Thompson Apartment
MJ
Some random memories from this place:
- Eating blueberry muffins because they were cheap
- Knockoff brand cereals from Aldi
- Having the electricity turned off
- Having my bike (GT Pro Performer!) that Mom had on layaway for months stolen from the back porch
- The old man downstairs who would knock his broom against the ceiling when we made too much noise
- Being finally able to afford cable again
- Losing a fight that a lot of people watched
- The long walk to Matt's or Paul's
- Double Dare
- The Push-button stove and broken metal ice trays
- Eric's strength training method: a dumbbell bar with a string tied to it and a weight at the other end
- Playing original Metroid on an 8" black and white tv
- Come sit on my lap
- Run DMC's Tougher than Leather
- Sneaking money into Mom's purse
- Rygar for Christmas
- Watching headlights come down the road hoping they were Uncle Mike
- Getting stuck at the Village Square light on the bus home from school...it was so long
- 3 on a bike (1 on the front pegs and 1 on the back pegs) and sharing walkman headphones
- BBSes
- Living Colour's Vivid
