because he’s being called to receive some kind of special treatments. It’s rare when he fails to fill an entire page of stationery.
