Dear T,
I know it was probably stupid to email you just now, as you most likely won't reply until tomorrow morning. Delusional me hopes maybe you'd happen to see it and dash something off before then. Maybe in some weird way it helps to know you likely won't reply until tomorrow?

I hope it doesn't seem manipulative that I said I wished I could talk to you before Thursday, but I was just being honest. And I said "I know that's not possible." It's not like I said, "Is there any way we could talk?" because that wouldn't have been fair, as it's not an emergency, and you would have said no (you'd have likely said "no" even if it were an emergency, though you said before that you'd probably try to arrange for me to talk to another T).

Love,
LT
