Dear T,
Sorry about the horribly awkward birthday wish! It just felt right telling you, though maybe I should have just let it go? Eh, nothing I can do about it now. I realize I should have clarified where I read it back then and was going to email you, then figured I'd let it go and could tell you Monday. You did say a "take care" when I was leaving, and it felt OK between us, a little joking around, so it's most likely completely fine.

Thanks for being understanding and accepting about what I said regarding potentially going back to virtual at some point. It really felt like you were listening and empathizing. It's good to know that you might be willing to make an occasional exception for in-person, even if you do go back to virtual. I do find it odd that it hadn't occurred to you to ask clients to test first if they want to come in--I mean, that's the policy at some places (well, more for the unvaccinated, but still).

I do hope you have a good rest of your birthday.

Love,
LT
