August 1
A pleasant, comparatively peaceful, but
nevertheless typically Hirsch Sunday.
I relaxed around the house all morning;
unearthing a superly interesting novel about
the Russian side of the first World War
“Testament.” It’s terrifically good and I
hate to put it down. Inbetween times
I wrote letters to Molly, both Bills
and Eddie. I like writing to the
Bills especially since I sort of feel as
though I’m talking to them. I became
tender and meant to put a drop or
two of perfume on each only I spilt
the bottle till it smells to high heaven.
I’ll probably be dispossessed by them.
All evening was spent in trying
to decide where we’ll meet each
other this week and when. Such
confusion always!
War news is much about the
same – looks better but not too much so.
