SHE WROTE: Bob Shops
It was quite a day. We spent the morning trying to explain the partnership to the image consultant, and then tonight I find the Cherries have found the perfect description in the news item about Golan and Aochan complete with a photo that we should use on our books:

This afternoon, Bob drove me around and showed me what the land around Agnes's house looked like, and now I know why she bought it because it's beautiful. Also, Hilton Head is cold and I hadn't brought a kicking-around jacket so Bob took me into a store that had sweatshirts and even helped me find one. Yes, folks, Bob shopped. You tell him what you want--a sweatshirt that zips up the front--and he finds it. "This one?" "No, that's depressing." "How can a sweatshirt be depressing?" "It's gray." The only other one I could find was a pink one that said "Hilton Head," but I have some standards. And then over on the other side of the store they had some that were green or orange (somebody insane picked those colors) but they said "Life is Good," and face it, I've got a damn good life, so I bought a green one. And Bob never even tapped his foot. This is a good guy.
Oh, and here's the window in my bedroom when I woke up this morning:
And let's hear a big round of applause for Bob who found the place. Essentially, he's doing everything right.
Of course, we haven't been in a car together for longer than forty-five minutes yet, so stay tuned.
You know, we can't keep up this insane blogging pace. I'm just telling you, don't get to expecting daily posts because sooner or later, we're going to drop in our tracks.
I'd write more but there's a pool table up here and I'm going to go play. All by myself because everybody else went to bed, but solo pool is very Zen.

Loved the pic and story. Need I ask which of you is which?
Bob gets you a mansion.
Bob has useful ideas about yachts.
Bob even shops without griping.
Bob is clearly a god in human form. All hail Bob.
Tal, mole girl, you're just jealous. ;)
Jen, you can't stop blogging--what am I going to do during my morning coffee, chocolate snacks, dinner wine?! No other place can I learn stuff about exfiltrating full brains and the Zen of solo pool! I suppose I can write but what fun would that be?!
I think the sweatshirt choice is perfect!
Amazing view!
Aw, you could have expected the gray sweatshirt--notice many other colors around Hilton Head? The houses, the cars--everything's muted. My husband and I just got back from visiting his parents, who live there, and we both agree that we would never fit in. Though the ocean's beautiful. Have you been to the swamp in Hilton Head Plantation yet? Or to the wildlife refuge off-island? They're both beautiful. We even saw gators in the last one. Glad you're enjoying your trip.
But has Bob taken you to Signe's Bakery yet????

Have you no compassion for all the blog addicts you have created? =)
The great thing about taking Bob shopping is you aren't married so he doesn't care about the price-tag :)
And I'm sorry but whenever you mention the pool table I just end up thinking about 'Welcome to Temptation'. Sorry!
Wow, kudos to Bob! That view is fantastic!
The cool thing about playing pool by yourself.... you can mess up and no one calls you on it.

I would live in a cardboard box as long as I could wake up to a view like that every morning. I think I was a mermaid in a past life.
Wow!
I think Jenny and Bob are staying in my dream house!!!
I don't know why, but I see Bob as Golan. Or is that what you intended?
That view pic? Very Maxfield Parrish. Where are the impossibly colorful babe? Oh, wait. That would be Jenny. Bob is so perceptive.
