Meeting the nuns
I didn't sleep much, I woke around ten o clock. I felt like giving old Sally Hayes a buzz, I knew she would be home cause I got this letter off her a few weeks back. So I called her. First of all, her maid ansewered, then her dad got on, then finally I hear Sally's voice. Sally! I said, she didn't know who I was until I told her. Holden! she said, she sounded pretty dam pleased. So I asked her if she was busy today and she said no. So I asked if she fancied going to the matine. Grand she said. Dam I hate that word. So I got a cab up to Grand Central station, I was kinda hungry by then so when I got there I found a little place and had Eggs and bacon. There were some nuns sat a couple of tables away from me, just having Coffe and Toast. It really did kill me when I was sat there with my eggs and bacon and there was someone else with coffe and toast. I asked them if they had a collection I could donate to, they said yes and so I donated ten bucks. I ended up having a nice talk with them. They were the really nice kind of people, we talked about books. Especially Shakespeare. I told them how much I hated Romeo and Juliet and that I think Mercutio shouldn't have died. They were very understanding, but in the end they had to go. I felt so dam stupid, I was smoking a cigarette and when they went to leave, I accidentally blew smoke in their face. I couldn't stop apologising. Dam I couldn't believe it. They were very kind about it and off they went.
