Dear Ariosto,

Because I like you and ONLY because I like you, I will refrain from pointing
out your hypocrisy.

I am always dressed in formal attire and my make up is quite perfect, as
usual. I do not have to do anythng special to accomodate and impress this
guest. 

I cannot see how it could be possible to embarrass you. If anything, you
should feel embarrassed by your hypocrisy. 

This is just Jean Dragon, for goodness sakes. Am I expected to chastise
myself and become dear little Emma merely for the presence of a Frenchman? I
don't think so. Am I to be very polite in the presence of what I consider to
be contemptible just to impress a Frenchman? I will not do that, Ariosto.
There is no reason to do that. 

I am not fond of these comedies of polite manners. I think they are
pointless and empty.

Love,
Shaheena
