I was kinda thinking that this last week of the year I would probably hear about someone else getting pregnant, to make it an even 20.  Turns out to go even further than that: I had dinner with a high school friend and his wife tonight, and their three kids&#8212;one of whom was born a month ago, though I hadn't even known he was on the way.  So, 20 kidlets either born or in progress in 2004 among my friends and friendly acquaintances.  That seems like a lot to me.<\/p>\n<p>I'm not sure that paragraph made any sense at all. Today was a very social day: I showed my brother around the office this morning, then drove to Half Moon Bay to see Nao &amp; Stephen &amp; baby Theo (who I would've liked to have held, but I'm on the verge of a cold so it seemed like a bad idea) and a whole passel of Stephen's relatives (or whatever the right collective noun is for relatives), then to Redwood City for dinner with Arthur &amp; Pam &amp; Ray and aforementioned Elyon &amp; Julie &amp; their kids (ages roughly 7.5, 4.1, and 0.1).<\/p>\n<p>Then came home and ended up chatting with Rob S on the phone for a couple hours.<\/p>\n<p>All good (I like and enjoy the company of everyone I interacted with today), but exhausting.
