Meet at the Half Moon Bay Ritz’ fire ring out back at 8 p.m. — bring a jacket. Why? Erica O’Grady is in town and we’ll have some fun. It’s cold here in Half Moon Bay. Why is the weather always stunning during the week when we have to go to work and then gets colder on the weekend? Hmmm.

Oh, but then you would have known that if you were on my social network iin, say, Twitter. Heheh.

A note to myself: stop joining every social network just cause all your cool friends are on it. Remember this day. How many Facebook friends have you added in the past 24 hours? More than 300? How many friends do you have on Twitter? More than 4,000? You only have yourself to blame. Now go buy a BBQ so Maryam is happy for the rest of the weekend. Otherwise no more social networking for you buddy!

When I finally meet Mark Zuckerberg I’m going to poke him in the ribs for making me click three times just to add a friend. Hey, Mark, I’m still going to add everyone who friends me as a friend. Just making it more difficult isn’t going to stop me! I bet the next social network is actually going to look at Flickr to see if there’s any photos of us hanging out together. Geesh.

Whoever writes the Fake Steve blog is pretty damn good. Yeah, he’s always whining about something or other I wrote but that makes it funny. I really don’t like fake blogs, either. But at least this one doesn’t pretend to be anything other than fake, so it’s useful just for its sheer entertainment value. Even the real Steve reads it.

Anyway, today he prepared the Apple faithful for the coming media backlash.

Good reading for a Saturday. Maryam has us up early to go buy a BBQ and start on getting some of the baby stuff. Yowza. Oh, and how’s the baby doing? Well the little guy sure was kicking up a storm at 2:30 a.m. The doctors say he’s doing well and on target for our TechCrunch20 launch date (he’s due September 17th, which is the same date as the TechCrunch20 conference).

Sleepless nights ahead! Oh, like that’ll really be a big change. 😉
