I would definitely go ahead and call, but I understand why you might want to have a reason for the call. I always feel like I need a reason to call my H.....he is very goal oriented, so it helps if I have some kind of question to ask specifically when I do call (which admittedly is not very often).
So I would call and say hello and start out by asking how he's doing, have a conversation and then if there's a lull say "well, I was just calling to ask about XXX". That way he feels as though he's helped you out by giving you the viola-ist (?) information (remember Men from Mars wanting to help and be of service), and you feel good because you gave him a reason to help you out. And overall he feels like 'hey, I had a great conversation with super-cool T. Maybe I'll call her for a muffin recipe/chat/bit of naughtiness(!) some time soon'
And that's my �0.02! (I think that's $0.04 these days!!)
((((T)))) I noticed you're in a super-great mood on the threads these days and really dishing out some love. It's so great to read your posts and see how strong you've gotten over the last few months you know!
L.xx
Walk on, walk on, with hope in your heart. And you'll never walk alone.
