Wednesday March 9 1938
Am I so unattractive? Does familiarity breed contempt? Have I misjudged Walt so terribly?
“Do you want me to take you to the door or can you make it yourself” What a lovely way to finish off an evening. Especially one spent in the company of 5 others intimately and 150 others suburbanly.
Walt came down with P. Bauchman & others. I went to AJB dinner at the Deshler with them. Had good food with plenty of silver. Even with F.H.G. you need 20% for modernizing – $500 is what we’d need for corner house at $1200 for house & $1100 for repair. My spirit could survive that but not the rebuff of that goodnight. Can I be happy with so thoughtless a person?
