So I've made it to 3 pm. There shall be much rejoicing at the end of this day. Well, not really. Mostly just relief.
I did reply to the e-mail:
Thanks for letting me know what's been going on with you. I'm sorry you've been having a rough week. I too have had a physically, mentally, and emotionally exhausting week.
As for the second half of your e-mail, I'm really
confused and frustrated. I feel like you're trying to ask/tell/confront me about something, but I honestly have no idea what it is. I also feel like you're somehow blaming me for you feeling like you can't talk to me. So I'm not really sure what I'm supposed to say.
I don't mind you sharing things with me via e-mail -- to me it's just as valid a medium as phone or
in-person. I'm just confused by what you're trying to commnicate, so I need more explanation than just one or two cryptic sentences.
So now I'm totally tapped out. I don't even have enough left to sit and fret about what/when she'll reply, in my usual e-mailing manner. I finished my two tasks for my bosses....I don't have the energy to start anything else, esp. on a Friday afternoon. Maybe I'll attempt to track down a particular upublished case -- that's entertaining enough.
Glad I'm staying home tonight. We discussed having an art project night at the apartment -- maybe I'll finally get those pictures framed and hung. I've had an urge to paint lately -- though not in "creating an image on a blank canvas" sort of way. More like painting specific objects. Perhaps I'll invest in a paint-by-numbers kit --but only if it's matted on velvet.

But I think confronting it is the best thing to do; anything else just reinforces it. I think you took the right approach.
this is SO not the right place for this, but.
