I'm probably going to ask people unnecessary questions, then count my peanuts throughout the night.

Ah, peanuts. They are always dividing and multiplying. Can't wait to count mine.

I believe this sort of thing was originated by Speed Seduction (http://www.speedseduction.net/) which is is based on NLP (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuro-linguistic_programming).

edit: no it wasn't: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seduction_community

Went to a Greek-food dinner party with karaoke, now I'm working on my current project, a hosted website load testing solution. The site prototype (but not the app) is up, at: http://www.testomatix.com. Edit: also rocking out with Pandora while I work. I really like pandora.

Just saw a movie. Awesome intravert sport, movie watching. Except for the whole leaving the house thing...

Seeing Cloverfield makes me glad I just moved from NYC.

Watched "The Terminal" on television, along with what seemed like a good hour of mostly-prescription-drug commercials. Sorted through some digital photos. Cleaning some no-longer-interesting files off of my iPod.

Saturday night tends to be a night off, which I think is a good thing.

Thinking about the current development-related issues with my startup - handling the exponential relationships between members of a social network.

I'll probably just flake out and store each relationship in a join table ;)

Ate some haggis for Burns Night, read some poetry, drank some beers, then some Glenfiddich fine single malt, then continued to work on prototyping a business application I'm working on.

I'm leveraging the Clojure Lisp, and along with NetBeans 6.0 for GUI design, and TextMate for editing code, it's definitely the most productive language I've ever worked in.

The neatest thing is that that same code runs unchanged on OS X and Windows XP, since Clojure runs on the JVM. (v 1.5 for those of us with Leopard, that is.)

If I may make a suggestion, chasing a woman has much higher ROI than chasing women.

And, of course, you can ask her in bed if "the big switch from Edison" is worth reading.

You will get the best ROI by managing your portfolio correctly. By all means make a close on the deals that are ready for it. But equally important - make sure your pipeline is full and has a steady inflow of potential deals.

I disagree. Like, this is a good strat for times when the outcome is based on how hard you try; but, in my experience, and more relevantly, from what I've read about evolutionary biology, there is such a thing as trying too hard. Plus, if you are really going for one girl, you might get messed up emotionally.

if you focus on one girl that's very risky, if you learn how to have a high percentage chance with most women, that is a low-risk investment

I got back from my first band practice in six years, did XHTML/CSS till I was falling asleep at my desk, and hit the sack at 10pm - which is earlier than normal. Ended-up waking around 5 a.m., so made a venti size latte and caught up with the ever-faithful RSS overload.
