(Note to ogged: it looks like getting a girl on board was the right thing to do. She hasn't even posted yet, and clearly Bob is already threatened. Talk about motivating your co-bloggers!)
The other interpretation is that Bob's girlfriend is out of town for the weekend, leaving Bob bored, lonely, and depressed. (But still not motivated to do actual work.)
Hilarious. He has "strong character, kindness, intellectual curiosity, family orientation, friendliness, generosity, good looks and enthusiasm for travel, food and music," and to boot:
"I know what fork to use now at the dinner table, and I drink my beer from a glass."
Just days before she had been in a Manhattan taxi, chatting with the driver about relationships. "He said to me, 'If you really want to meet the right person, you've got to identify all the characteristics you want in a man,' " she recalled.
IIRC, she was applying rule #807 for "getting the ring."
Thank you for that.

Thanks for the link, Bob.
I can't wait to get to that announcement later in the week, FL. As I was reading it I actually laughed maniacally to myself.
