a feeble attempt to remain somewhat culturally relevant

It is odd that an attempt to remain culturally relevant (creating and posting a blog), removes me one step away from relationships with people. In a society where people are screaming out for relationships it is incredibly odd that one of the means by which to do this is to isolate oneself behind a keyboard for a time and post musings and read other people's insights etc. However ironic that may be I am now jumping in with one foot.
