BIO

eddie morr is the middle child of... well.. a lot of children. five to be exact. raised in a typical crazy irish household, his mother was the fort-keeper and his father worked a lot. he grew up with siblings he hated, cousins like siblings, and hatred for sharing his space and his peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, but they made it work.

throughout his early life, eddie learned to use charm and wit to gain what he wanted and it worked to get him a pretty pleasant life, or at least one that he has no complaints about. though he has two older brothers, his parents chose to name him after his father - edward john morr jr. this carried a heavy weight of him to not be too messed up, but ultimately from the age of four on, eddie was a bit of a hellion that caused his parents a lot of grief.

when it came to high school years, eddie was the cliche jock. his parents raised a proud boy, immersed in football and family. the morr family carried a legacy throughout his entire school years, his older brothers being well-behaved, good students involved in activities. most of the time, eddie was on the right track. when it came to senior year, he had it all: the scholarship, the girl, the friends. it all fell apart with an ill-fated sex act where he lost his girl, and then his will, and blew off the remainder of his high school career.

eddie never wound up going to college, and instead started working all of his various jobs, when he found his niche in fish. as a kid, he'd always been interested in aquariums, but he met ted roberts and his experience changed. ted owned a company that did fish tank installation and maintenance and took eddie under his wing. eddie remained an off-the-books employee until ted retired in 2014.

formerly a bit of a douchebag, eddie cruised through several part time jobs and even moonlighted as a small-time pill dealer while he was trying to find his footing. he slaved and saved through a bunch of jobs as a waiter at a job that caused him to hate buffalo wings, a walmart greeter and several positions at the local supermarket before he had enough to hit the ground running. he went through workaholic phases where he would do nothing but work a few jobs at a time, building up savings to start his own business.

after another rough break up where a girl he vowed to love cheated, eddie set fire to the thought of settling down with just one woman. he hopped from woman to woman without much of remorse before eventually reuniting with his high school ex-girlfriend, who he sort of fell into a haphazard relationship with after so many years of being apart. the good ol' asshole personality has the tendency to surface when he's tested, tired or uncomfortable, but he tries to keep it under wraps and keep his cool.

currently, he shares an apartment with a stranger-turned-friend craigslist find and spends much of his time running his own aquarium building business that's turned lucrative in the past six months to the point that he's comfortable enough letting the reigns loosen a little. he proudly has been able to launch smallmouth aquariums into a real business.

in 2012, he adopted phyllis, an older rescue dog that had been found in the snow in downtown ann arbor. upon noticing the conditions of most shelters, he and a friend decided to start a rescue operation, "phyl's pals", named after his #1 girl. these days, his focus is solely on his fish business, leaving the rescue in better, more focused hands. however, he does still spend a lot of time doing what he can for the pet life of ann arbor.

eddie is an uncle to 8 nieces and nephews, with two more on the way. at the stage he is in his own life, kids are not currently on the table. however, he's pretty comfotable being the cool uncle and often spends a lot of his time helping his siblings out with carting the kids around and caring for them. his favorite (though he'd never say it) is his niece nora, who has enough sass for a teenager in her toddler body.
