Get it together!

Okay, I've finally gotten some sleep.
Exhausted, I dragged myself into my bed last night and listened to my recording of her singing until I finally fell asleep.  When I woke up, I was filled with new resolve.

I will not collapse.  I will not crumble.  I will stand and fight for what I believe in, and I will make that clear.
That's why I'm drafting an e-mail to her father to both declare my intention and to try and reach out to the man.  That e-mail might take a long time to get right, as I want to be as honest as I possibly can.  Not just honest to him, but to myself as well.

It does bother me a bit that in all my research the only e-mail address I could find was a work-related one.  This is clearly a personal matter, and should not involve spending his employer's resources, but I have to work with what I have.  I guess I'll keep searching for a private address while I compose the e-mail, but I must send it, and if that means a breach of etiquette, then so be it.

It is my hope that Mr. B and I can agree on some solution for a kinder tomorrow.
