Today, before I was up, that young whelp of a Malen came over on his wheel, & tormented me. I kept thinking that so many articles of ladies' wearing apparel might confuse him, because things were strewn about on the couch & my chair. But he sat on as many as he could without batting an eye. Guess he's used to it. It is hard for me to understand -- this absence from embarrassment existing between the male and female members of this "Reynolds and Wolf" family. Of course you can see why it surprises me. Never having had a man around, except one that was "bearing" me, naturally I'd not be familiar with such little personal effects as garters, suspenders and the like. I felt that I'd done a perfectly George
