“Button,” Espiritu Santo

Went to bed last night meaning to go to Mass this morning and then forgot all about it. My estate in the Kingdom of Heaven must be depreciating in value very rapidly nowadays — shall most likely not be able to get anything but a short-term visitors visa.

Managed to get a hold of an extra large mattress for my bunk the other day and now only leave my “sack” for food. Am reading everything at hand.
