Yesterday was Karin's birthday. She was nineteen. The F.Y.P. baby is growing up (The Brat). I really can't understand myself as much as I try. Can get roaring mad at Karin but it disperses and there I am feeling all kind and swell toward all - Some time when I can take the time off I'm going to sit down and really puzzle me out. Marion, Helena, and Martha Kuelin and I played Tennis tonight on the Willow Brook Tennis Court ----- The dash indicates where Noa came in and asked me to go for a ride with her and Dick so I went, it was fun. Dick had the top down on his car. Well theres much to do and not much time to do it in so I must away.
P.S. Seems I'm forever going riding with girls and their boyfriends

Well it's all over now! I mean my permanent of course! It looks rather nice too even if I do say so myself. I went in the beauty parlor at 5:00 and got out almost 9:30. Hurried home in time to listen to Fibber McGee and had super. The family seems to like my permanent and so do I. Well I washed out my only pair of anklets and got ready for bed. I'm so glad I can wear anklets they save so on my stockings and pocketbook too. I couldnt' just go to bed without doing something extra so I read some more of my book and finally got to bed.

Well I called Kristen's and made an appointment for a permanent tomorrow night. What a relief that will be! I made myself comfortable with a book "Pitcairn's Island" by Nordoff and was all set to spend an interesting evening at home when who should drive up but Karin and Viola Jobert. Karin said I could go for a ride with them if I had some money to chip in for gas! I consented to chip in a few cents so off we went to Hartford and up to see Ray who came out for a ride with us. We came back to N.B. and up to the Broadcasting Station and played records. Met Craig Patterson the announcer who is incidentally Viola's boyfriend. Vi stayed there and Karin brought me home then took Ray home. She certainly is crazy about him and she shows it.

When I woke up my sunburn was almost completely gone. Little Junior came in to see me before I'd gotten out of bed. He's so cute and he toddles all over the place. Calls me "Ningee". There wasn't anything to do so mother and I had coffee and cookies and smoked a few cigarettes together. I read all the Sunday paper and really managed to keep myself entertained. I don't mind being home I like to read and listen to the radio. Heard the usual Sunday programs and then I washed my hair and took a bath. I've got to get my permanent pretty soon my hair is getting so long -

Sky woke me up this morning. Thrill! Thrill! Noa got up and we had breakfast together. I went home and changed my dress and met the rest of the girls in front of the Office. Dot and I sat together and was it fun. Two buses. Ginny in the other one. We reached Elm Camp about 10:30 or so. Dot and I went rowing, I mean canoeing. We played Ping Pong - Had dinner - Turkey and stuff Good. Went up on the hill and learned how to shoot arrows, played volleyball and tennis and rode a bike. The boy who took care of us was ok, Bret - he called everybody honey and other sweet names and well too much is too much! Had hamburgers, coffee, and ice cream before we left. Went home about 6:30 and had fun on way home. Got my arms sunburned but they don't hurt.

Ev and I went up to Noa's tonight and we had such a nice visit. Ginny was getting her permanent but we thought it might be fun to have her up too so I called the beauty parlor and asked her. She came up after her hair was fixed and she looked so nice. Everybody talked to their hearts content and we had food of course and talked more and more. Noa wanted me to stay overnight with her but I said I couldn't because the R & E Girls Club are going on an outing tomorrow morning. However she and the girls convinced me I could get there just as early if I slept there as at home. We left notes for Sky to wake me at 7:30 next morning but he came before we went to bed so we fooled around some. Sky was in better humor than I've seen him for ages.

Well we had meeting tonight I called Karin up to see if she could meet me but she said she was too tired to go to meeting. I went to Noa's and we walked to Ginny's together. On the way Noa asked if I could keep a secret and I said "yes". She said "I'm so tired of Karin! She's always talking about herself and acting so superior!" I told Noa that the rest of the girls were complaining too. When we got to meeting the girls all started talking about Karin and that's the way the whole evening was spent. Not being catty just discussing here. They want something to be done to make Karin realize we aren't just an audience for her!
