sleep with the baby. Bimmie says, Whoopee! It worked! I'm scared to tell him now.
Bimmie kept talking about how his experiment is going to revolutionize agriculture.
He gave me ten pages to type. I thought I'd better.
All of them do. They're all puppies. Nothing else, just puppies.
I put them in a box, and took them upstairs.
Bimmie's working tonight. I'll go to bed before he comes home.
I took the baby and went to Momma's.
It was suppertime when I came home. He was on the couch with Sup and Susta and the puppies.
He didn't act mad, just nasty-nice. So you came home, he said. I never realized how limited you were, Listie. Your diary's shown me a lot. Can you at least find homes for the puppies?
I said, I guess. I put the baby down. He hadn't thrown anything or burned my diary.
He said, Good, then. I've fixed supper.
He had hamburger, frozen pie and hot chocolate. Some of it tasted bad. I didn't say anything.
Bimmie has no new project. He has thrown all his energies into cooking. He does quite well, except for hot chocolate, which still tastes of chemicals.
I never, until yesterday, realized the intellectual and sensual joy to be derived from delving into Greek drama.
His glance was speculative. "I have some money saved. Want a tridiversion wall?"
I was horrified. "Whatever for?"
He shrugged. "Maybe you'd like to go to the library. Get something to read."
I considered. "Perhaps I will," I said. "There isn't much for me to do, hang diapers and push buttons. Automation has almost completely eliminated the housewife's traditional chores."
I left Bimford, Jr. with Mother and walked to the library. I asked the librarian to show me about.
"What are you interested in?" she inquired.
"I don't know," I replied. "Do you have any good recent works on chemistry or perhaps nuclear physics?"
She raised her eyebrows but conducted me to the proper shelf. After finding several interesting volumes, I also checked out a volume on cookery for Bimford. His hot chocolate doesn't improve, despite nightly practice.
He tells me he is working on a new project.
