It has been quite a while since I talked about operation stay in touch or whatever it was I called it. If you missed it I created a spreadsheet (Yeah I'm a nerd) to keep track of my friends and family and remind me to talk to them. Maybe your average person knows how to do that without making a spreadsheet, but I guess I didn't.
Well, it has been almost six months since I started and I have to say it has been awesome. I occasionally to frequently felt lonely before I started it. I had friends, and we hung out, but the sustained level of human interaction using the tool has been amazing.
There aren't many days that I don't talk to someone on my list. Admittedly a good deal of communication is initiated on my end, but that's ok. I haven't had a single person get upset about being contacted.
Overall it has made my life better, fuller and more meaningful. I am almost never lonely anymore.
