Everyone loves a Bob.

My sister loves this Bob. She makes me listen to him when we drive because I gave up music for lent (but she didn't). I like this Bob too, but I have bad memories of my mom blaring him before school when I was a kid. I'm not a morning person, and I wasn't back then.

My mom loves this Bob. She can't get enough of America's Funniest Home Videos, especially the videos of babies and wedding mishaps. I will always be thankful for this Bob making my mom laugh again (and his truly inspiring work with the Olsen twins).

And then the search for your purse, your shoes, your keys, your coat, standing with all these things by the doorway, trying to decide whether or not to say good night... ...Just the thought of it exhausts you, and when you contemplate even the first of these moves--the turning back of the covers--you realize the imp
