Dear T,
Sorry for my prolonged good-bye today, as I gradually worked my way out of your office. I wanted to say "I'll miss you. Love you," but of course I couldn't say that. Well, I guess I could have at least said "I'll miss you," but it feels awkward knowing you wouldn't say it back. Like, "I'll miss you." "OK, then, see you next week." So I just said random other stuff instead. It's times like these when something like a handshake (or hug, but I know you never do those) would have helped. I wish we'd had like 15 more minutes or something. As today was the first time I saw you in person in 2.5 weeks, and I won't see you again for a week. And I worry you'll come back sick again from this event like last year, so that would be even more virtual.

So, love you and will miss you,
LT
