------------------------------------------Paris, 27 Fevrier 86
Dear Michael,
Sorry I didn’t answer before, I mean I’m really sorry I’m just such a lazy writer and I’ve been really busy with my friend coming over. He is still here in fact but he will be leaving on Sunday. I thought so much about you when I took him to all those places where we’ve been together. What can I say? I miss you, I wonder why?
Thank you for the information on Elisabeth’s telephone number. That really helped. I got lots of my clothes back. You’re just the best detective there is, for me at least. Too bad it didn’t help you to find your way in Paris, though, huh? Talking about your snapshots, I just got two, the last one you sent me and another one where you’re leaning on a tree. In fact I wrote you a card two months ago about that picture (kind of). I just never sent it. I’m going to in this letter, maybe I was just kind of mad at the time, may be just because you were not writing me that much, but again isn’t that the way it’s always been between us (I mean to get mad at each other for a few months and then to love to see each other again).
Well nothing is really new for me except what I told you on the phone. I’ve been on vacation for about two months now, that just feels really good. For the CLUB MED I went thru an interview about two weeks ago and so far it’s been working pretty well. I have to go thru another one on March 7th at 9:30AM. I hope it’s going to be the last one. I’m dying to know where I’ll be sent. I should be leaving on May 15th. I think we won’t have enough time to connect in May but maybe we could do it in August. That would be great.
Besides that, like I told you on the phone, I got an apartment. I’m really glad about that. My new address is = 36, Rue Lehot…but don’t write me there. Keep writing at my mom’s. I want to be able to get my mail once I’m gone.
I just got a letter from Monica. I was glad to hear from her. She moved to Hawaii. She is inviting me to go visit her. Too bad I can’t. That’s ok. I’m sure I’ll catch up with CLUB MED! I really think it would be fun if you came. Do you know that people working for CLUB MED do the entertainment? That means I’ll sing and dance for you, baby. Isn’t that going to be great? Some show they’re going to have at CLUB MED!
Well as usual I want to send this letter really fast but I’ll write again soon. I’ll tell you about my friend (my American friend who came to visit me, he lives in San Rafael). I can’t right now. He is just behind me! Let’s just say he is the kind who’d try to read my letter while I’m writing it!
Well, Michael, I really hope to read you soon!
Love You-

My new phone number: 47 90 3532.
After work today the group met at SPENGER’s in Berkeley. I thought of Doug Rasic while I was there since he lives in Berkeley.
Judy and I went to SPENGER’s first. It was fun. We had a few drinks. Judy shared her ‘latest goings-on’. The key to our conversation was how a lot of relationships seem to end as “unfinished business”.
I paid a lot of attention to Judy over dinner. I also gave her a good ‘quick kiss’ in front of the work group. Margaret Lai was jealous (I think). There is no reason she should be and besides that, neither Margaret or Judy are my types.
After dinner at SPENGER’s I drove straight home. During the drive home I laughed to myself at the thought of Dale Orlando bringing up x-rated ‘glory holes’ over dinner. Ugh.
To relax and let life flow opens one to another possibility.
