Another moment from the weekend.  This one took place at the Muddy Pig and features Mike, who lives at Laurel Avenue in the room I occupied during the summer of 2008.  He lived there with Chris and Ian until Ian left for a semester in Argentina.  Now Ian’s room is occupied by Mike’s friend McClain.

Last Thanksgiving, Sarah and I decided to send letters to the Laurel Ave boys, and she drew a lovely portrait of the three of them.  They cherished it and kept it on their fridge.  Recently, Sarah decided it was time that portrait got an update:

Anyway, Mike is a funny dude and an EMT, which means he has lots of gross medical stories, one of which I made him share at the Muddy Pig.  It was about a hernia.  And balls.  Combined.
