Rice is nice. one can cook a big pot of it & eat it for days & days & days & days

The bath mat said hurray, that f. woman isn't here so now I can lie on this nice moist surface & grow all the mold I want.

The Daily Mirror has asked me to submit a painting for a benefit show for the Cardiac Foundation fund. There'll be some professionals & some amateur painters like Jose Ferrer, Groucho Marx, gypsy Rose Lee, Douglas Fairbanks Jr, Rodgers & Hammerstein, Xavier Cugat, Elsa Maxwell. The show will be extensively publicized in the paper, radio & TV, & I presume there'll be an opening with all these fancy people there. So maybe I'll submit some old picture.

I think I'll go downstairs now & play a game of scrabble & then mail this letter & buy a paper. I should take out the garbage also but I am NOT in the mood for that sort of uncreative activity - maybe I'll leave it all in the kitchen until it starts crawling.

Take care of yourself - don't talk to strangers, give my love to all the family, a straw-hat kiss to Etta* and lots of love too to Renée. and buy yourself
