Dear T,
Made it to the beach (drive was easy, though I left later than I'd wanted to--as H put it, semi-affectionately--"It is you."). Things were going well at the pool with my parents and D--until it suddenly very much wasn't. To the point that I thought H and D might be heading home tomorrow. And I wished I could talk to you in that moment. But I managed.

Decided to try dinner out with H and D anyway, and despite a few shaky spots, it ultimately went OK. So...we'll see? Still sorta wish I was talking to you tomorrow, but Wed. makes the most sense, as the halfway point (and don't really want tomorrow and Thursday). Plus, I know I could always email. Or if things go terribly south tonight/in the morning, I could ask if you have something tomorrow. But fingers crossed...(I know, that doesn't work for you!)

Love,
LT
