Damn but I feel for you pinksoil. We are so similar. I'd have a hell of a time calling too, but I think you probably should. Sometimes it's easier when you just get an answering machine (at least it is for me because my tone's not always readable). But there, that's my approach/avoidance method of connecting -- I'll leave a totally casual message when I'm really
freaking out. But sometimes it's helpful.
Don't listen to me. I just tell people how to avoid.
Buying a house sounds hugely stressful!!! Tell the T how stressed you are and ask to come in again. (See, I'm telling you what excuses to use to make it sound more casual -- this is what I do.)
I'm not helpful, but I think you should call him.
