Then I slicks up a bit at a Turkish bath and at 7:25 I 'm waitin ' with the biggest taxi I can find in front of Bonnie 's hotel . I expect I must have let out a sigh of relief when she shows up and I notice that she 's shed the unsteady velvet lid . It 's some creation she 's swapped it for , a pink satin affair with a wing spread of about three feet , but I must admit it kind of sets off that big face of hers and the grayish hair .
