Friends Forever
I’ve known Robert Scoble for years – long before blogging was blogging, and long before he was working at Microsoft. I was lucky enough to be present at his nuptuals a few years back, too. He embodies the true geek spirit, and anybody who says otherwise simply does not know Robert like I’ve known him. Maryam is, without argument, his soul mate – and I’m so happy that they’ve found one another. For this reason, I’m equally as thrilled to have Maryam as Ponzi’s matron of honor.
The two of ‘em invited us down to stay with them at their Half Moon Bay home. Before I commit a social faux pas, I just had to say “thank you” in a public fashion. Ponzi and I had a great time. The combination bachelor / bachelorette party couldn’t have been any better. I saw a fantastic Pacific sunset, I got to hang with old friends, I got to meet industry visionaries, I got to attend a fantastic drag show at Asia SF, and I got to drink a $14 mimosa at the Ritz.
I don’t have a wedding page (or site) set up yet – I think I’m just looking for the right Web template to use for it. I must document these experiences now while they’re still fresh in my mind. We’re less than a month away from getting married. Ponzi and myself, that is – not Robert and me! Anybody know of any good WordPress wedding-styled templates (or someone who could put one together for us)?

Chris:
I was just about to poke you guys in the ribs about the high school “friends 4 ever” blog swaps, and then my wife kissed the back of my head before heading out to the grocery store.

She reminds me not to belittle the importance of friendships and partners. It’s hard to be happy and whole without those pieces of the foundation intact.
Reading your blog post drops me back to my days before my wedding. I introduced one my best friends to his future wife in the build-up to our ceremonies. Now the company we created allows us to be friends and business partners. One of the first things we agreed upon, however, was that the friendship always trumped the business side of things.
Thanks for sharing.
