Thx again everyone
Could you maybe just start the session by handing your T a piece of paper that says, "Did you get my e-mail last week?" Or something like that? Because again, your may not have gotten your e-mail (that's happened with my T before--their e-mail server sucks). Or she may be waiting for you to be ready to talk about it, as others have said. So if you just say (or write) something like, 'Did you get my e-mail?" that signals that you at least want to talk about it.
