It's more important than ever to keep connections alive with the people you love. They are ultimately your rock and can serve as a grounding force in your life. As you discover that your upcoming social calendar has a lot of holes in it, resist the urge to fill them up! Leave as many blanks as possible, and call up a friend who's been waiting for a date. While you're at it, get back in touch with a family member who needs an update on how you've been.
