So much for not contacting her. I had some good news here at work and wanted to share it with her. So, I called her cell.
She sounded quite depressed about her life overall. Still no plan on coming home - yes I asked, but very briefly. It was obvious that she didn't want to talk, so I just let her go and said I would call her later. I did say that I miss her - I think that's ok. Nothing wrong with being honest.
