Wow this is a tough one. I agree that you shouldn't feel at all bad if you decide to take the phone call. He wouldn't have offered if he wasn't ok about it, and haven't you been working alot on asking for what you need?
I'm pretty miserable on the phone, and i think a phone call with my therapist that wasn't supposed to be like therapy wouldn't be a comfortable call. In all likelihood, I'd be so conscious that she was on vacation and that I shouldn't turn it into a therapy session that I'd probably just mouth a bunch of platitudes and get off as quickly as I could. And if the call was unsatisfactory in some sense, I might feel worse. However, I have a tough time talking to my therapist on the phone about anything, so I'd probably just be ok with the offer.
Good Luck
