Ed, worried that the big ass dog will shake Trevor and kill him grabs and holds Trevor in his arms. The evil dog has Trevor’s head in his jaws, Trevor has a death grip on the bad dog’s mouth and tongue. A woman on the street – who knows the bad dog is bad, kicks the big dog until he let’s go of Trevor. Trevor has blood coming out of the top of his head. Ed’s adrenalin is through the roof – and before I get in the house, he meets me outside to go to the bank and make a deposit.

Undoubtedly a good thing as I freak out as he tells me the story. If I went up and saw the bloody dog to start with I would have had a little nervous breakdown. As it is, Trevor is sluggish – but okay. Eddie is taking him to the Vet this morning – but Trev is fully up on his shots.

And we have company coming over.
And we have company coming over. .
So first a friend from Ed’s school in Wisconsin, Thurmond comes by. We drink (maybe too much) as all the adrenalin from the dog drama wears off. Then Todd (of Alex and Todd) comes up. Now he was suppose to be at dinner with us and Jamie (Mascot of the Month) but she can’t come.

We know Alex and Todd through Walker – who also went to school with Ed in Wisconsin; but Alex and Todd are from here (well Alex is from Ireland – but here now). Todd and Walker’s wife (Kerri) used to work together at Continental. Todd brought a friend, Lorenzo who is ½ French and ½ Italian, living in London and here at a training class. Which is what brought Thurmond to this fair city as well.
.
We just get through those introductions and settling down, as JoeBan – here for a different training class – shows up with Katie. Now it get’s confusing. JoeBan is a friend of Walker’s from school. But since he still hangs out occasional with Walker, he has meet Todd and Alex. Katie is in town from Chicago for a training class. She is a Kiwi from Christchurch New Zealand. Introductions are made, many people ask where this mysterious “Walker” is (he now lives in Boston, but he is a pilot based in Newark – don’t ask).

Before you can say skip to my Lou. Alex, Todd’s boyfriend, originally from Ireland comes in. Before the drinks can finish being poured, Stephanie shows up. Stephanie is Randy’s friend. I don’t know why she was in New York last night – visiting or lives here – by this time I was a little lost. But I do remember that she is from Australia originally.

So we all 12 troop over to Ollie’s Noodle house to sit around one of those huge tables and laugh and eat and drink.
