The other day I was thinking back to the time I lived on Jefferson Street in Stevens Point. At that time I lived in the upstairs of a two story house with Smelly Kelly but she isn't important to this story. The people downstairs I remember vaguely as two guys and a blonde woman, a baby and a dog. Now nothing unusual really happened with the neighbors, they were mostly quiet, except for their radio. However, the only reason I bring this up is that I had suspected I know those same people today in different circumstances.
Huh? I'm sure you're asking. Let me explain.
As most of you all know I have a friend named Rich (or turd monkey, or if you're Jennifer monkey turd). He currently lives with his brother in Plover, ironically his house is directly behind a house Jake and I were looking at to buy but I digress. Now Dan (Rich's brother) is married to Shelly the Shrew. She is a blonde woman.
Now I have been to Rich's house a few times most recently two weeks ago when he wanted to chat, drunk chat is more like what happened, but again I digress. As I was sitting there talking with him I noticed pictures of a dog. A German Shepard. Now the dog of the people who lived below me was also a German Shepard. Not unusual but it must have triggered something.
Today as I was driving my friend Rich to blow, I asked him how long his brother was living in his house now? He said about 7-8 years. Now I lived on Jefferson Street about 7-8 years ago...then I asked what street he lived on before that. He said, Jefferson. He said he lived there with him, and then Dan met Shrew. I said was it a yellow house? He said yes.
Now it is really ironic to me that 8 years ago I was living above Rich and his brother and the Shrew, Gage the baby and Bandit the dog and didn't even know it. (I'm not a social butterfly, I left them alone and they left me alone.) This is why I constantly thought their engagement picture was familiar to me. They had slipped one under our door one day (I think it was a neighborly gesture or something). I never kept it since I didn't know these people but I guess I remembered it.
And every time I saw this picture at Dan's house I was always trying to place where I knew it from. Now I know, they were my neighbors and I never even knew it.
I might have to ask Rich about who played that radio so loud...
I guess it really is a small world.
