Background info:
Julia was born in southern California but is a norcal girl through and through, raised in the bay area from the tender age of 10 months. The San Jose Sharks and San Francisco Giants are her obsessions, and will curse any southern California team no matter the sport. Julia earned her B.S. from California Polytechnic State University in San Luis Obispo. After giving Colorado a go for a year she returned to California and set down roots in the east S.F. bay area where she began work as an environmental chemist. She was happy, but something was missing. Then she met a boy named Damien…

Damien is a Florida boy and often gets razzed for his Florida pronunciations. Pen is apparently pronounced “pin” and Tent is “tint”…etc, etc. Damien earned his B.S. from Cal Berkeley, and for that he is proudly accepted by the heavily Cal oriented family of a certain girl. Go Bears! and just to be fair…Go Seminoles! (Damien’s fam is a FSU family) Damien began work for Contra Costa Mosquito and Vector Control District where he worked his way up to Vector Ecologist. He was happy but something was missing. Then one day…he met a girl named Julia…

Now on to the story of how they met:

Once upon a time there was a dude named Rob. Rob had a friend named Damien, whom he met at Cal, Berkeley. Rob also had a co-worker named Julia. Damien and Rob would go backpacking, snowboarding, and hang out in the way friends do, and subsequently Julia would hear stories of Rob’s adventures with this Damien character. At first she thought Rob had an unhealthy obsession with this Damien because she heard an awful lot about him. This sparked curiosity. Who is this Damien? She wondered. At the time, Julia and Rob’s place of work had a beer Friday policy where they were allowed to hang out and drink beer on the bench out front. One fateful Friday, a slightly intoxicated Julia called Rob to come drink out on the beer Friday bench with her and a few other coworkers. Rob was with Damien! ‘You should both come!’ She exclaimed. It was the perfect opportunity to meet the infamous Damien. Mr. Infamous and Rob showed up and looked a little scared of the slightly intoxicated girls on the bench. Tapping the seat next to her, Julia motioned Damien over with what was to be the beginning of something very special. ‘Have a seat’ she said…
