- In the afternoon Crowley
goes out to the Café Reimann, a gay and lesbian venue. At
6:00 he went to the Romanisches Café where he found
Hanni Jaeger. She told Crowley that she had been sitting
there since 2:00 and had bought him a Christmas present
which the waiter had stolen or lost. They then went to
Seichen's restaurant for dinner. Back at the studio she
tells Crowley that she will give up eating, prostitute
herself to get cash and cigarettes and brandy, then hire a
room with gas and a hot bath to open her veins in. She then
went off in a rage when Crowley refused to show her his
diary but later returned a quarter past midnight. Crowley
advised her that she would have to sleep in a separate room.
