155 Navy #3247 (Mil. Govt) FPO San Francisco Saturday 3 March 5:45 pm My dearest darling, Funny how I get spells of writing long letters and then just scribbling notes - I’d love to write long letters every day - get lots of satisfaction out of it, but they’re not relaxing and I do need to relax sometimes. Even so I mostly just don't have time. Tonight, though I don't specially feel like it, I'm going to one of the CB outfit theaters with Charlie F. to see his actors put on an outside performance, followed probably by a movie. Several weeks ago I said I’d like to go and as I really do want to, I accepted his suggestion when he made it late this afternoon. It's been a busy day, as always - the more so because Tel is off on a two-day trip to a nearby island in connection with getting things for the school. I was scheduled to go with him until the colonel learned that another trip might be necessary before long, and if it is we'll both go. [pg 2] 10 pm Back again, and thoroughly glad I went….Charlie tried to persuade me to take over the job of putting on the show (acting as announcer and MC) because by now he's thoroughly sick of it, but I renigged - haven't time. It would be rather fun if I did, for awhile. Didn't mean to imply a connection between being glad I went and being asked to take it over - that was later, coming back. I mean I enjoyed seeing the show itself, played before a fairly lively and quite appreciative audience of some 2500, and a (by now) streamlined show at that. Some of it was the same that played for us at the two banquets. Occasional speeches in English by various of the players made a big hit - they are really funny. So did “Tokyo no [?] [?] Konnichi wa” etc. to the tune of Mademoiselle from [?]. Charlie is a good master of ceremonies incidentally; his little act is easy, amusing but not overdone. Am getting mail regularly now and it is a good feeling. Dreamt of you last night and boy did I love you! (As I do and shall always) Warren
