Housewarming at Eric and Ivy's
The story behind my connection to Eric and Ivy is a strange one. Now-a-days, I'm just one of many friends, but in the beginning, I was the guy who helped them buy a TV and shipped it to them when they lived in Michigan! The story goes on, because when the TV arrived, it had a gaping hole in the side, as if a fork lift had skewered it. Hard to believe a brand new TV could come that way. So to get my money back, or their money actually, they had to ship it back, first. For the next month or two, we tracked the TV, as it moved from Michigan all the way back to the Sony warehouse in Tennessee.
Fast forward to November 2004, they bought a new house and are six months from getting married. Interestingly enough, Eric is a fellow Bruin, and actually a neighbor on the same floor in my old apartment building back in college, but I didn't get to know him until after college. Even more twisted, Ivy is my friend Jen's roommate from college. How small of a world is that!?!?
We all got tegether for their housewarming Saturday night, and these are some of the pictures from the night. At one point, we were playing poker around the coffee table, when Jen dropped a chip behind the sofa. Mike made her feel bad enough to get under the sofa to get the chip back, so what do I do? I grabbed her foot and pulled her under the coffee table. Poor Jen..... hehehe (evil grin) =P
