Could It Be A Spring Fling?

Most of humanity, when trapped in an uneasy silence, would say something, anything, in order to free themselves from the discomfort of quiet.--TAYLOR STEVENS from her novel, THE INFORMATIONIST
I was so busy with work there was no time to feel lonely.  When I was free from work I’d spend most of my time with Alan.  I did have some lonesome, quiet moments during my lunch hour and I would often take my letters to read them (and even perhaps answer one or two).  In my silence I like to write or read words.   I also liked to walk over to UCLA and hang out inside THE COFFEE BEAN café.   I wrote mom a postcard of MONO LAKE this week:
June 3, 1992Dear Mom,I had to write you to THANK YOU for the wonderful Birthday Card you sent me!  It really made me feel good.  I Love You!Here is my summer itinerary:6/13—6/20:  Mom and Ashley come to visit L.A.6/27:  Marina Del Rey BIKE-A-THON7/3—7/5:  New York City visit with Alan7/31—8/2:  Oakland-Alameda visit 8/7—8/9:  Lake Tahoe visit9/3—9/7:  New York City visitAnd…I will probably come to Alameda again in August or September.  When I talk to you over the phone I often forget to tell you some things.  The most important thing is that I miss you, I love you and I can’t wait until June 13th when you and Ashley arrive.Love, Michael
What a cool COULD IT BE A SPRING FLING? Card that Barbara Reynolds sent me!6, June 92, 2127 Roosevelt Ave, Berkeley, CA 94703

Dear Mike,I just got home from a walk from Emery Bay and I saw BASIC INSTINCT with Alice.  I picked up this (COULD IT BE A SPRING FLING?) postcard on the way.   
It sounds like you are BUSY.  I, too, loved CAMBRIA. New York…great trips!  I fly to Nashville on June 17th and return June 22nd to visit my friends in Bowling Green, Kentucky (fun old price wars).
Isn’t Ashley your eldest niece?   It’s so nice for her and your mom to have a week with you.  I’m looking forward to seeing horses (and my friends, of course).  It is still Spring, right?   I am playing this week.Have Fun!  Love, Barbara
I decided to write to Paloma this week.  I haven’t kept her too updated lately.  I also she likes to know about the American movies I see, so I had much to share.   She had also written to me and I hadn’t had the time to reply to her many questions: June 7, 1992Dear Plaoma,I saw a good movie on Friday night called PATRIOT GAMES starring Harrison Ford.  It’s really good.  I’m enclosing a Preview Movie Guide that I found at the show.  The last page shows a movie starring French actor, Gerard Depardieu.   They showed a preview of it last night.  It starts on October 9th and it is about Christopher Columbus.  The preview looked very good!

I’m wearing the DEVANT TES BIEN T-Shirt you sent me right now.
I also saw a new film starring Whoopi Goldberg called SISTER ACT which was pretty funny.   The next big box-office hit will likely be on June 19th when BATMAN RETURNS opens.  Michelle Pfeiffer plays the CATWOMAN.  Danny DeVito plays the PENGUIN and Pee Wee Herman has a small part as the PENGUIN’s father!
I recently heard a lot in the news about some French guy who did really well at the French Tennis Open.   Did you hear about it?
I didn’t know Louis Malle was married to Susan Sarandon.  I never saw that movie with Brooke Shields when she was only thirteen years old.  Here, they called the movie PRETTY BABY (1978).  The disco club in BASIC INSTINCT is called “DV-8” in real life; however, like I mentioned in my other letter it’s not as wild as it appears in the movie.
I have never heard of MODELS, THE MOVIE here, yet.  Those models do look familiar, of course.  Cindy Crawford is the most popular.
I really do enjoy my new job.  It’s interesting to purchase stocks for people and take people’s money.  Ha-ha.  I learn new things each day.  I had a brochure mailed to you with a note.  Look it over.  You may want to open an International Account.  It would be good to set it up for Jonathan’s future.Oh yes…BIRD ON A WIRE was pretty good.  Did you like it?  Until the next time…Love You, Michael
