2632 Woodley Place Friday 11:05 p.m. Hello, Sweeties- Just got in from dinner at Jack and Simone's to find fifteen pages of letters awaiting me! One was postmarked 6:30 pm Wednesday and the other the same time last night. Don't know how the latter got here so fast but I was grateful for every line. This is really a letter for Monday morning and I won't stop to tell about tonight because you'll want to hear about the W.s on Sunday-it was lots of fun seeing them, Simone gave me a present for you and Jack and I had a long and pleasantly desultory conversation on linguistics. Interest here (as we come across it) in the invasion grows apace, or seems to - you remember my saying that I was surprised at what a casual reception it received at first. Noticing your mention of the excitement of being here in each letter, I hope you will not too disappointed when you received my first mention of the subject this week. Our trouble is that I don’t hear any radio reports - this is a time when I really miss them and perhaps I'll do a little catching up Saturday night or early Sunday morning except for the brief summary communique which continues to be broadcast over the loudspeaker system once or twice a day. I'm dying to get a good look at Wendy on Sunday! Sunday 11:45 Welcome home, my darlings! It was such a special day today and I feel good all over from seeing so much of you and seeing you so well nourished 'n everything - now, as you receive this (which I hope is on your way in) I'm sure you’re happy to be home at last, [?] and [?] of your own domain. On the train coming home I read Time cover-to-cover and just browsed a little in “Chiu [P’?g] Mei” (you can guess where) - then I topped it off just now with tomorrow's paper at a hamburger joint near here where I stopped in because I was hungry despite a full dinner on the train at 5:30. Hugh and Toni just came by and whistled up at me - they are going to dinner in town with the Williamses Wednesday night and have asked me to join them, as I probably will. I'll ask Lucille, I think. Tomorrow night I'm to call on the Berrys. Didn't look at the list at all on the way home - probably will do so Tuesday night. This coming week can't go by too quickly for me - next weekend will be the climax of all my little visits with you. To bed now, loving you as always and then some - Warren
