The Two Nuns

I didn't sleep much, I think it was about 10 o'clock when I woke up. I felt pretty hungry as soon as I smoked a cigarette. The last thing I had eaten was those two hamburgers with Brossard and Ackely when we went into Agerstown to the movies. It seemed like about 50 years ago. I started to call for some breakfast but I was sorta scared they would send it up with old Maurice. I thought of giving old Jane a buzz, but I wasn't in the mood.
Instead I rung Sally Hayes, and aranged to meet her at two o'clock. I checked out of the hotel and took a taxi to grand central station. I checked my back in one of those luggage holders.
I was having a big breakfast at the railway station, and there were two nuns on the next table. I had a conversation and I gave them a ten dollar donation. I discussed Romeo and Juliet with them, I didn't actually expect them to have seen it. I enjoyed talking to the nuns. I wish I had given them a bigger donation, all money does is make you miserable.
