B.Y.O.B. (Bring your own Bob)
Okay, I’ve let enough people voice their uninformed opinions on my personal life. I think it’s time to set some things straight.
As some of you know, Bob has written a post about my relationship with my friend Janet. You can read it here. Some of you already have.
It seems Bob thinks there was a family dinner event type thing this past Saturday night and that I took my friend Janet to that dinner. It wasn’t a family thing. It was a dinner in celebration of my friend Juicette’s birhtday. This past Saturday night, she invited a bunch of her friends out for dinner and drinks. I don’t know Juicette’s friends all that well. Really, the only one I know is Juice and maybe one or two people whom I’ve met through Juice.
Due to the fact that I don’t know many people there, I bring a friend. Bob knows this because the last two years on Juicette’s birthday, I brought him along.
I think Bob is starting to freak out a bit as I’ve got a new friend to take to parties and such where I don’t know anybody.
Or maybe Bob has simply misunderstood some of the finer details as I regailed him about my busy weekend. For you see, the next day, Sunday, I went to my future sister-in-law’s house for another party. That was a family type thing. my future sister-in-law’s mother invited all (or most) of her family over for an afternoon tea party. All the ladies ate finger foods, wore springtime hats and drank tea. While the men went downstairs and watched sports on television. (Masters weekend, Inter versus Fiorentina, Toronto FC versus Becks and the Galaxy and the Stanley Cup playoffs!)
So I had a busy weekend and didn’t spend anytime with Bob.
If you take anything away from this post, let it be this: Bob needs a girlfriend. So, if anybody reading this is female, single, I’d say between 25 and 35 years of age, red-haired and looking for a relationship with a stable, humble guy; Bob is looking for you.

You are a good friend to help Bob out this way–he doesn’t have to pay for one of those personal ads.

Poor Bob…does she have to be redheaded? I don’t know any redheads.
April 18, 2008 at 10:03 am
Awhhh it’s like when millhouse get’s a girlfriend and bart can’t handle it.
April 18, 2008 at 10:03 am
Maybe I got your social functions confused (you just listed them on monday without details) but still you are giving off messages not only to Janet but to others. Why do you think Boston thought what he did?
And thank you everyone for your concern but it is not needed.
April 18, 2008 at 10:07 am
Yeah why a redhead? I have blonde hair
I don’t understand why asking a friend to do things sends weird vibes according to Bob. As I said on his blog, my male friends and I do lots of things together.
April 18, 2008 at 11:03 am
But mom, what about Millhouse?
..Millhouse doesn’t count.
April 18, 2008 at 11:05 am
Angel - Thanks man.
JLee - he likes redheads.
Rawbean - not really. I don’t have a girlfriend and I resent being compared to Milhouse Van Houten.
Bob - I’m working on my list of goals here.
Miss Ash - It’s not like I have many single females friends, but can’t I have just one. Is that too much to ask. And Bob likes redheads. I think he wants to meet a woman just like his mother. I think.
April 18, 2008 at 11:05 am
Dan - exactly!
April 18, 2008 at 11:24 am
I have offered to help you with your list of goals and to make your movies, tv show ideas. You never follow through.
And yes you can have a single female friend, i do (I am friends with Janet) but I don’t invite her to weird stuff like you do and give her mixed messages.
Miss Ash, I like redheads and freckles, I think it is a genetic thing. But I don’t exclusively look for redheads, black hair, brown hair and blondes, a beautiful woman is a beautiful woman.

I think at this point it’s obvious…Bob’s a FAG.
April 18, 2008 at 12:46 pm
If Janet feels so weird then why is she accepting the invitations? Seems like you both are sending “signals”. Shame on you guys!
C’mon, let’s get it together.

Heff - greatest comment, EVER!
Jillian - I’d like to respond to your comment, but I’m still in so much awe of Heff’s comment. I mean, really, how can anybody follow that?
April 18, 2008 at 3:00 pm
I will respond to Jillian for you. I remember the “chocolate fountain” incident, because of a comment by WIGSF, she seemed to think myself and possibly others were showing up. Last week, I am unsure, I haven’t talked to Janet.
I don’t want to make it sound like Janet doesn’t like WIGSF, they have such great conversations but I am pretty sure she doesn’t LIKE wigsf. I am sure you know what I mean.
April 18, 2008 at 3:02 pm
Oh and I am not responding to Heff’s comment, he doesn’t know me and really this isn’t about me, this is about WIGSF (at least my blog was).

Dear Bob,
It sounds like you’re a great guy. If I only I were single…
Good luck finding a girl who appreciates you.
Cheers,
Spark.

This Bob fella you speak of actually sounds like a Bob I know.
I’m friends with his roommate, he tells me he can’t breathe with out Bob wanting to do it with him. This Bob I know also does not have a girlfriend.
April 18, 2008 at 10:16 pm
I think it’s extremely possible for a guy to be ‘just friends’ with a girl. But the fact that you’re both single, and use each other for dinner events… I’d say somebody’s interested in somebody. Bob, I know a really hot redhead… seriously, the prettiest redhead I’ve ever seen, only she’s 20 and isn’t exactly single. Just for the record though, brunettes are awesome too…
April 18, 2008 at 10:24 pm
Grace, I know brunettes are great.
sarebeth, this will blow your mind but my real name isn’t actually “Bob”
April 19, 2008 at 9:14 pm
Bob’s right, redheads are great. Smells like victory.
April 20, 2008 at 6:41 am
Come on now, can’t you two boys just “hug it out?”
April 21, 2008 at 12:38 am
Give me like 3 years and a bottle of hair dye and I totally fit. He watches The Office, right? I think I read that on here the other day. Pretty sure that’s my only requirement for a boyfriend.
April 21, 2008 at 12:56 am
This comment thread has turned epic.
Too bad I got nuttin.
April 21, 2008 at 8:01 am
Jessica - I don’t hug.
wiwille - I know, I’m not even sure how to respond to some of these comments.
maxie - low standards, eh?
Woozie - I just had a real nasty image of a black Robert Duvall going down on the redhead from sex in the city. Look what you done.
Grace - she doesn’t use me for dinner events. Its much easier for a woman to dig up a stiff for those sorts of things than it is for a guy. For cryin’ out loud, I used to use Bob for those things. And you don’t gotta tell me brunettes are great. I’ve always liked Joyce DeWitt over Suzanne Somers. Sure, neither of them can hold a candle next to Priscilla Barnes, but Priscilla is a work of art.
Sarebeth - everybody knows a Bob.

My mind has just been blown!
