I read this and I am tempted to bring up emailing to my T. But then I'm reminding myself why I won't. One of the reasons is that I would never feel o.k. about intruding into her personal time and even bringing up the subject would feel, to me, like I was intruding.
But, you're right, it is personal and I would never begrudge another person with their enhanced access to their T's.
