The Kacy Fan Club

My friend Annie asked me a question today. She asked if I knew Kacy (ie personally, met face to face).


I told her that Kacy is Heidi's sister, that I lived with Heidi after graduation and that my sister was best friends with Heidi so, yes, technically I have briefly met Kacy in person probably once or twice...although if I had been a blogger at that time, I would have been far more star struck and would remember it more clearly as I would have acted like a total nerdy idiot. This post should make up for that.


I've blogged before how much I love reading Kacy's posts (and the other bloggers at Light Refreshments Served) and admitted that I was hesitant to comment on her posts because of one reason or another...and Kacy actually commented and told me to comment! That was a happy day.


Now, I don't know if Kacy actually looks at my blog or if Heidi looked, saw the post about Kacy and told her about it. But, either way, I am here to inform Kacy that she has one very special fan who once "dreamed of babysitting for Kacy" before she had her own baby.


Annie wanted to know if you, Kacy, are indeed as awesome as you seem via blog. (I'm going to guess, yes, based on this post alone.) Also, Annie will be attending a farewell in your ward, but she may be too bashful and starstruck to form coherent sentences. She looks like this:

And her baby is adorable...even though she screams like she is possesed by a demon...I'm sure it's an adorable demon!! (winky face). And Maren's cute baby smiles more than make up for it.

I told her that if she meets you, she can just tell you that it's totally okay to be friends because she was roommates with me and my sister was roommates with your sister...because that's funnier and less simple than saying "my old roommate used to live in your sister's basement!" It also makes me sound less creepy, which I'm a fan of.

Other quotes from Annie regarding her current stalker-like status:

"I want to sit at her feet and bask in her hilarious light!" and

"I love that her baby's name is Ellen. That's my youngest sisters name. We have so much in common!"

So, Kacy, if you ever see Annie (specifically at the farewell of one Rob Magleby) know that she is totally cool and not stalking you.

**I should mention we also talked about how funny we think she is...and this guy. And how one of my favorite quotes has to do with both of them. "My best guess: He has bees in his head, and the bees are crazy." Find it here.

No more waiting...

She's here! and she's adorable!

Congrats Annie and Simon. I can't wait to make her some presents.

I'm DYING to know...

is she here yet?

Annie may or may not have had a baby....may or may not be currently in labor.

I hope someone blogs about it in a timely fashion.

intro cont.

I forgot to mention that Annie's husband, Simon, has a "lack of butt" as we liked to call it. Literally. There is nothing back there. Except maybe there is now...three years or so later? That will probably be one thing I always remember about Simon...which is kind of sad when you think about it. Also, it is funny.

Introducing

Annie!!

It's kind of odd how I know Anne. I actually was much closer to her (now) husband, Simon. I used to hang out with Simon and Joey. I think Simon and I spent more time at Megan and Miri's apartment then some of their other roommates. We knew the combination and would make ourselves at home. People would knock on the door and often find me, Simon or Jonathan just chillin' while the rest of the girls were out. One particular night, we went to a Relief Society activity while Simon stayed in 154 and watched Charade all by his lonesome. I believe Miri even wore his shoes to that activity but now I can't recall why.

Funny memories I have with Simon actually have a lot to do with Wal-mart. Like the one time we went and for some reason we decided Simon was in love with a toilet brush. Or the time Simon and Joey bought a small ironing board and used it as a gun...because apparently boys can make anything into a gun (kind of like Megan's nephew this weekend kept eating his cheese into a gun shape then shooting at us while he danced around the living room). Also, we spent a lot of time hanging around in The Hall. One time, Simon ate a pan of brownies with his face. That was when I was sad about something (which I hate to admit was probably boy-related) and I was talking to Simon and he said we should eat peanut butter and jelly sandwiches because those always cheer you up. Except I don't think I had bread and there was a pan of brownies to eat so that's how that happened.

Then came Annie (she's the one next to me with the short hair and white shirt). Anne was friends with Joey. Joey introduced Simon and Annie and the rest is history. They had a whirlwind romance - of course not by BYU standards - and Annie needed to find a place to live for a short period of time. So she moved into my apartment! At the time, Sarah, Jamie and I were all getting ready to move away at the end of the summer. We were all very happy living with each other. We each had our own bedroom and we knew each other's weird habits. But Annie was a happy addition. Mostly because she didn't spend hours on the couch making out with Simon (who was now her fiancee). I kid. Really she was laid back and funny and nice and that's the kind of people we like.

The best story from being roommates with Annie was the first time I sat on her bed. She shared a room with Jamie. One night, Simon and Annie were out and Jamie and I were listening to music on Annie's bed - it was clear of clothes and junk and closer to the floor. Annie came home and Jamie had gotten off her bed but for some reason I felt the need to announce to Annie that I was sitting on her bed. Now I can't remember what I said exactly, but it was awkward and funny. Like I thought she would get really mad at me...although I didn't think that at all. This is where I hope Annie comments to clarify this story because really it was funny.

So now Simon and Annie are married and expecting baby Maren in June. Seven weeks!! Annie is amazingly entertaining. I know she will have plenty to write about. At least she had better. The expectations are pretty high. But no pressure.
