Yale Station: Letters of Love
September 22, 1947 My small one, Things started today -- and they were not long in putting me to work -- lab right off the bat. Put in applicatdon for the bursary job and should know by to- morrow at this time. I can see this is going to be a busy term -- I'm going to have to study some more math on the side to go with some of my courses. Talked to Red about the job (Mr. Gresens asked me to let him know if anyone I knew was interested in this kind of work) and he seems very favorably impressed -- so he might be working with me in the late spring. It was good to get to work after a week's idleness and especially after lying around here this week-end without anything to do but a little straightening up. (Although it rained very hard most of the day -- bad sign?) About the money orders -- they won't be due until next week anyway -- so, since I'll see you Friday night, I'1l wait until then to give you a list of them. Hope you're feeling well, these days, small one, without a big, awkward husband to pester you -- and drive you out of your wits. (Actually, this is the first time, in a long time, that I have ever felt away from home.) Tell the Stessmans hello -- and your folks. I Love you (you-all) your, George.
