who also spent a week- I noticed that it is a common trait among TV's to feel a bit awkward (like a masque- rader) the first day of dressing in company..and that the real "girl within" begins to emerge only on the following morning in full bloom. After she emerges, the "take- over" becomes more and more pronounced and when we talk of days and weeks "en Femme" we understand why it is so terribly painful (like pulling several teeth with- out anesthesia) when we must "get back in uniform" and put her in the closet again. Personally I was desolate the last day of my vacation. I had already cheated the office by faking illness in order to add an extra week to my three official vacation weeks...and I still felt it wasn't enough..I wonder what my reaction would have been if someone had told me that I could stay as Susanna for as long as I wanted.. Sometimes I think I would have torn up all my male clothes with extreme pleasure.. But here I am now back at the job feeling reasonably conten- ted as I re-adjust myself to the stream of life. The best news of all upon my return was that I am longer required to go back to that horrible World's Fair and I have been assigned to my old job with the old schedule which leaves me beautiful lazy mornings to putter around the house in a mu-mu and mules, wearing one of the new turban-wig combinations which I call "breakfast hair- pieces". just something to slip over your head without much fuss or combing.. it gives you "that" feeling with- out being actually a wig... What for the future? Quite a few more week-ends in the country until the weather gets too cold (probably until Hallowe'en) and then New York!! Thanksgiving parties..one birthday party to cele- brate Joan's and Susanna's getting one year younger..and finally Christman and New Year.. there ought to be plenty of opportunities to socialize in the proper manner and meet friends.. and talk and laugh and gossip..and wish that all of our friends had the opportunities that fate has afforded some of us to live life to the hilt without regrets.

Hope to hear from some of my old friends now that the work pressure is off and I will have a bit more time to dedicate to the beautiful and fascinating world of transvestism.

Love from,
