Cultured

Saturday night outing with Dad went very well. We were dressed up, went to Cafe de Paris downtown and had a divine dinner with Jim. Swapped stories about various things. Some pretty funny memories about Kathy. The time she got thrown out of Tennessee Williams house for showing up with his boy friend. The time she got a job working for Orson Wells because her friend was his receptionist and forgot to hire a person to do the lighting, in walked Kathy and her friend, oh here she is, it began a long relationship with him and other young, starving artists, dancers and such. She was rich, so whenever they went out, she paid, she always let people sleep on her floor or in her car. Once she was in a movie and got spanked by Clark Gable. If you didn't know Kathy, you wouldn't believe it. She had a charmed life is some ways.
After dinner, we went to the Philharmonic, I got to sit in Kathy's seat. It was hand-picked don't ya know. She had a fine ear for sound. The program had a mixture of ballet and symphony. It was delightful and wonderful. We had a grand time. I was introduced to some fine society folks. Pretty cultural night.
